Welcome to The Shitpost Office

Shitposts processed from 9 to 5, with occasional overtime on weekends.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not SinisterTreat others like fellow employees, not enemies in the breakroom.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Respect people’s time and space. We’re here to laugh, not to loathe

Rule 2: No Prohibited PostageSome packages are simply undeliverable. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content
  • NSFW content must be properly tagged

If you see anything that violates these rules, please report it so we can return it to sender. Otherwise? Have fun, be silly, and enjoy the chaos. The office runs best when everyone’s laughing.... or retching over the stench, at least.

The factorio community is escaping containment

Green because Trivial Pursuit says so

Depends on the science? Who has only sciences and not physics (orange), biology (green) and chemistry (yellow) separated? But mine were also out of hard paper and not plastic..

[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Excuse me, but orange is history. Red is any math related subject. Blue is for lit. Green is science.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Red is Language Studies and Green is math, you heathen.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 4 points 5 days ago

Found the capitalist.

[–] anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 days ago

Agree, except physics is dark blue because math is blue.

[–] TeaWithDani@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Hard paper? So duo tangs? 17 duo tangs!!!

[–] hessenjunge@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 5 days ago

Yep, was about to ask „which science” since we’re talking about folders, not clothing.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 13 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Blue for sciences... ah yes, the Star Trek system.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 days ago

Even before I got into Trek... it just makes sense to me

Blue is math, orange is chemistry, green is biology. My physics folder was always light blue but that's not in there apparently and then red is for your mother tongue language subject.

Of course everyone is different but naturally my colors are right so everyone else must be wrong.

[–] hoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Wait omfg that's genuinely what that color was for me. That's funny.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago

Seems like some colors are truly universal for some (western) countries.
Read some threads here have some colors that are the same as it were for me.

Here were mine:
Red - German (mother tongue)
Orange (or Yellow) - English (2nd lang) Blue - Math
Green - Nature Sciences
Yellow - IT/wood-working (depending on school year)
Purple (or adjacent) - Religion or Ethics (Ethics for non-christian students)

[–] lilith267@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 4 days ago

Science: Green

Math: Red

Literature: Blue

History: Yellow

[–] Bronelius@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Red - English

Orange - Social Studies/History

Purple - Math

Science - Blue, but green fits too

[–] kivihiili@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 days ago

orange because flames and boom boom B)

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 1 points 4 days ago

Orange is clearly science

Depends on where science lands on my schedule. I'd sort the folders in rainbow order and match that to the order of my schedule.
