Why Does Iridescence Not Exist?

It's a question that has puzzled the greatest minds of our time. Iridescence, that mesmerizing sheen that makes a thing seem to shift and shine in the light. It's like the surface of a soap bubble, or the glint in a diamond's eye. But why does it never really work?

Because, Let's Be Real, Iridescence is Just a Myth

Think about it, folks. Have you ever seen a real, honest-to-goodness iridescent surface in your life? No, you haven't. That's because iridescence is just a fancy word for "stuff that looks pretty but doesn't actually do anything interesting."

But What About All Those Fancy Iridescent Paints?

Don't get me started on those. Those are just paint companies' attempts to sell you something that will make you feel like a fancy person, but won't actually do anything. It's like the difference between a 'Designer' label and actual design.

So Why Bother?

We should all just give up on iridescence now and move on to more interesting things... like watching paint dry. Or reading the fine print on your credit card bill.
