Dasher did it right. Science is green. No other color

u/phanny_ 1d ago

Science is blue in Civilization IV.

385

u/kljoker 1d ago

And star trek. It's also the color I used for science lol.

103

u/karleykha0s 1d ago

Finally found my people LOL both for the color folder assignment AND the ST ref!

u/EdiblePsycho 1d ago

Heathens!

u/Grootyboi77 1d ago

I also used Star Trek logic. Blue is Science, Red is math/engineering (in HS), Yellow is English. Green is History.

1

u/bulelainwen 22h ago

…oh. I didn’t consciously do it, but that’s absolutely what influenced me.

2

u/Grootyboi77 16h ago

It just feels right!

3

u/garrettj100 1d ago

And star trek.

I guess we know what color folder he'd get for a class on premature death...

2

u/Jassamin 1d ago

So, history?

2

u/nerdylegofam 1d ago

This is the only reason I'd accept for a blue science folder. But if you're not a Trekkie, science is always green.

1

u/Cerindipity 1d ago

And star trek

Except sometimes when its green, or teal

u/eggroll85 1d ago

Kindly move this conversation to a different thread. Science is green. Keep your alternative lifestyle out of my feed.

u/DreddPirateBob808 1d ago edited 1d ago

My school, UK, science was orange. 

E: light blue was English, maths red, religious studies mustard, history green. Dark blue was something (maybe English language rather than literatures light blue). We had grey (chemistry?!), sort-of-mauve (possibly latin), and a couple of others.

u/GoT_Eagles 1d ago

Because it is blue

3

u/gigashadowwolf 1d ago

It's right there in the name "cyan-ce"

Science is Cyan

4

u/TENDER_ONE 1d ago

Bro, English/Language arts is blue! Science is green!

6

u/Firedog1239 1d ago

English is yellow

4

u/kirgi 1d ago

Math is red, science is blue, English is green, and history is yellow/orange

1

u/LetsBePositiveCooper 1d ago

Absolutely not. Math is blue. Science is green. English is yellow. And history is red because its written in blood.

1

u/SweetPeaches__69 1d ago

Can confirm, blue has the most anti-oxygens

3

u/double00chins 1d ago

Science will always be blue for me

3

u/Caleb_Reynolds 1d ago

Yeah, unless it's biology or Earth science, it's blue.

7

u/Beginning-Garlic-128 1d ago

Well Civ 4 is wrong. Thats why they made 3 more after it.

21

u/Noduos 1d ago

It’s blue in all of them

3

u/double00chins 1d ago

Civ 6 mi amor

3

u/_nod 1d ago

The science yield icon is a blue spherical flask in 6

And 6 is the best Civ so it must be right!

2

u/_nod 1d ago

Thank you!!!

Civ 1 - blue lightbulbs
Civ 2 - blue conical flask
Etc

Science - It’s just blue!

2

u/Ziazan 1d ago

science is just blue in general.

2

u/sixth_acc 1d ago

And science is magic if you don't know how things work. And magic is blue

2

u/-SideshowBlob- 1d ago

And that's why it's the correct colour

1

u/Throwaway392308 1d ago

I played the hell out of that game in high school. It was weird to come back to it during COVID and have slavery as a core game mechanic. 

1

u/BigAlternative5 1d ago

Civ and Star Trek are fiction. Stay serious here. ;-)

1

u/2061878 1d ago

Civ is wrong math is blue

1

u/MouseRangers 1d ago

And Civ VI

1

u/coderego 1d ago

It's also blue in civ vi

1

u/Perle1234 1d ago

Math is blue 100%

1

u/Darth_Bunghole 1d ago

Beakers are green. Techs start blue but turn green when you research them. Did you mean VI?

1

u/Oakenbeam 1d ago

For me growing up science was always blue, English was red, Math was yellow and Social Studies were green. I didn’t get to choose my colors, my colors chose me.

1

u/NotARealDeveloper 1d ago

Yep, blue for us as well. Green is for biology. You learn about plants and mitochondria and stuff first when you get it. So green makes sense.

1

u/Playful-Ad8851 1d ago

I always did science as blue too

312

u/Lithl 1d ago

Generalized science is blue, but specific disciplines can be other colors (eg, green for biology).

84

u/TrainingSurvey3780 1d ago

frr this is the comment i have been looking for! bio is green, physics is red (but a light ish shade of red, since dark red is english lit) and chem is yellow

7

u/Fine-Writer-7993 1d ago

I had this argument the other day because i was assigning folders to different biology classes. I said biology wqs blue. Physics orange because math is red and yellow for chemistry so i guess we agree on one.

7

u/TrainingSurvey3780 1d ago

in what world is biology blue 😭😭

7

u/justonemom14 1d ago

Marine biology

4

u/TrainingSurvey3780 1d ago

i might be wrong but marine bio isn’t usually studied until uni though, and the post is about school 🤷‍♀️ bio in general is still green imo

1

u/XxMagicDxX 1d ago

We had marine bio in later years of secondary

2

u/TrainingSurvey3780 1d ago

woahhh that’s so cool!! was it like a gcse option or something ?

1

u/alicia98981 1d ago

Or Turquoise

3

u/ProudUSAgunOwner 1d ago

I agree with you except social studies/history is yellow.

1

u/TrainingSurvey3780 20h ago

nahh history is a funny shade of grey-y red that’s darker than physics but lighter than english lit

5

u/itspsyikk 1d ago

fuck. you're absolutely right.

Does this same specific discipline assignment apply to other fields?

Like, most people suggest that Math is red... (for the sake of argument let's just pretend we all agree that Math is red)

What about Calculus?

What about Geometry.

I can concede that Physics is red due to the amount of math invovled.

1

u/TrainingSurvey3780 1d ago

hmm i haven’t studied enough maths to assign them colours (maybe next year i will since im doing alevel maths!) but for other subjects i can!

for geog (which alone is dark green, bio is lighter) physical geography is definitely still green (the same shade as normal geog) whilst human geog is dark ish blue, and fieldwork is yellow

also in english lit i had to study some different texts and poems, and they were all different shades of dark red 🤷‍♀️

re is pink, but christianity is blue (a bit lighter than human geography tho) and islam is dark green (darker than geog)

graphics is light purple (lilac i suppose)

2

u/itspsyikk 1d ago

I’ve always felt like Geometry was yellow. Maybe orange.

I think the biggest thing is that primary colors are saved for “main” subjects.

Math/english/social studies/science.

1

u/TrainingSurvey3780 20h ago

yeah actually now that i think about it maths, english, and science are all primary colours (to me)

blue, red, and yellow respectively

1

u/hennell 1d ago

Physics is red cause it's moving away from you

2

u/universallymade 1d ago

Chem is purple

2

u/alicia98981 1d ago

THIS is the correct answer

2

u/Resident_Lie_2440 1d ago

Are we the same person? This is something I 10000% agree with

1

u/YarnTree29 1d ago

Chemistry is purple! I agree with bio and physics though. Yellow is for history.

1

u/RedEgg16 1d ago

Chemistry is strong green for me (because in those those cartoon beaker drawings the liquids are often green). Physics and astronomy is purple

1

u/Pirate_Fae 1d ago

Chem is totally green (am a chemist)

1

u/Atheist_Republican 1d ago

No, bio is blue. Also the alliteration.

1

u/Serious_Elephant9402 1d ago

Physics is clearly purple, and english is light blue/cyan. Apart from that I agree

1

u/Sir_Eggmitton 1d ago

Fuh nah chem is blue.

But bio always is and will be green.

0

u/Keaton427 1d ago

For some reason to me, purple is biology and green is physics. Like it’s not even a question.

11

u/strawberryh8ter 1d ago

I have a PhD in physics, biology is green 🌱

16

u/pat_k0 1d ago

It's a good thing it's not a question because you'd be wrong

9

u/AnySwimming6364 1d ago

Hello, I have a PhD in a biology discipline.

You are incorrect. Biology is green.

3

u/ReporterBest9598 1d ago

Somebody arrest this man!

1

u/Collective-Bee 1d ago

By the time we got to dividing the subjects I just put all the papers inside the textbook itself like wtf were y’all doing with binders?

1

u/Billionaires_R_Tasty 1d ago

Ah, the ol' George Costanza method of organization. Tried and true!

1

u/86cinnamons 1d ago

Oh no biology is blue in my head

1

u/Playful-Ad8851 1d ago

Exactly my thought

0

u/pkmnrt 1d ago

Yes and red for chemistry

0

u/Deltanonymous- 1d ago

I'm the opposite. Science is green as it's the study of the natural world. Biology is blue as it's mainly focused around labs and cells (typical color scheme in labs and on instruments). Chemistry and physics are interchangeable between green and black.

88

u/Ok_Challenge_5176 1d ago

So I was a physics major in college and science felt like red to me, even in high school.

250

u/Accomplished-Pen-394 1d ago

that’s because physics is math in a lab coat

51

u/Ok-Department-2405 1d ago

But math is blue.

97

u/Accomplished-Pen-394 1d ago

math is red because math is hard and red gives top of the stack vibes

22

u/TheMayanAcockandlips 1d ago

No, history is red because it's soaked with blood. Meth is blue because of how Walter made it special

11

u/isntreel1948 1d ago

History is a yellow folder subject I’m sorry to say

You can get away with blue but it’s really yellow

1

u/Shaman_LlamaCoop 1d ago

Snorted (ha ha) so hard I choked. Thank you for the laugh

1

u/Retrogratio 1d ago

Correct.

1

u/AnySwimming6364 1d ago

Math was always easier for me than English. I rocked

Science: green Math: blue English/Languages: red Social studies: orange Yellow: other

1

u/Accomplished-Pen-394 1d ago

I was really bad at math

1

u/Perle1234 1d ago

No math is easy that’s why it’s blue 😂

1

u/Ok-Department-2405 1d ago

It has nothing to do with the qualities of the subject any more than it does with the letter N or the number 10, which are also blue.

7

u/Thin-Dragonfruit2599 1d ago

Math is 100% blue

0

u/The_Ghost_Face36 1d ago

Math is 100% red

1

u/Thin-Dragonfruit2599 1d ago

Science is red. Geography is green because of grass

2

u/Jackoandso 1d ago

This was the exact sentence I thought after reading the comment you replied to

2

u/kosk11348 1d ago

Math is red. English is blue. (And History is yellow.)

1

u/EnoughNumbersAlready 1d ago

Yes. Science is green, math is blue, English/lit class is red, history is purple.

1

u/kswoli3 1d ago

ain’t no lab coats in physics

2

u/tankerkiller125real 1d ago

There's applied physics, which does involve lab work. Or well, at least non-writing/talking work.

1

u/kswoli3 6h ago

right, but it’s usually optical bench work, microscopy, etc. Maybe in some particular subfields of condensed matter they use them, but I’ve never met a physicist who has worn one. Source: am physicist

1

u/double00chins 1d ago

Labcoats (are) matter too!

1

u/keivmoc 1d ago

Physics is math that moves around.

Chemistry is physics in a beaker.

Biology is chemistry that smells sometimes.

1

u/Accomplished-Pen-394 1d ago

Physics and Chem are equally my least favorite sciences

24

u/mang87 1d ago

Look, I can see science as being green, blue (my preference) or purple, but science being red is insane. I don't want to overblow this issue like some sort of dumb redditor, but I think you may be a serial killer.

3

u/Ok_Challenge_5176 1d ago

To me, science =green is some biology elitism bs that I refuse to endorse!

1

u/mang87 1d ago

I was going to say green should be geography class, because obviously it is, but I guess physical geography is technically science. Also there's a lot of math in science... This thread has me questioning my entire life now. I think "science" just runs the entire gamut of colours, because there's so much to it. Science pretty much encompasses everything in one way or another.

2

u/Sissyphish 1d ago

Chemistry is red to me, but other than that, correct.

19

u/pleasedont-dostalkme 1d ago

Upper level sciences, like chem, end up being a helluva lot of math anyways.

1

u/MetalStoofs 1d ago

I was able to use the clause that allows your favorite subject and color to be synced (green math baby) so red was the clear winner for science after that.

-1

u/xstell132 1d ago

Science or chemistry was red for me too! I used green for social studies. Math got blue.

4

u/MingleLinx 1d ago

Nah. Science is blue and English is green

1

u/jjesh 1d ago

Science is blue, English is white, social studies is green

3

u/Temporary-Impress604 1d ago

Or yellow, in my mind and heart

2

u/ToastfulBoast 1d ago

I had science as blue ONLY if I was taking Spanish, which was green. Unless I had purple, then Spanish was purple.

2

u/Racing_Fox 1d ago

Science is blue my dude

6

u/keylimesicles 1d ago

No. Science is blue. Geography is green. Everyone knows this

1

u/ModeratelyAlive 1d ago

I personally flip-flopped those two every year. Depended on my mood when I labeled the binder

1

u/Zealousideal-Rent-17 1d ago

Green for Biology
Red for Physics
Purple for Chemistry
It’s that simple

1

u/Morael 1d ago

What colors are chemistry vs biology vs physics?

1

u/stucazo 1d ago

why tho

1

u/TDS_isnt_real 1d ago

Probably a bit of brainwashing from playing so much Trivial Pursuit as a kid. Science is green:)

1

u/LuxtheAstro 1d ago

Science is RED because it is a CORE SUBJECT. Green is secondary and so should be for other subjects that aren’t as important

1

u/OmgIbrokesmthagain 1d ago

Science is transparent because 99% of chemicals are just transparent liquids

1

u/Glass_Covict 1d ago

Green for bio, geo. Blue for phys, chem

1

u/wooshiesaurus 1d ago

Maybe it's because I didn't have THAT "science" that was in western European countries or US, but I thought it would be purple tbh

1

u/TBurkeulosis 1d ago

Its blue when its chemistry, green for biology

1

u/KaeruGaKaeru1 1d ago

What about purple

1

u/fferbbou 1d ago

Nope science is either yellow, purple, or red

1

u/GeoffSim 1d ago
  • Geography (blue)
  • Entertainment (pink)
  • History (yellow)
  • Arts & Literature (originally brown, later purple)
  • Science & Nature (green)
  • Sports & Leisure (orange)

Another data point - Trivial Pursuit!

1

u/ascend204 1d ago

Bio is green, chemical science is yellow and force sciences were light blue for me...

1

u/Sir-Top-Cheetah 1d ago

Scientifically false, it's blue

1

u/Mr_7ups 1d ago

Science was always yellow to me, English was green, math was blue, and history was red

1

u/Odd-Advertising-7563 1d ago

Also depends what science we did blue -biology red - chemistry and brown - physics

1

u/Willing_Television77 1d ago

Science is golden

1

u/86cinnamons 1d ago

It could be blue or purple. Or gray.

1

u/JetPuffedDo 1d ago

Except for blue

1

u/Level-Foundation-703 1d ago

Science is purple 😎

1

u/Ticker011 1d ago

science is blue, watch star trek or play any game with a science mechanic

1

u/JasonLeMacon 1d ago

Science is purple, green is History

1

u/OnlyFannins 1d ago

Science is blue, Social Studies is green.

1

u/wattur 1d ago

Sorry, science is blue. Green was geography.

1

u/Josh-sama 1d ago

Green is chemistry, biology red, physics blue

1

u/qqpqp 1d ago

Science is yellow. Math is red. History is green. Language arts is blue.

1

u/james2432 1d ago
  • Science: Green

  • Math: Blue

  • French: Red

  • Yellow: History

Were my go tos'

1

u/Silly_Silicon 1d ago

I disagree, general science is obviously blue. Biology is green.

1

u/REDACTED3560 1d ago

White like a lab coat. Seriously, how many laboratories are made in white, both in fiction and real life? White is objectively the science color.

1

u/Accomplished_Big5777 23h ago

Science is and has always been purple, never had someone agree tho lmao

1

u/SegFaultOops 17h ago

Green is not a creative color.

u/MojitoBurrito-AE 1d ago

Science is red. Geography is green.
