RE: Steem Basic Income Giveaway (Rose tinted...)

in #contest6 years ago

Oh, SNL and In Living Color. Sketch comedy in general. I thought it was the funniest thing, all original, and all great.
Now, even looking back at the old stuff, there are really only a few unique sketches, fewer great sketches, and even fewer great unique sketches.

But oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy I thought it was all incredible, and I still have trouble convincing myself it's never been all great.

Aaaah... never look back at old clips! I've had the same with old cartoons and movies...

I have a feeling that you might be the only one that really understood the "Rose tinted" idea... it must be a really specific idiom.

I'm reading the other ones. I see what you mean. I think it requires a very special kind of perspective to realize that one's own worldview is skewed.

Yes... sadly it is something that should be more widespread... that would solve certain problems!

Interesting! I wonder what our specific upbringing was that introduced us to that idiom.

On a side note, my mother, who doesn't figuratively wear rose-tinted glasses about anything, wears literal rose-tinted glasses.
