    ^ Yeh, I reject this as a valid snark meme that mocks something worth deriding. Texture is part of design as much as straight lines, curves, colors and spaces, and it isn't going away. There are bad ways to use faux-realistic, even anachronistic textures, and there are good. The best stick and everyone copies them, and your clients want them too, so sit, down, shut up, stop trying to be clever and show off to your friends, and start googling nice leather and fabric textures, because I just got a call from the client and they think it looks 'too cold and computery'.
