Everything was indeed brown.

There’s this meme from a while ago that observes the fact that the 80’s and early 90’s weren’t as colourful and flashy as most media make them out to be. In fact almost everything ranging from clothing to furniture to advertising was a drab shade ranging between dark brown to orange.
Every once in a while you’d get a toy or a household appliance that would be a bright neon colour and it would be considered hi tech advanced fancy stuff (until it broke the next day).
Nowadays you’d have to look hard for dark brown/orange drab stuff. They make dark brown/orange stuff but it usually is made of a veneer of fancy wood and it’ll cost you an arm and a leg. (And then it breaks the very next day)
Do - do you like the 5000k bulbs? Do people consider cool white lighting to be modern?
There's no way, no one likes the 5000k bulbs. They're for BMW drivers and aliens performing abductions
Oh to hell with 5000k bulbs, that's just too damn blindingly bright white! I just mean sensibly whiter and brighter than the inherently yellow color of incandescent bulbs.
