Paint Chips



So we're having our house painted. The outside.

So we do what any normal people would do.

We get paint chips!

Lots and lots of paint chips.

And we start picking out colors.

And then I notice Benjamin Moore's disclaimer. Paraphrased.

"Color on paint chip does not necessarily match color of actual paint."

What???

The paint chip has ONE purpose in life!! TO. MATCH. THE. COLOR. OF. THE. ACTUAL. PAINT.

As a nation we can pretend to land men on the moon but we can't match paint color to a cardboard chip????

This whole courtroom is out of order!!!

(The courtroom is done in a nice Cayman Lagoon)
