    I sing a little ditty in my head:

    Orange-stripe, orange, green-strip, blue,

    Blue stripe, green, brown-stripe, brown.

    If it’s the “other” scheme? Fuck me, to the diagrams I go.

    EDIT: Realized you’re talking about jacks. Aren’t they all clearly labelled these days, with both schemes?

      Yeah, the good ones are labeled, but I have a bag of unknown origin that don’t have it on the side. I should probably just get a new bag.

        Was going to say, despite my loathing of waste, I’d probably chunk of bag of unlabelled jacks. Hell, you’ll waste a few fucking up anyway.

          I’m usually the type to just deal with the annoyance and use them up to prevent tossing them. Probably a minor enough annoyance.
