Could someone explain how that originated?  I did a quick search, but didn't see any obvious start the pseudo meme it has become.

Is Dr. Conrad in the house?

Because it aint Graydammit

believe it started with the silver 86 C10's and everyone calling them gray.

Stop the music, no more calls, we have a winner.

"It's not gray, it's silver dammit".

Besides, just "Silver" is about as boring as black, blue or red.  Who wants to own a boring bike?  Hi Yo Silverdammit away!!!!!!!!!!!

He is but someone beat me to the answer.

Could it be that someone rides the vastly faster Silverdammit bike with ZX14 TBs?

I have heard that the other slower colors are called Dammit, but only after being spanked by a Silverdammit bike, usually along these lines "I just got spanked by a Silverdammit bike dammit"   Most often heard from the owners of the Harley colored bikes

I figured it was something like that.  Thanks for the edumecation!

Slunking down a sidewalk one snail looked at another snail and said hey bro what color is that shell, is it grey? The other snail yelled back to him "it's silverdammit"!

or was it because the other connie's kept passing them so quickly they couldn't tell?

Ah, see, I didn't know that history (being a C-14 owner with no interest at all in the C-10).

I thought the phrase was due to the fact that Gen 1 C-14 "Neutron Silver" is not really silver- it is a light, baby blue and that irritated owners who said "it is silver, damnit!"

You know, color blindness comes from your mother?

Good one Max!!

   I first heard the "it's silverdammit" in '94 from Steve Pronto. He rode a gray Concours,I mean "silverdammit". I'm sure it was around before that.

Blue Connies, still the fastest color!
 

Although there has been some debate between the Sonic Blue owners and the Neptune Blue owners as to which is faster...

Can't speak to the ZG-14 Blue, though, they are in a different league.
