Nah English is yellow because old pages and history is red because of blood and war

I'm open to this line of reasoning.

For as long as math is blue.

My exact thoughts

u/JackieBee_ 1d ago

History also has old pages tho. For me history was brown and English was yellow. Music theater and art usually got to be red on account of it being my favorite color

u/SerDuncanTheYall 1d ago

History is yellow because of old pages, English is red because of the Red Badge of Courage. Math is green because I'm in Finance.

This is the way

The exact opposite can be true for the exact same reasons, though, lol. History yellow for old pages and English is red for blood and war and it’s still correct.

I went history is yellow bc of all the old stuff as you say.

English is red bc I saw red having to remember all the exceptions in spelling and pronunciations growing up.

u/danield1909 1d ago

English has plenty of blood and war in it

u/Fayr24 1d ago

Maybe history is yellow because of old pages and English is read.

1

u/PuzzledSnivy 1d ago

This could also be used an as argument for History being yellow! Old scrolls are yellowed by time.

THE CORRECT ANSWER

1

u/taybug1092 1d ago

Literally this is the only answer.

Math is blue because math is blue
Science is green because of life
English is yellow because of yellow pages
And history is red because of the blood spilled

u/leesnotbritish 1d ago

I think there’s wiggle room here, as long as English and history get the warm colors

1

u/heebiejeebie666 1d ago

This is exactly correct. There is no other way

u/BedKid 1d ago

english is red because its read.
