Comment on Blue could have been a warmest color

I always thought that Martians would have their traffic lights the other way around. Green is calm since it’s associated with plants, and Mars is obviously covered in red foliage - just look at it! Meanwhile red is a warning since it is the colour of blood and we’re programmed to pay attention when we see blood for obvious reasons. But everyone knows Martians (like most aliens) bleed green. So their traffic lights must have opposite colours from ours.

Yeah, these cultural associations can get pretty wild. So, would you wear black or white at a funeral? Depends on the cultural context.

That’s why I wore a zebra-striped shirt to the last one I went to

As a bonus, you won’t ever get invited to any boring events again. It’s a win-win for everyone!
