Anti-Color

[Mirkwood Lodge]

I've been watching a lot of old black and white movies lately and I've realized that I think women are much more attractive in b&w. I don't think it's a difference in beauty standards between then and now. For example, I find Helen, from The Andy Griffith Show quite attractive in b&w, yet I think she's hideous in color. Does anyone else feel this way? Is there a know surgery to make a person color-blind?

Should I seek therapy?

I know what you mean. Mary Tyler Moore was much hotter on the Dick Van Dyke Show than she was on Mary Tyler Moore.

Or maybe it's just that she was much younger then.

Or maybe it was the fact that she was on a show with the word "Dyke" in the title which just turned me on.

I don't know. I'm weird. Pay no attention to me.

Dyke.....heh, heh....indeed....

Some chicks can look great in color and B&W. Audrey Hepburn comes to mind, ..... and that's about it.

Something weird I just relized, Dick Van Dyke's the only reason we ever use the words "Dick" and "Dyke" in the same sentence.

Imagin that when censorship gets out of control, the Dick Van Dyke Show will be retitled the Penis Van Lesbian Show just to be PC.

This is just me being weird again. That is all.

No it isn't. You're just being damn sensible. Yet again.

But she was pretty in "Breakfast at Tiffany's," the guy had this wierd orange-y skin, what was his name? Paul?
It was like George Hamilton skin tone, I saw a guy on the beach the other day who looked like that, some people are not afraid of skin cancer.

I thought the guys in my yearbook who had their senior portraits done in b&w looked better than the guys in color. The b&w just made them look more sophisticated.

That was an Oompa-Loompa.

[roxy18]

Daddy, I want an oompa-llompa and I want it now!

I don't think he was an oompa, he was like a male escort for that old, rich lady.

The title of this thread sounds rascist.

[colemanfrancisfan]

Only if you say it out loud.

[roxy18]

I know.
I ignored it for awhile because I was like, oh great somebody who is a white supremist.
I had no idea it was about this guy who likes people in b&w.

I like the b&w short "A case of Spring Fever" with coily, the spring sprite...no springs! haha

[colemanfrancisfan]

I wish that short was true. I wished for there not to be any annoying insects within a ten mile radius of me. Nothing happened.

[roxy18]

Sooo, you don't like annoying insects, eh? Well, son, you're gonna get it!
I'm insecty, the insect sprite!
Noooo insects! *whistles*

You'll be the first to die!

At least it's not like that time you wished for no muscle tone and never recovered...

[Unsavory]

Maybe because it's in black and white you can't make out skin imperfections like patches of discoloration, acne, and leprosy?

I don't see any other reason. I don't have trouble finding girls attractive in real life and on color TVs.
