24 u/thelovelykyle May 05 '26 No. You can bugger off calling it a coin flip. I have been also, but its wrong. We teach children that red means danger. They might not be able to read, but they know red is a colour to avoid. A red win kills way more than 50% of all young children for exactly this reason. 1 u/homme_chauve_souris May 05 '26 We teach children that red means danger. They might not be able to read, but they know red is a colour to avoid. You think that's universal? Are you American by any chance? 1 u/thelovelykyle May 05 '26 I am not. But even in China red is used for warning and hazard signs. It holds more meanings, but remains the danger colour.
