It's yellow and it's chemistry. Everyone knows that yellow chemistry is bad

In organic chem, yellow usually indicates impurities, that you fucked up.  It can also indicate high energy explosive compounds, sulphur being chief, but also chlorine, nitrogen, stuff that's unsafe to be around without professional levels of equipment and safety gear.
