Why is Everything So Boring Now?

My buddies house is pink and blue with a lot of triangles. Its scary.

inthe beggining when he was talking about the type of boredom i could not relate because im painting a mural on giagantic paper while watching this

17:13 I heard one of my fav bands

Im only a teen and i agree with you broo

My cousin turned her house into a color doll house, she literally out colorful blankets on her walls. She refuses to be in this time period.

18:26 on the subject of movies: i think this is why the recent Project Hail Mary movie made such a huge splash, because it’s BRIGHT and it’s COLORFUL and it’s MADE WITH PRACTICAL EFFECTS – obviously not entirely but way way more than typical directors would in today’s current climate

Capitalism

Such a bad choice of film to show a lack of creativity over the years. Netflix released a series about this film, with the same techniques used….

The new Superman definitely had actual color gradient. The underlying theme behind everything being boring and colorless is that selling individuality to everyone requires that everything looks as “standard” as possible.

who up praying over this video

i have a very strict rule in my home that says if it can be cute instead of boring and bland, it’s going to be. i don’t care what it is. spoon rest? it’s a little pink bear. hammer? bright blue. rugs? all of them have cats on them. our bed? halloween blankets year round. towels? they’ve got bunnies or hearts or dinosaurs. my kitchen utensil holder is a strawberry. even our reusable straws are sparkly and colorful. i’m 33. and i will never change. my husband and i have always had such a fun, happy home.

i might not be able to change the world outside of my home to make it less boring, but i refuse to live in a home without a little stuffed charmander in my kitchen.

He mentions the see through game boys and controllers and I just look down at my blue see through Xbox controller lmao

Also because we constantly are bombarded by content. What was once enjoyable does not feel as enjoyable. It’s not like we have unlimited dopamine in a day.

Wasn’t this video like an hour long?

it's basically culture industry

I took a picture of the men in LA.. we need gaffers meme and sent it to my daughter, who wants to be a gaffer.

17:14 fuck patd or fueled by ramen or whoever for claiming the video 😞

Listening to 15:20 as working on UX design truly is an experience

This also happened to Disney games like the background is just black instead of the bright blue.

A lot of the buildings are also basic/grey/boring because so many places close and open so often that it's cheaper and easier to have every place look the same so they don't have to rebuild.

My first cellphone was a hot pink motorola bootleg. It had a radio antena I could pull out and legit watch TV in it. I miss that lil buddy every day

0:29 YOOO I WAS THERE😈

I am 66 and grew up in the 70s so yeah, there was color in my life. The kitchen was Pumpkin Orange. The livingroom was mostly windows so color was brought in with the furniture, gold couches, rust colored chairs, and of course avocado green. My mom crocheted a shag rug that was orange, pink, peach and red. My bedroom was pink, then lavender. Color was everywhere in the 70s. Our clothes, totebags, umbrellas and cars. My aunt's car was turquoise inside and out. Definitely noticeable. My first car in the 80s was beige. I once spent 45 minutes looking for it in a parking lot, it looked like every other beige car.
I went through the color phases as I grew up and moved away. There was the colonial blue and mauve of the early 90s into the 2000. When I renovated a little cottage in 2010, I went pastel. Through the years, as I repainted the cottage, every room is brighter with more of a jewel tone. Dusty pinks for the bedrooms. Blue for a tiny bathroom and a yellow kitchen named Sunny Days which has an orange under tone. I brought in the oranges, yellows, sage and jadite greens. It is cherry, cozy and full of warmth. A hug and balm for the soul. It helps that I have lots of vintage furniture. But I also have new items or re- perposed items.
I find beige, grays, white and black cold and hollow. The straight angles and lack of soft curves, worn woods and beautiful patinas just makes me sad. There is no thought to the design, no whimsy, no fun, no sense that someone loved this item before me and it has stood the test of time. It is design for an instant gratification society. That is heartbreaking.
