I only use green to underline ironic statements which I'm pretty sure other people would make seriously. If it's totally over the top, you shouldn't need to point out that it's ironic, true, but the difference between subtle irony and looking like an idiot is too hard for most people to discern via text, especially if they don't know you particularly well.
What's funny is when you THINK someone is being ironic, and they are serious.
