Dark and Light, I feel its as simple as that. Dark is "scary", Light is "warm" - one feels bad, one feels good. People get SO uptight over words. And labels. People are generally wound way too tight over such things in my opinion. Like cursing, for example, "but the bible says..." yeah, um, I'm pretty sure the word "f*ck" didn't exist in Aramaic, the language Jesus was said to speak. Words kids, no big deal. Sticks and stones and such, eh? Let's try to thicken those skins a little, shall we? And likewise, I'm pretty sure nobody was thinking of racial division when some of these metaphors were invented, like "black plague" or whatever. I mean, hell in those ancient days, we were hardly this giant multicultural melting pot. These people were over here and those people were over there, and I doubt most had ever even seen one of each other. Another thought provoking read as always. edit: PS: *There will probably be a day when some group tries to hijack all the colors of the rainbow and claim those as theirs.* This made me laugh out loud a little :)

Sircork I always enjoy reading your comments here on the daily Dose. Color is a subject that gets way to much attention for sure, hell, I even drew attention to it with this daily dose. Honestly, I would like to see color disappear completely from descriptions but that probably wouldn't change anything in the grand scheme of things but it might. I don't know if you have been around enough here but "guzbuck" is a good wholesome word for that nasty F-bomb the people also hate to see and hear but love to do. So feel free to use until people discover it and start bad mouthing it.

Does it translate to Aramaic? Because I'm told that's a no fly zone. :)

No, not that I am aware of. I created that word last year or early this year as part of a writing contest for Hard Fork, a new series that is being filmed. I googled that word and nothing came up in google, bing, or yahoo. Websters didn't have anything either in the dictionary. So I ran with it giving it my own definition. Now since I have been using it there are several of my daily dose columns that show up on a google search for the word "guzbuck" . I know that google has different results for different parts of the world so I don't know where you are or what those might be. I do know that a follower of the Daily Dose from Berlin Germany googled it where he is and said that he found it listed in his results. In fact he said, "It looks like you must have created this word" since the only results it showed were daily dose columns. It might be considered a "no fly zone" soon, just like the F-Bomb is in some places, that word doesn't fly well in schools and courts and such. So in answer to your question, no... not that I am aware of.

Oh my word @sircork, it's already happened on the southernmost tip of Africa! Here in South Africa where have eleven official languages we're called The Rainbow nation, a term that came about after the fall of apartheid depicting our multicultural society. Mr Papper, see where you've taken us now, or is it @sumatranate? I believe Archbishop Desmond Tutu coined that phrase and Madiba carried his dream of a Rainbow nation forward when he first became president.

Sadly the press only report on the bad stuff and that's how the rest of the world sees us.
