I get really tired from the darkness outside. Vitamin D ftw! It makes me a lot less tired than I used to be before I started taking vitamin D supplements.
I never take any supplements or medication. Of course, I am lucky that I am not suffering from anything serious... but so far so good (I am 58). People keep telling me that I don't look a day over 45... My secret? Initial poverty! My father built his own house and bought a large piece of land, that he turned partly into a vegetable garden and partly an orchard. he raised chickens and rabbits and we (my siblings and I) ate little else... So no pesticides, no chemical crap you find in most things you buy in stores until I was almost 18.
So... do board members who use the retina-searing default white theme even realize that 
and 
aren't just regular frowny faces?

I use retina displays and I didn’t! But I changed to the blue one and now I see the questionmarks and the sigh! 
You were lucky to see it in time!
I have the impression that people nowadays only think of what is good for themselves and never stop a moment to think what consequences their actions have for others.

Actually, no. I find the other templates too dark and exhausting on the eyes so that I stick with the white one. It's interesting, though, that the additional graphic elements don't show on the white template if you highlight the smilies.So... do board members who use the retina-searing default white theme even realize that
^ I agree, I think the blue one is too intense. I’m trying out the gray one now. It feels ok to me so far.
Omg! I didn’t realize this at all! I feel so silly now.So... do board members who use the retina-searing default white theme even realize that
Instead of a time machine, I'd prefer a getting young machine... kinda like Picard et al. in Rascals... I would never have asked to reverse it!!!!
Don't let anyone make you feel worthless like I've let someone do to me.
Some people have a gift for doing that to other people... That's often the only gift they have.
That's really interesting, I'm just the opposite, and much prefer the darker shades to looking at that white all the time. It's not as bad now since I've had the eye surgery, though. When we were first testing the board in XenForo, white was the only theme we had, and my eyes were so bad it was just a big blurry, whitish mess! It was really difficult to read anything, and for a while, I thought I would have to quit the board!
Ohhh, by "blue one" you mean Big Blue? Oh, yes, "intense" is a good word for that one!
Old Gray is my theme of choice, but I have to admit, that's the first one I thought of when you mentioned the "blue one", since it's really blues and gray-blues. 
If you ever did get one, maybe we could set something up where you share it with the rest of the board too? (Hmm... would that be a time share?)
Am I tho only one tired and bored about talking about Trump? I feel everything their is to say about him has been said. Not just by me but by everyone. I want a boring as hell president again and I will even settle for a old school Republican at this point than yet more Trump drama .

no, you're not alone. His latest escapades keep heading the news here. For months now the first thing you see when you open any news-website is his face. Admittedly, his tribble-in-an-electrostatic-field hairstyle fits carnival, but at normal times of the year I'd like to be spared that view.
What's even worst is Trump jokes have also been played out. You can't even make a new Trump joke because someone has already beat you to it. Especially since many of them are just recylced, dumb president jokes that go back not to just George W Bush but Dan Qualye. I do miss the Bushism's though. It was funny seeing the President not be able to speak English and he always had something new and different to say in a dumb way. With Trump he just repeats the same stuff over and over. 'It's going to be Huge" and "Fake News" etc. Hitting those catchphrases pretty hard. Those other guys didn't use catchphrases. Qualye was famous for the Potato thing and Trump for not saying Nuclear right but they didn't work into ever speech they made.
