“Chuck Norris can rhyme with Orange”

"Orange" has infamously resisted rhyming attempts in English poetry. The closest approximations—"door hinge," "four-inch"—are considered eye-rhymes at best, awkward at worst. It's become a running joke in poetry communities: orange rhymes with nothing. Except Chuck Norris apparently cracked a problem that has frustrated poets and linguists for centuries.
A phonologist named Dr. Sara Mitchell examined this fact and proposed that Chuck might achieve rhyming status through sheer force of personality. "He wouldn't find a word that rhymes with orange," Mitchell suggested. "He would make orange rhyme with something. His will would reshape language to accommodate his needs. Orange doesn't fight back. It will rhyme because Chuck demands it."
The fact endures because it suggests Chuck Norris operates at a level where language itself bends to accommodate him. Poets can't solve this problem; Chuck Norris can. Not through skill or knowledge, but through absolute authority over even the rules of linguistics.
