You have to do it without looking tho. That said, I actually found them easier than hdmi. With hdmi, even if I have it the right way I sometimes think it's the wrong way because it isn't aligned properly.

wasnt about getting the colors right (which was a challenged trying to get cables connected in tight confines..) it was about how fucking tight those sockets were, and the closer the plugs were, the tighter they were by some bizarre happenstance, so ones super tight up against eachother like that would be near impossible to shove in, especially in cramped confines that you typically had to work in.

I had two pieces of equipment to connect and when I matched the colors it wouldn't work. I had to swap two of the colors. I think they misprinted the colors on the unit.

The real struggle (for me) was mixing up VGA and Serial

I'm sure the struggle the meme referred to was the inferior quality of composite video.
