Or perhaps you’ve been looking through online product options (where the selection is even greater). Either way, the moment you see a pink DVD player, you are probably thinking one of two things: “Who on earth would want a pink DVD player?” or “A pink DVD player? It’s just what I’ve always wanted!”
So, in homage to the existing fans of pink appliances, and by way of explanation to those who tend toward solid black, here are the top five (fun) reasons to buy a pink DVD player.
- It is pink. If you cannot get enough pink, then why not extend that to your electronics? Decorating a dorm room or child’s bedroom gets easier when your accessories match the color scheme. This fun color can lighten up any room.
- It plays DVDs. Obviously. But who doesn’t like DVDs? So if you like the color and the function, what is stopping you?
- It will make you smile. If you are particularly sensitive to feng shui, colors and tones, or general environmental design, then a pink DVD player will give you something to smile about when you walk into your room. Once you start buying pink electronics, you are creating a no-grouches-allowed environment.
- It’s ironic. Yes, ironic. A pink DVD player? This could be a great gift for a guy who has a sense of humor (and happens to need a DVD player). It stands out from a goth décor in a particularly humorous manner. And even without surroundings to throw it into contrast, even on its own, a very bright colored pink DVD player is entertaining and ironic; it doesn’t need much help.
- You are a child. Or, perhaps you are buying this for a child. Plenty of adults like pink, but it’s generally found more often in children’s appliances. This is a real reason to buy a pink portable DVD player for your daughter or niece. Or if you’re just a child a heart, then go for it. You only live once.
