Fun fact that brown is merely dark orange. Brown doesn't exist on the rainbow 🌈

Another fun fact: people with orange hair are called redheads because orange is a relatively new word and orange used to be just a shade of red.

Orange the fruit was the word before it became the colour name, so yeah, you're not wrong. I think before it was just called "yellow-red" or something

No-Joke Joke

A type of statement or question that sounds or looks as though it is humorous, but is in fact, not in any way funny. Also called a non-entendre. Usually simply a reference, or a non-sequitur that is not even accidentally funny. Followed either by the phrase "get it?" or by immediate, raucous laughter if the audience are hipsters. (Hipsters are notorious for laughing at jokes they don't understand, to feign comprehension.)

Explaining a joke is a lot like dissecting a frog.
