I did that once. Not intentionally, though. It shifted back and forth between blue, purple and red .

Funny you mention this; we recently moved our pc upstairs (my sister moved out, hellooo private gaming room!!) and in the process I remembered that our monitor cable is fucked and the entire rig should never ever be moved because now the screen repeatedly turns purple and i can't get it back into the exact right position to stop it doing that.

The morale of the story; if it's broke fix it already!
