Universalpsykopath tugs our coat and says: Tell us about your feats of deduction and the little mysteries you've solved. Alternatively, tell us about the simple, everyday things that mystified you for far too long.

I once worked for a company
that published the Yellow pages (or the Hull version anyway, which was actually in colour). I once asked how they got the colours so vibrant given the background, to which I was told that the paper isn't yellow to start with, it's actually white paper and is printed yellow, leaving spaces for the coloured adverts, (known in the industry as red/blue/white knockout. Which is why the white especially, was so white and not some off-white slightly ivory colour.
However, the black text is printed straight on to the yellow background.

Was this meant to be a reply to the post below, by any chance?
I'm only asking, before I compliment the cool story, bro.
