@cicerone imposter,
I know, that was the point I was making, they're still called red robins even though they're clearly orange.

@tsarstepan,
Please leave the English out of this. They have enough going paying for TV and arguing about Brexit.

At least our kids are safe from the NRA and 250 carcinogenic food additives.

@maxdancona,
We also have seedless oranges.

Once upon a time a farmer noticed an orange that had no seeds. Intrigued, he cloned it. The tree that he grew produced seedless oranges. Today, all seedless oranges are clones of that one fruit.

I saw a video on YouTube where they said that oranges are actually flat. I'm inclined to agree with them because the video was well edited

In the beginning....well, three clomporidiuls into it, God (or whatever name they were using then), found that summertime was quite hot and that great thirst would arise. Pineapples mangos, apples, bananas and the rest did not sufficiently quench the thirst. Therefore Abba created an orange. Knowing there would be future need, seeds were put in as well. Knowing some would not like seeds, a seedless version was created.

Soon the world was happy and Anita Bryant and Bingsy Crosby made money off of it the juices advertising dollars power millennia later.

In the beginning a norange was the word and the word was an orange.

The orange crush of nuclear fusion illuminated the early universe's space/lime continuum resulting in the familiar orange glow we know and grow by.

And lo, orange became the new black.

Orangomorphic beliefs squeezed early cosmological thinking into the juicy distillate that is as fresh today as it is ripely plucked.

@farmerman,
I am first and foremost and always been a founding member of the AntiScurvylovian Society. I can't be an antifruitite (or antifruition as they perfer to call themselves).
