I had a sales woman in furniture store try and tell me not to buy a hot bubblegum pink loveseat because she wanted me to “think about the future”

Bitch, I am thinking about the future. I already got a hot bubblegum pink couch at home and now I need a loveseat to go with it.

when I first bought my house, I announced my decision to paint my bedroom purple. I had wanted a purple bedroom for thirty damn years, you fucking bet I was gonna have one now. My friends decided, for some reason, that I meant what one of them referred to as “14 year old girl purple” (through what’s wrong with the colors a 14 year old girl chooses, I don’t know, even if they’re not what I want as an adult). They didn’t believe me until they saw the color on the actual wall, even thought they helped me pick out paints. My mother, meanwhile, decided to get worried that if I painted my bedroom a “dark purple”, it would be “depressing”. As if, with an entire house to live in, I would spend all my time in the bedroom, which I wanted to be dark because I would be sleeping in there. In the damn dark.

I had like one, maybe two friends who were all like FUCK YEAH YOU PAINT IT WHATEVER COLOR YOU WANT, PURPLE BEDROOMS ARE AWESOME.

But when they actualy saw the finished bedroom, every single one of them was like, “Oh yeah, that’s really pretty.” (Well, the ones who supported me from the beginning were more like WOOHOO.)

And the moral of the story is: Fuck ‘em, please yourself. Either they’ll come around, or you can safely ignore every question of taste they opine about for the rest of time.

This applies to other adulting activities, too. When I was a kid, I decided that I wanted to have a wedding cake made of doughnuts. When I got older, I figured that I would be “mature” about it and get a traditional cake, which the older adults approved of. Now that I’m 25 and facing the possibility of actual marriage in the near future, I’m just like “marriage is a social construct but it comes with tax & insurance benefits, so just give me that goddamn doughnut cake.” If they don’t like it then they don’t have to come to my wedding.

I would like you all to view my office. I’m thirty and my rainbow room is awesome, people can fight me

I worked for three years in a home repair and supplies store paint department. Please, for the love god, paint your shit fun colors. True story, HGTV reprogrammed current home design culture to obsess over neutral colors like beige, gray, and whatever the fuck TAUPE (brown with a random color mixed in) happens to actually be.

The idea was that it would make your property worth more money and sell faster. What ends up happening is that we're not actually - living - in your house. You're basically living is the future house of someone else. It's your goddamn living area, decorate it the way that makes you happiest!!

THOUGH THERE ARE A FEW WARNINGS WITH COLORS!! As an actually certified interior paint specialist, I have to warn that:

1. Brighter colors will always take more coats of paint to get down correctly. Even the expensive premium paints will take 2+ coats, especially if you're trying to cover another color. In order to get the color bright enough, the paint companies have to use less primer in the can to make extra room for the colorant. This means you're be spending more money on more paint and potentially on primer too.

2. Darker colors are harder to cover if you ever decide to change colors later on. It's not impossible but again, you'll be spending more money on paint or on primer.

3. While HGTV is pretty bullshit in general, they are right in that bland wall colors can help the propertis sell better but it's not a must. Most potential buyers will want to repaint themselves anyways though having to cover very bright or dark colors can be seen as a hassle to some people. Same goes for wallpaper.

New Macbooks and Imacs will brick themselves if they think they're being repaired by an independent technician

Last year, Apple outraged independent technicians when they updated the Iphone design to prevent third party repair, adding a “feature” that allowed handsets to detect when their screens had been swapped (even when they’d been swapped for an original, Apple-manufactured screen) and refuse to function until they got an official Apple unlock code.

Now, this system has come to the MacBook Pros and Imac Pros, thanks to the “T2 security chip” which will render systems nonfunctional after replacing the keyboard, screen, case, or other components, until the a proprietary Apple “configuration tool” is used to unlock the system.

Apple does not tell its customers that the computers it sells are designed to punish them for opting to get their property repaired by independent technicians; the details of the T2 came from a leaked service manual.
