Most people would call sunlight Yellow. This means that yellow is a natural color. Turn on a lamp. Unless you're a pot-smoking hippy, you have a yellow light bulb and it's got a nice glow to it. BUT WAIT! You have to go to school! What's it like there?! OH FUCKING SHIT [IMG]http://www.rvandvansurplus.com/eshop/products/surface_mount_fluorescent_lights.jpg[/IMG] That's right, white. Not yellow, not OFF-white, not FUCKING BLUE. White. The worst color of all. You know what else is white that's bad? really hot lava/magma. Also Ice, which is as cold as the school facility that you're in. What color are the walls? white. The floor? probably white. It's like you're being educated by a fucking apple store. These lights are the reason that I can't pay attention In class. These soul-sucking, creativity crushing demon spawn bulbs of pain rot my eyes from the inside out and cause me permanent damage to my humanity. I shit you not, If there is unnatural light in hell, other than fire, it is lit by fluorescent lighting. What's even worse is when you're being blinded by whiteness, and the teacher taunts you by leaving the windows open to let the nice breeze roll in, and you can see the beautiful outside and hear the chirping birds and looks at the green trees and grass. Why, oh why, does the school use these satan bulbs of torture WHY I ASK YOU [B]WHYYYYYYYYYY[/B]
white light is beautiful
Because if a school looked like anything but a prison, I'd fall asleep.
They're far more energy efficient than incandescent bulbs.
Its not that bad bro
Wear yellow tinted glasses.
It does suck
I like fluorescent lighting, and if you have an LCD monitor, you are posting using a fluorescent backlight. :eng101:
its cheap and lasts for a long time
My school uses natural light most of the time, and only turns on the actual light when it's needed (Cloudy days, mostly). Chill out.
its because school is a place of innocence

We don't have it in private school! (high class laugh)
I hate yellow light, Its like I'm watching a bad hipster sepia toned movie.

White light is good. It means you're in heaven. Learning math and science has never been so peaceful.
I hate yellow light. Makes everything feel shitty to me.
As if every school is going to pay a few thousand bucks just to give the school a nice atmosphere.
AND THAT BUZZING SOUND They constantly have this electrifying sound and to turn them on, you flip a gigantic fucking switch. It only reinforces their cold, lifeless personality. They're all laughing at me from above

I hate it when a place is illuminated by bright white light. I love a nice comfortable ambiance.

Hell, I have a 6 bulb, VHO (very high output) horticulture fixture in my room(it's for my fish tank, I swear) and it turns on with a switch smaller than a light switch. I have it on a timer, so I never have to turn it on anyway.

Yellow or white, the room lit looks pretty much the same to me. Unless the bulb is supposed to be yellow, then everything just looks like it's been pissed on.
White is the best colour. It contains ALL OTHER COLOURS.
