UF and FSU Change Colors and it's Traumatizing

Well, almost.

Imgur user eharvey328 has taken college football rivalries to another level, using some creative editing skills to horrify college football fans everywhere by placing teams in their rival’s colors. There are some pretty dark corners of the Internet, but this is about as demented as it gets.

Team colors are one of the most important part’s of a school’s identity. They have their own histories, their own names, even their own mythology.

Red isn’t just red: its crimson, scarlet and cardinal. Blue is Carolina Blue, purple is Royal Purple, and orange is Burnt Orange.

Colors having special names is not a new concept. Go shopping for paint and you’ll find thousands of different names from captivating teal to autumn cover. Sometimes it’s for the sake of art, other times just for a more accurate description. But in all honesty no one really cares.

When it comes to team colors though, everyone cares. Fans bleed their colors for a reason. Many Gator fans refuse to buy a red car, or wear maroon (excuse me, garnet) colored clothing. No true Ohio State fan can stand to be in a room with any combination of deep blue and bright yellow.

So seeing your most hated rival in your team’s colors is fairly traumatizing.

Florida and Florida State were not the only victims, with teams from the Big 12, Big 10, ACC and SEC also getting the treatment.

Auburn - Alabama

Trees were poisoned over things like this:

Ohio State – Michigan

Texas - Oklahoma

The Red River Rivalry as it never should be seen:

And I never thought I would say these words, but…

Orange and Blue have never looked more hideous.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
