A Matter of Taste
October 15, 2008 | 30 Comments
Todays Sophisticated Insult for those who attack your aesthetic sensibilities.
It bothers some people, apparently, that the inside of our home doesn’t look like a doctor’s office. We love colour.
I regret not saying this to the person who mocked the “bright” paint colours on my walls:
I like you. People say I have no taste, but I like you.

oh no – just spilled hot tea on my keyboard laughing!
Yeah, I’ve said something like this to a couple of people on occasion.
Gosh, Bee, it’s almost as if I want people to be rude to me just to insult them back with all these handy lines – keep ‘em coming!
you are very snarky. i love that. i can’t wait to meet you in person some day, so you can make me snort beverage out of my nose when we’re having lunch and you say something funny…
LOL! This might be your best one yet!
Yeah, really. Manisha says that about all my walls…
what does she say? that it looks like a doc’s office? or that they are too bright? if it’s the latter, have you seen her green walls, darling?
LOL
))
mmmm nice punch!
ha!ha!ha!
Aww, but I love the doctor’s office! Lol.
Hm. On a related note- I’ve been wanted to undo the “doctor’s office” look. Should I take up the brushes? Or hire someone?
have e-mailed you.
Hi,
The voting for “CLICK” is much easier now. Thanks for listening.
Srividya
I find it difficult to write a comment that is half as funny/intelligent as your posts, so I’m not even gonna try and will just say this: ROFLMAO!
LOL…
Super! U guys are just super!!!
LOL
I have used that in the opposite way. When people see the presents my husband bought for me and say how good they are and he has a good taste, I say “yeah he has good taste, he picked me too.”
That is an ultimate comeback..
loved it.
I am having a lot of fun:-D. Keep going. & I am learning and preparing myself.
Oh boy…tooo goood. Am almost ready to attack the world.
I liked Pooja’s comment.
My husband once said that his stars are so lucky. he has good luck in everything…casinos, parking spots…everything, just name it. And then he said my luck is never good anytime (he may have said as a joke!!)
I just replied politely..”You’re right honey…see who married whom. My luck is totally bad as you said!!
Hee..hee..he has never uttered about it again…
LOL
heeeee, too good…. i shall try this one for sure…..
Have you seen Anita’s walls? Better buy a pair of polarized sunglasses!
My greens on the other hand are all monochromatic and very soothing to the eye. No that I picked the color or the shades. But green is old news, baby! Have you seen my orange wall should be the question!
I am sorry but I am not enjoying your sophisticated insult series that much. There’s snarky, and there’s bitchy….and yours is bordering on the latter. I am not trying to offend you but since I come to your blog often to enjoy your posts I thought I’d share my opinion that not all readers like this series. Of course, that doesn’t mean you have to do anything about it. After all, this is your space.
Thank you for reading this.
not offended at all. thanks for your feedback.
That was funny!
What do I say, when random strangers ask what my daughter’s name is…and go ‘Oh, Isn’t that very ooooooooold? There are so many nice stylish names..why did you pick this one?’
It hurts when people do this, because we absolutely love her name and it means five different but beautiful meanings in five languages… but what can I say? I wish I can say something that would shut them up, but what makes people think their taste is the only thing best and everything else is dumb?
live and let live
I am a regular “lurker” and have finally made time to “de-lurk”. If you see the title of my not so up-to-date blog, you will know why I don’t de-lurk often!
I enjoy reading most of your posts and insults. I often find that you have put into words what I have kept in my mind! This is especially true about the bright colors!
You seem like the person who does not get influenced by what ppl think of you – so what do you care and why think of even a comeback?
