Thanks! __________________ "this..stuff? ....it's not turquoise, it's not lapis, it's actually cerulean.... that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and so it's sort of comical how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you're wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room.
