No but I used to work at a place that had a yellowish wallpaper scheme.
I used to call the color, Chain SmokerWhite.

Ya, and that is a crappy place indeed. Ironically they redid the inside, but it's too little too late.
Also, I am sensitive to cigarette smoke stuff, for a lot of reasons. Not the least of which is I can still smell stale smoke smell from my fathers smoking and he's been gone for over a decade.

Yeah I have asthma and allergies and omg even just the smell of smoke can jack me up.

If youve ever taken down wallpaper from a house with smokers, it literally comes out of the walls once the paper is removed. Like the smoke itself was trapped behind the wallpaper.

Are you one of my students? How odd that you would post this topic today.

There was an episode of Goof Troop where Pete convinced Goofy that his cat was allergic to his houses yellow wallpaper.

The twist came when Max told Goofy that cats were colorblind.

As a kid I always thought this was weird. Like, just because youre color blind doesnt stop colors from existing. If you were allergic to yellow then being colorblind would be a hazard, not an immunity.

Lol. Nah. My friend reminded me of it earlier and told me he hated it. I had no idea schools made their students read it. My friend ended up reading it like three times between high school and college.

Im not sure the author (or the character) really considered themselves feminists, did they? I feel like it was more about raising awareness of the harm of institutionalizing women, right?

It only really became feminist literature after the fact.
