I used to love "Fixer Upper" for the big reveals, but then I saw how much gets thrown out. It kinda ruined the fun for me once I pictured all those cabinets in a landfill. Now I just watch for the paint colors and skip the demolition parts lol.

I saw a beat-up copy of the board game Operation at a garage sale last weekend with a twenty dollar sticker on it. Maxt95, I get that some old things come back around, but a lot of this feels like people just wanting to cash in. That game was missing half the pieces. My parents' attic is full of scratched records and VHS tapes that are just clutter, not treasure. The hype makes folks see dollar signs where there's just dust.

Honestly, how long did it take you to actually learn those settings? I changed my wifi password last month and felt like a genius for a whole day, but then I tried to port forward something for a game and somehow turned off the internet for three hours. My router is probably older than some of my streaming subscriptions, and at this point I'm scared to even look at it wrong.

Nah I'd say bad planning is the root cause every time. Cheapness is just what happens when the original plan falls apart and they panic. The real problem is nobody thought things through from the start.

Wait, only two colors? That's the part that gets me. I always end up grabbing every tube on my desk when I try something like that. How do you even get a full sky gradient with just two? I guess maybe that's the whole point, not messing with a ton of mixes. It just seems so limited, but you're saying it works. That's wild that forcing it to be simple ends up looking so good and doing the job better.
