Looks like I did exactly the same as @OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world

I don't get blue eitherβ€”too old, I guess. Not heard of half of purple in that context either...

My thoughts on purple for you

::: spoiler Purples as I see them Top of the line - Best of the items.

Top of the morning - Think it’s an old timey greeting. Top of the morning to ya.

Top of the hour - on the hour, so 5:00

Top of the Pops - the only thing I think it could mean is in reference to the BBC music charts show. So it’s possibly a music term for top of a music chart. :::

Yeah, now you stated them like that, I should've got it. Too much focus on Blue and didn't have enough lives to try Purple group

I saw what they were getting at with three of the blue items, but ran out of guesses trying to find the fourth. Oh well, the rest was too British for me, anyway.
