lights.

I hate fluorescent lights. I prefer lamps.
Flourescent lights expose the ugly side of people, while lamps create a soft, warm glow.
Flourescent lights hurt my eyes when I'm just waking up, while lamps help my eyes gradually adjust.
Flourescent lights make me think of working (in a stressful atmosphere), while lamps make me think of reading (in a cozy atmosphere).
"Flourescent lights" is probably not even how you SPELL it properly; "lamps" is something I learned how to spell in 1st grade.

[I definitely just broke my parallel prose.]

We have both in our bedroom... and he always turns on those fluorescent lights!!!
