Thursday Greens
Retired [L] Orc

A team who play in the FUMBBL Premiership purely based on the colour green. The player names are taken from Wikipedia's list of Shades of Green. Here are some interesting green facts:

- Envy is called the green-eyed monster (after a phrase in Shakespeare's Othello).
- An inexperienced person is sometimes known as green, probably by analogy to unripe (i.e. unready, immature) fruit. The word greenhorn also refers to an inexperienced person.
- Soylent Green is a 1973 science fiction film, named for the green-colored food that is its central plot element. It also stars Charlton Heston, the main thematic element in my OCCS Human team 'Heston's Big Parts'.
- Fire escape exit signs are green in Puerto Rico, but red in Mexico. In America, they can be either green or red.
- Green is thought to be an unlucky color in British and British-derived cultures, where green cars, wedding dresses, and theatre costumes are all the objects of superstition.
- A Green Party (or Faction) existed in the Byzantine Empire for a while, but of course it had nothing to do with modern Greens. Rather, it developed out of a kind of chariot racing fan club whose drivers used the color green to distinguish themselves from the opposing Blue Party. The Green Party represented the "liberals" (artisans, workmen, and small shopkeepers), whereas the Blue Party represented the "conservatives" (the military, the wealthy merchants, and the Imperial bureaucracy).
- Bein' Green — a popular song by Kermit the Frog.
- Muhammad is reliably quoted in a hadith as saying that "water, greenery, and a beautiful face" were three universally good things.
- British racing green is a popular color for cars. It was made famous by the likes of Bentley in the early 20th century.
- In Japan, green indicates safety and luxury. As an example of safety, signs for emergency exits are green and white. For luxury, the Japan Railways system has green cars on trains; these have wider, reserved seats as well as other amenities, and carry a premium price. (This is all true, sadly I could not afford to go on the Green Cars when in Tokyo...)
