Groupon has released sales data for "adult toys." nudge, nudge. wink, wink. Apparently, their customers share @Barney's taste in color.

- @Cinoclav I'm expecting opulent outbursts of purple prose . . . @Barney's been holding it back, building it up, like so much turbulent water momentarily paused by an earthen dam.

- @MsELizardBeth I was thinking that purple was a favorite among manufacturers, thank you for confirming.

- @MsELizardBeth So, do the manufacturers make more in that color and that's why it sells the most, or do the consumers prefer that color and so the manufacturers make lots of it? I'm sure the manufacturers were aware of people's color preference long before Groupon was.

- @ChunkyBitz …or was purple just the cheapest dye available to the ol' silicone dong factory?
