Pay For Themselves

Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with those expensive double pane energy efficient kinds, in a beautiful yellow shade similar to my hair. But this week, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was complaining that the work had been completed a whole year ago and I hadn't paid for them.

Hellloooo? Now just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid. So, I told him just what his fast talking sales guy had told ME last year... namely, that in ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves!

"Helllooooo? It's been a year," I told him!

There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up....

He didn't call back. Guess I won that stupid argument.

@Acer_Vartan: (as if you wanted an answer)
Why would anyone get yellow tinted windows for their house?

It has been discovered, that blue light such as that from a computer monitor can interrupt your sleep cycle; the subconscious thinks of morning keeping the mind awake. Yellow and orange light seems to cancel out that effect and help you return to a normal sleep cycle. Yellow tinted glasses are even being used to help people with sleeping disorders.

umm...to contradict thattechguy (whether or not he's actually right), yellow and other bright colors of similar shade will excite a person subconsiously (just like red will make you angry), however, the color blue has a calming effect, as do other cool colors of a similar hue. that is why hospitals paint the walls light blue, to relax the patients during their stay. if they painted the walls yellow, no one would be able to contain themselves during that time they have doing nothing but lie in bed.

You can argue about the affects of different colored light on your subconscious, or you can admit that it doesn't fucking matter and you're wasting your time because nobody really gives a shit.

Oh, and people actually win court cases to the "pay for itsself" clause.
If someone ever says that, take it, because you don't actually have to pay for it once they say that.

@alondite

red doesnt neccessarily make you angry. the chinese and their neighbours in particular identify that as a colour of goodluck....thats why casinos have red carpet - now is that to piss off the guy who sold his house for a hand in black jack? or [since many gamblers are asian] make him sell his car because hes feeling lucky?

that was the smallest part of my counterpoint. it was used to accentuate what else i was saying. that being said, i am sure you have heard that bulls charge at the sight of red because it makes them angry. subconsiously it can make you angry, but it is also an archetype for passion, such as love or sex (which is why valentines have red on them, and hearts are red as well), and it can make you hungry. red and yellow mixed make you even hungrier. that is why McDonalds and most of the other fast food restaurants are painted those two colors.
