You know the word ‘orange’ is very strange. It means a color and a fruit. I wonder which came first? Did they have the color orange and they saw this weird fruit that hadn’t been named yet and they were like "What the heck let's just call it orange, we are all really lazy.".
         Or did they have the fruit named first and they discovered a new color and were like "So what are we gonna name this one? Something like we named the last one? Yellow, aha what a stupid name...oh wait I’ve got something easier the orange looks like the same color as this, let's just call it that.
         But how would that work? They can't have discovered the color after the fruit because the fruit is that color … hmmm. Maybe they found the fruit and color at the same time and were super lazy and just when "Two is too much! Just name them the same."
         Yup I think it's that one. I'm glad we had this little talk.
