what the fuck is up with the lighting they use in stores. yesterday i bought a new backpack and it looked dark grey and light grey. now that im looking at it now it looks purple and sky blue. i do this all the time. like last year i bought this shirt and it looked dark navy blue in the store but it turned out being purple. i hate that shit.

thats almost as bad as restruants/bars that have really loud music playing all the time. i go there to relax and talk with friends, i dont want to have to shout at them all night and get a headache

You are correct. I went to a bar and picked-up a fine young gal. I woke up next to her in the morning and she looked like a mudpuppy.
Fuck bar lighting.
I have never been to bed with an ugly woman but I have woke up with a few.

haha! i'll have to remember that.

i hate hate hate the volume level of music in bars. i don't have a very commanding voice, so i have a really hard time talking loudly enough for people to hear me. i can talk for about 5 minutes before my voice wears out and i've lost it. i have to mime after that. why can't bars just play music at a reasonable level? you can't socialize in that kind of noise, it's annoying.

The quote is from my harley riding Uncle Pete. God rest his soul.

Speaking of changing colors. My wife has hazel eyes but sometimes they appear to be blue. She might be possessed. :eek:

Maybe you should only wear those clothes when you go to department stores... that way you'll always look like you thought you did.

Or maybe you're just color blind or something.

If it seems like it's going to matter at all, I take the shirt or whatever over by a window so some natural light can get on it.

Or I wrap the fluorescent tubes in minus green to balance the tungsten levels before I try something on. My key grip is a big help whenever I shop.

I used to work at Express when I was younger. We had skinny mirrors (n) ...really sucks when you get home and the clothes don't look as good on you as they do in the store.

That's not bar-lighting. That's beer goggles. Drink responsibly.

i hate store lighting too, because it highlights every imperfection on your body when you're trying on clothes, and there's mirrors showing it at every angle, and you automatically go on a diet, and then when you get home you look fine :confused:
