Vista is the most obvious example. Every fucking button or bar has a crap two-tone appearance, the top part being a lighter shade than the bottom, as if the stuff was being shone upon by the sun or some shit. Even the 4chan logo has this retarded shiny effect. It's crap.

the point is that shiny things sell well to the masses. buttons use the shiny gradients because it is perceived that it is more visually appealing than buttons that are ``flat''

No, I perceive them less visually appealing. They look fake for one thing, and shitty. And lots of things that aren't shiny sell great. Big Macs sell great, for example.

They appear shiny because they are glazed over with grease.

Sorry, i'm creeped out :(
A few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this letter on to 10 videos tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand
