Why is my ice cream green?

A common euphemism used when a situation, product, or life event is fundamentally broken, glitched, or "not what you ordered." Used to express a mix of absurdity and frustration when reality fails to meet basic logic.
You meet a first world problem like a drink in a bottle that is not the right shape for you so you could simply say "Why is my ice cream green? " as things are not exactly as you wanted. Basically it replaces "This is not what I asked for".

My shot is Green

This phrase is used in the series of NBA 2k video games, mostly when playing online when a player perfectly times a jumpshot, which prompts a "green" animation.
"I just broke this dudes ankles, and my shot is green."
