Oh yeah? Well way back in the day, all we had was one color: black! And we liked it! We sat around for billions of years in total blackness.
No KKK back then, let me tell ya. We were all brothers in the good old days. Except Ted. He talked with a lisp so we all laughed at him and pointed in random directions.
Anyway, one time some odd fellow came along and said: "Let there be light!" And, I shit you not, there was light! He should sue those Clapper guys for royalties.
Ever since then, divorce rates have increased. Turns out that when you're no longer dating in total oblivion, personality doesn't count nearly as much as a great set of hooters.
But I digress, now you children want things like PIXELS lit with different COLORS or SHADES. And not just ONE pixel, mind you, THOUSANDS of freaking pixels THIRTY times a minute. Hell, I waited billions of years and all I got was light, and you want a backlit pixelized display? Kids these days...
... but four of my best friends who also happen to have CS degrees are all left handed, and so am I.
Despite this evolutionary advantage, their enjoyment of Celine Dion cds ensures that they will perish in the next ice age, because evolution is a Pete Fountain fan.
I'm pretty sure it damns them to an eternity in hell too, but I can't really fathom a hell any worse than listening to those accursed CDs. Especially the French ones.

Tops in the world, not tops in the ground. The guys you're complaining about are fertilizer. They're dead, Jim!
