> Violet occupies the highest frequency of the visible light spectrum with a whopping frequency of 668-789THz6. With such a tremendous frequency, you would expect violet to be everywhere - but in reality, it's not found in the natural world with great prevalence. Lavender, eggplant, grape flavoured NerdsTM, and amethysts are among the few naturally occuring violet things.

This is a parody, isn't it? Because "frequency of a wave" has nothing to do with how common it is in nature. It's about how often a wave would switch between high and low, if you measured its amplitude at a fixed point.

Also, grape flavoured NERDS don't occur in nature.

I wasn't sure whether I was reading parody or mild Time Cube insanity until I got to this bit.

I am not a nerd. Nerds are smart.
