Blue usually is problematic because they use pure blue color from blue led lights, and it's so overkill, it feels wrong to the eyes and just too bright.
As someone with an astigmatism the blue LED Christmas lights are the hardest to look at, though the LED lights are hard to look at normally but the blue ones are the worst.
I had a moment of culture shock my first Christmas in the Philippines when I found out for them, christmas colors = any bright colors. They make star shaped frames out of bamboo, put a light inside, and stretch colorful plastic over it, and I had to admit it looked really pretty even with the purples and yellows and blues.
I think pippa is missing that these are not just "blue (incandescent) lights", they are harsh "electric-blue LED lights" which are piercing to look at and create a stiff, frigid look compared to their softer incandescent counterparts
Pippa was writing off the color filtered pictures because the peoples skin was also shifted to weird colors. But if blue is the predominate light in the area, that is what it will do to people's skin color in real life.
I hope people were recommending Technology Connections' yearly quest of finding warmly colored christmas LEDs. It's pretty great. (His main complaint is that colored LEDs are monochrmoatic, compared to the broad band of white ones or the incandecent bulbs of olde.)
I am a gardener. I am constantly bombarded by blue-red LED light. Feels very cyberpunk. These people just haven't learned to photosynthesize the right light wavelengths yet. I, for one, welcome our new blue light overlords. Really gets my chlorophyll pumping.
Blue Christmas lights are nice, they're chill. I think the problem is when they're all blue. You can have a blue corner, or a majority blue, but the centrepiece needs to be bright.
Pipkin Pippa (male) talks about the Christmas, blue rabbit hole. Non pork eaters upset by it, more at 5pm. Breaking news! The blue rabbit hole has been declared by popular belive to be... A bussy. More at 6pm.
The only type of Christmas lights that can get away with being singular color are those yellowish-white ones. It’s bright, but not harsh on the eyes like most colored LED lights.
Another one of the classic and already numerous Pippa L takes. I have to agree that blue lights, especially blue lights alone without other colors together, look cold, depressing, distant. Yellow and orange colors look pleasant, warm on a cold night, especially if it snows, the combination of several colors looks happy, joyful, skillful use of multiple colors can look very beautiful or maybe use the stereotypical corporate red-white-green, but blue lights by themselves look so sterile.
"I'll have a blue Christmas without you I'll be so blue just thinking about you Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me And when those blue snowflakes start falling That's when those blue memories start calling You'll be doing all right With your Christmas of white But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas You'll be doing alright With your Christmas of white But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas You'll be doing all right With your Christmas of white But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas"
"Blue Light in the Bathroom"? I'll be impressed when they switch to UV, so I can witness the true horrors of the "Shoddily Cleaned Public Planatarium of Bodily Fluids". That being said I only use Infrared bulbs for my Christmas decorations. One needs proper NODS to witness the glory of my install.
The Hanukkah people are probably referring to the general statements the writer said about what blue represents and is associated with (and thus why it's not suited for Christmas), which logically would apply to other traditions. It's like if you were wearing a red t-shirt and I said I don't because red is associated with c*mmunism, I'm indirectly implicating you too.
Classic Pippa L. I want warm and cozy lights for Christmas, those are litterly the best part about winter. The dark blue lights look cold and depressing...
Warm yellow and green red lights spring happiness. Compliments the green and browns of the trees. The rose to Santa's cheeks and the rich browns of hot cocoa
Blinking lights remind me of carnivals, which are symbolic of a community coming together in celebration. Monotone blue lights remind me of a crime scene.
Ah yes... Nothing says Hanukkah like a blue 15ft tall Hanukkah bush with bright blue lights spelling "Merry Christmas" next to a Jewish blue snowman.
Blue incandescent bulbs are fine, but blue LEDs are awful, way too harsh.
It's a big blue blob. Any other colors are fine blue sucks.
Any LEDs suck if they are not filtered. Those on cars and streetlamps are great examples

okay redditor, thanks for the input? I guess???
@dmign I'm glad my comment had such a profound impact on you that you clearly took time out of your very busy day to respond to it.
Identifying Jews with the color blue...
Not even 4chan this time.
Really oy's my vey's.
Thanks Pippa. I’ve always wanted someone to talk about the obscure rabbit hole of blue xmas lights specifically
Pippa going insane is such a great genre of content

Pippa and the blue light rabbi hole
Sees comment on the article. Nevermind, fuck it, I agree now
Blue LEDs suck. They hurt my eyes.

Actual Grinch behavior.
Man about to change his color to blue.
finally, SOMEBODY talks about the blue glowies. ive been screaming about it for years

Didn't he find a really expensive startup business that actually made them this year,and it immediately sold out of their entire stock?
She was waking up, but decided to stay asleep
WAKE UP PIPPA

Sometimes the red pill wears off over the time, so you have to take another one.

You can have blue lights, but not JUST blue lights. You need a mix of reds and greens and whites with a little blue mixed in.
Blue Christmas lights are nice, they're chill. I think the problem is when they're all blue. You can have a blue corner, or a majority blue, but the centrepiece needs to be bright.
It just weird that hannukah, a celebration of a military victory, has slowly absorbed all of the substance of christmas. Why do they exchange gifts?
Especially since Jews hate Jesus... odd!
Don't ask what they did in Middle Ages Germany on Christmas Eve
This is Twitter in a nutshell
"I like pancakes"
"SO yOu HaTe WAfflES!?"
"No b!tch, that's a whole different sentence."

What's more disturbing than Blue Christmas Lights is the fact that Pippa's head is almost separating from her neck. 😅
No wonder I don't like blue lights, they belong to the tiny hat ppl, my gut is always right.

I like the new blue lights. They look icy, they are easy on the eyes and since they don't glow as bright, look ghostly.
Did my Mom write this article? She absolutely hates the color blue.

Just don't make the lights all blue if you hate it that much.
Imagine giving a shit about this
I never thought I would say this, but the jurno is right.
If you live in a Jewish neighborhood in the UK you'll see a big Hanukkah candle thing, not blue lights lol
Would be funny and gross with bathrooms and hotels installed black lights
"I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue memories start calling
You'll be doing all right
With your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
You'll be doing alright
With your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
You'll be doing all right
With your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas"

kek, I run blue lights on my house
do it because my favorite Christmas song in Blue Christmas by Elvis
The internet is like a box of chocolates: it'll give you cancer.
blue Christmas ok. purple Christmas right to jail.
You stumbling onto that comment section was hilarious.
I think we can all agree and say Christmas is the best time for any kind of lights. Red, Blue, Yellow, etc.
The Blue Queen's Gambit
Don't they use blue lights in parking lots to prevent crime? 🤔
I hate blue lights

Random comment but I still have no idea who the person saying to subscribe to low effort clips is and I havent seen a clip of her
At this rate South Park is going to run out of craziness to show.
No way, it'll be cancelled by crazies long before it runs out of crazies.
those comments make more sense when you realize their from 7 years ago during the peak of woke culture.
i love a rabbit hole
Hey you're not the turtle!
I like the blue lights. They look good. Blue lights make me happy.
I've come to love blue LEDs sooooo much just because I found out it pisses people off.
Blue xmas light hate is pathetic, someone elses fun affecting you is just sad
People are insane. Blue is my favorite colour Christmas light. Looks like icy snowy winter.
