Random Thoughts VIII: The Ocho

you still in Vegas, Pants?

besides my paint purgatory, fixing what I thought was a simple issue with me not being able to access something at work may mean a complete wipe of my info. I should learn this afternoon whether or not I have to reinstall all my programs and copy all my data back from the backup location. This is fun.
 
this dude on FB who I would probably classify as someone I would not be surprised to learn is voting Trump, has posted a pro-Trump and pro-Clinton video on FB in the past two days and has also indicate support for Johnson. I can't figure this one out.
 
these two colors (which look even more different IRL), are the same color matched from the same chip. Left done by Home Depot, the other by Sherwin Williams. Yet, the other color I had done by SW the same day, same person..........matches the chip perfectly. And neither are quite right. Hard to tell in the pic, but the left version (which we like much better) has a slight green tinge to it which we didn't want. So IDK what next because the next most similar options seem super orange. But, since the chip for this seemed slightly orange and came out greenish at HD, maybe we try the next orangiest and it will be right.


 
why it be rotated?! Top is HD, bottom is SW. I showed this to the HD lady last night and she's like yeah that's not even close to the chip. It honestly looks like the color from the bottom of the set of four on the chip but we double-checked the label.

That might be a bit bright for a baby nursery

Edit: also, I see no difference

Chips and oranges sound delicious right now. I shouldn't be coming into work at 6:00.

Can't wait until he posts Joe Exotic and the Nutrition Party candidate videos.

Top is same. Bottom is more mustardy.
 
I promise they look super different in person. And also less obnoxious. Using flash didn't help so I went with lowlight.

Basically going for this type of color:
