    I find gold tacky no matter what, but slapping it everywhere is so weird. It’s like someone playing the sims and they need to up the resell value of their home as quick as possible.

      Even worse, they want to be constantly reminded of the value of their surroundings to updoot their own ego. They outsource their self-esteem to material world around them, to other people’s remarks, and never feel themselves complete in solitude. Their cheapo-looking overpriced golden toilets, cruxifictions and eagles are show pieces of how they are fragile, limited and sad.

      My housemate actually painted a table here with white and gold. It looks good. But, that’s the only gold thing in the house, and my house is garbage

      Also, I think the table was recovered from actual garbage and restored.
