I started working on these, and then it took me a little while to remember that was horrible at drawing pixely things.

Anyone think they can make these suck less?

Ha, oh I am enjoying it. Just poking fun.

I don't like things that are fun or colorful.

It has to be both fun, and colorful. It is only colorful.

Aye, cap'n, you are correct. Colorful it is, but I wonder… what if he's colorblind, and thinks it's fun?

Here's a more serious answer:

I've always had a natural aversion to any kind of award. I guess it could be because I want people to judge me based on my character and actions rather than the symbols I've gathered. In school I hate the idea of grades because people (my parents especially) will judge my semester based on the number of A's and B's I accumulate; my actual projects and tangible accomplishments are secondary. That's just one example.

But really, it's just a feeling I've always had and I will always fall short in trying to explain it. I know the badges are just lighthearted fun (…right?)

I liked RC's badges, too. They should just be a little bit brighter, I think.

I think the solution is this:

!(p || q) would be read as

"I don't like things that are fun or colourful"

!p && !q would be read as

"I only like things that are both not fun and not colourful."

which is indeed logically equivalent

You've mistaken !p && !q for !(p && q) which would be

"I don't like things that are both fun and colourful."
