| Jan 12, 2014 at 20:10 | comment | added | bobobobo | @JessicaYang It is psychobabble :). But saying someone is "green" (or "blue" in Japanese?) is saying they're new at it. The main thing I'd think of that is green when it's new is vegetation. When I talk about red, yes, I am repeating stuff I heard over years about what red means, but blood is red. | |

| Jan 12, 2014 at 16:30 | comment | added | Jessica Yang | @bobobobo This sounds a bit too much like color psychobabble. Red also means a great many other things. | |
| Jan 12, 2014 at 15:18 | comment | added | bobobobo | Because green is trees, green is nature. Green means "new" or "fresh", or something positive. Red means blood, violence, fire, and destruction. Red is power. | |
| Jan 12, 2014 at 2:39 | comment | added | 111 | Positively removing something though, it's ambiguous because the thing in question will stop existing, when you proceed (go forward) with the deletion. The red green stuff is particularly backwards in IE browser, where "close this web page" is green. Delete/Cancel above without green is the best solution | |
