DH has painted one wall of our bedroom bright fucking yellow. This is grounds for divorce right?

[Wonc]

I hate feature walls.
It hurts my eyes.
I like white.
And grey. Grey is nice.

AIBU?

[DuchessFanny]

I too love yellow, but that is awful !
My DH would probably use the same logic though .. 'But your kindle is yellow' uhuh, doesn't mean I want it on the walls !

[enormouse]

Argh. It's not even a tasteful yellow like better's description. I was prepared to say give him a reprieve.

LTB. Nothing else for it.

[Bettercallsaul1]

No, that has to go, OP. Immediately.

[Bettercallsaul1]

It would not have helped to paint any shade of yellow directly over grey....

[wellnowthenmardybum]

I feel your pain op. Dp's brother is a painter and decorator, and we arranged for him to wallpaper one wall while we went to spain. Came back and he had put a hideous orangey wallpaper on. He had missplaced the lovely white wallpaper we had bought and chosen so just went and bought us another roll and put that on! The wallpapers weren't even similar.

Holy Christ.That shitty yellow makes my former gloss yellow kitchen look lovely.Looks like a cell used for sensory deprivation torture at Guantanamo.

[iggymama]

Reminds me of the kitchen in the Chinese takeaway that Del Boy painted with railway paint

[Bettercallsaul1]

Yes, I agree that that yellow is a form of torture. You could divorce him on the grounds of cruel and unusual punishment.

[Wonc]

I think I might actually hate him.

My lovely white bedspread is missing. He got hideous yellow paint on it. But it's alright apparently because he "sprayed stain remover on it and put it in the washing machine straight away."

I don't know what has got into him. We have been together almost two decades and he has never done anything like this. Could it be a midlife crisis??

I came home one day and my DH had painted all 4 rooms in our 2nd living room bright pink!!!

It was horrendous!!!

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

I was considering a pale, pale primrose yellow for my family / sitting room (aka where we all lard about) but it would need to extend into the kitchen/dining room.
And I'm not ready for that much yellow.

Our bedroom is grey with charcoal grey bedding (but I'm too knackered to care that I'm living in a cave )

[iK8]

If be doesn't actually make a start putting it right I'd get the white paint and a brush and paint: this wall is an abomination and offence to humanity all over the gastly wall.

[Vitalstatistix]

Oh god.
is that paint or the worst case of explosive diahorroea ever?
yellow is lovely. I was thinking you were most unreasonable to hate yellow, but THAT? That is not yellow.
nothing that colour has any business being on a wall.

[Bettercallsaul1]

Oh dear, this is getting worse and worse, OP. Maybe mid-life counselling is in order?

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

Do you ever watch Eastenders and look at Max Brannings kitchen?
The tiles are dark red, dark green and I think burnt umber.
The walls are painted dark red.
I think WHY WHY WHY .

But it was Johnny Allen wot done this.

But Max, why live with Johnny Allens rubbishy decor ideas?
Paint the bloody walls dark green Max.


See, Wonc your yellow wall isn't that bad (at least it's in the bedroom)

Writer I have no words . Were they Barbie pink? Barbara Cartland Pink ?

[SantanaLopez]

You poor, poor thing

Has he got a fever? Ebola?

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

Wonc I've just seen the colour swatch.
It is bad.
(I thought by bright yellow you meant daffodil)

[ZacharyQuack]

Tell him that the yellow is reflecting off his skin and making him look like Homer Simpson. And there's no way you'll ever have sex with Homer.

[Bettercallsaul1]

Jaundice? Yellow fever? Has been to any foreign parts recently?

[Bettercallsaul1]

*Has he been.

[enormouse]

Buy him one of these.

Make him wear it in public till he realises the error of his ways and repaints that monstrosity.

[thebestnameshavegone]

I once painted a bedroom in our house what looked like a lovely shade of yellow in the tin. It turned out very similar to the op's colour. It was fucking hideous.
The housemate who's room it was, was a very chilled Australian who still lived like a student and was happy to sleep in the garden or a bus stop when drunk. Even he was horrified at having to sleep in the custard room, as it came to be know.
Not my finest hour.

[Wonc]

Enormouse I think I love you. Really I do. That made me laugh hysterically and then I cried a bit.

I know it's just a room but the fucker LIKES IT.
I think I'm most upset at the realisation that I have procreated with a man who has made our bedroom look like a giant egg/ custard room/ student digs.

[LuckySaint]

It's vile. You poor thing.
Is it dry yet? Hopefully you could get it repainted today.

I would have to kill him.

I like white, my our bedroom has
white walls, ceiling, floor and bed. It's lovely.

[iK8]

So what's are you going to do about it? IMHO it's just begging for a giant hairy cock and balls to be painted on it. In white
