How does this fit in with Vista?

The color scheme fits.

Well... more than the last one.

This fits more with a mac than Vista, the simple grey colour. No blues, transparency, glossy or shadows with this theme.

Since no intelligent, rational person would own a Mac, my point stands.

Vista: blues, blacks, unnecessary spinny-rotatey.
This theme: oranges, greys, no spinny-rotatey.
...

Fine. Nothing but the title bar thingy and the fade thingy matches. I am pathetic, color blind and inadequate. Goodbye cruel world.

Color blindness is rather rare these days.

I believe colour blindness is getting more common as are other genetic vision problems such as long/short sightedness - there's very little selection pressure against them in this modern world, so people with them aren't selected out and they become more common.

Wait, there are genes for near/far-sightedness? I thought you just get it when you watch tv too much and your eyes start to strain...

I advocate a cull.

You may acquire slight short-sightedness if you spend a long time watching TV, a computer screen, a book, or anything similar from too close, and most people start to become long-sighted with age, but serious short-sightedness or early long-sightedness is wholly genetic.

I didn't really understand the original topic anyway.

Wait, sorry, ignore that. The thingy split when I was posting...I'm confused...

Blame our lovely First minister.

Will do.

(Sorry Gladstone.)

It's Gladstone, right? First Minister?

Yeah, Gladstone is the First Minister in question. The topic's in General Chat by the way.

Thanks. I was confused. :D

That's not your fault at all. Though, you kinda need to be in on the joke to realise what happened here.

Okay. So when I said I was confused before, multiply that by 100 and you can understand my feelings now. I guess I missed this whole conversation. Wow.

It's basically stuff to do with Gladstone, and his current mental state.

For me, it was a combination. Too much books and screens, plus genes. And my family found out about my near-sightedness because I went to theopera, and it was Salome, which is incredibly boring, and to make things worse, I couldn't read the subtitles, and so my parents discovered I needed glasses. Now I have contact lenses, which I much prefer over normal glasses as the inconvenience of spending a few minutes to put them on and take them off each day is not that much of a hindrance compared with the added bonus of having a complete view without frames in the way.
