Do multiple

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

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
