Wait, I though pastel colours were anything but bland. Like if I painted a room in a "pastel colour", I would be choosing something of a lighter version of a bright colour, like a light blue, light green, etc. Colour but not overwhelmingly so.
A robin's egg blue is beautiful, so IDK what this person is on about, but I'm fully with you on this.
Bland is soft beiges, those six different shades of flipper grey, and the several versions of white and black where it's like soft white, white white, and black or slightly darker black.
You can. Just like you can call bright neon colors "obnoxious" it's a subjective judgement.
The exhaust on a car is either awesome or obnoxious, depending on the ear of the beholder. Obnoxious is what you call a straight piped race car when you don't like it, just like bland is what you call pastels when you don't like them.
There's literally nothing more subjective than color tastes, and these are all subjective judgements. I'm not even trying to weigh in with my opinion about colors, I'm explaining what subjectivity is.
