I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me want to have sex.

I can't see it as white/gold at all. It always looks like an overexposed photo of a blue/black dress to me. MY EYEBALL RODS STRONG!

Yeah, not once has it looked white/gold to me. Even in the left panel of the xkcd.

Because books.

I can't make it look white/gold, either. I can't tell if it would be marginally more attractive that way.

Double good news -- I got my official letter of employment from the bakery, and my schedule is not quite as grueling as expected, and I also got the official go-ahead to move forward with the freelance editing for Kensington's Lyrical imprint. Whoo!

If you know people writing good mysteries or women's fiction (and possibly suspense), I'll be looking at those genres.

That's great, Amy!

Same here. I even tried messing with the brightness on my screen. Blue/Black or faded Blue/Black.

Woo! Good news, Amy.

Also, yay for BoA doing the right thing, Maria!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The dress is blue and black at home, and white and gold at work. I think fluorescent lighting has something to do with it.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Things that confuse me: The United Way hopes to raise 1.4 million dollars from the campaign at my University. The United Way gives 1.8 million dollars TOO the University. Doesn't that seem like a huge waste of time and money.

Yeah, not once has it looked white/gold to me. Even in the left panel of the xkcd.

Most of the pics I've seen look white and gold, sometimes with blue shadow. One or two I've seen the blue/black. All on my phone in similar lighting, so who knows.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

People here can kiss my ass, FYI. "Here" my office, not here-here. They give me no information, don't respond to my emails, and then act like I should have had all of this information all along. I DON'T HAVE IT IF YOU DON'T GIVE IT TO ME.
