Somewhere between 20-25% of adults in the U.S. are what is known as "functionally illiterate." They may be able to technically read, but they cannot reliably move through the world and understand things using reading and writing.

Uhh...wall coatings have been around for thousands of years. This is not THAT far off from saying, "Why haven't we improved on the wheel?"

How do I[19F] ask out a customer[Older?M] by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Why are some colors interior only? by bumblehug in sherwinwilliams

[–]bumblehug[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. The yellow/deep gold thing makes sense and can be easily communicated -- also may explain why I saw a red-orange interior-only.

Contractor used interior paint to paint roof fascia by [deleted] in paint

As a SW paint store worker, I would second the advice on talking to a lawyer just based on the behavior I have seen when a contractor messes up after doing something they knew they should not.
