Leonard: Lilac.
Carol: Lilac? Leonard, who has a lilac floor in their kitchen?
Leonard: I have.

Mas que raio de mente tonta escolhe aquela cor para as paredes de uma exposição de pintura no Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga?
Parece um enorme pullover alfazema de uma bichinha tonta armada a betinho hetero!
As pinturas ficaram todos arruinadas com aquele fundo!!
O painel do Álvaro Pires, que deve ter custado uma pipa de massa trazer de Pisa e que tão cedo não se terá dinheiro para outro empréstimo destes, nem se nota engolido no mar lilás...
e os painéis de São Vicente?! dentro do Finalmente!!

But what kind of silly mind choose that colour for the walls of a painting exhibition in our national museum?
It looks like the giant lavender sweater of a silly queen trying to look like a posh hetero!
The paintings were all ruined with that background!
The Álvaro Pires panel, that must have cost a fortune to bring from Pisa and that so soon there are no money for another loan like this, it's dwarfed by all that lilac sea...
and the Saint Vincent Panels?! looks like they are inside Finalmente!!


Sortuda a CIN, que com a desculpa de mecenato se livrou de litros e litros de tinta violeta, lilás e alfazema

Lucky CIN (the paint company), that with the excuse of the sponsorship got rid of liters and liters of lilac, violet and lavender paint.
