Duct Tape: Like The Force, duct tape has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.
Everyone loves duct tape, right? You know you've used it to tape something up, tape something down, fix a nasty leak, remove a wart, or even to wax your mustache. It has many uses including building things, beautification, and handy work. I sometimes am even caught using the phrase, "If it can't be fixed with duct tape, then it isn't broken."
The only thing that could possibly make this perfect creation better would be if it came in interchangeable colors to suit my decorating and building needs. Oh wait. It does! It comes in a variety of colors, and if you step into my dorm room, you'll immediately notice pink, green, and orange duct tape splayed in several different locations suiting several different purposes.
However, I've found something wrong with this miracle that is colored duct tape.
It isn't sticky.
Don't get me wrong; it's tape. It has a sticky side and a not sticky side, but it's just not the same as the good old silver duct tape. I taped up some Christmas lights under my lofted bed, and they keep falling down no matter how many times I tape them up. You can tell by touching it that it doesn't have that same, 'Oh my goodness, I'm never going to get this sticky off of my skin' feeling that regular duct tape has.
In conclusion, I am now forced to decide what matters most to me; my colors, or my duct-tapey satisfaction.
