For sure, as a teenager - interest in music switched from interest in music to finding music videos that got girls in 'em'.

What the fuck happened to your formatting

These?. Yup, wrap text in these for code formatting -> `

You can also
Do multiple
Lines
By wrapping with three of those  consecutively

Like this -> ```

No I mean why are some of your words different colors

That's just how your client formats code blocks. I'm using Connect and inline code blocks have red text

I'm on the website.

K, so the web client. I just checked out the website and it looks like it's coloring words that tend to be common tokens in programming languages, like "if" and "with". That wasn't me applying the colors, that was your client, I just wrapped text in " ` " or " ``` “. The actual comment is just Markdown formatting
