Just no. These attempts to rhyme “orange” are strained at best, tortured mostly. It’s not a trope, it’s just a fact. “Hinge” doesn’t work either. It’s ok. Not every word has to have a rhyme.
Anyway:
Oar Hinge?
Ok, the proper term is probably oar lock, but…
Well put. “Orange, shmorange”.I always say.

As someone who has been ridiculed for my regional pronunciation of ‘orange’ (rhymes with ‘syringe’ where I grew up) I have to say I am not buying what you are selling. I think Eminem brings a critical lens both to a lyricist’s creativity with rhyming (i.e. it’s not all moon/june/soon/), but also to the ‘facts’ of common wisdom.
Certainly, we can agree that any and every word has a rhyme with nonsense speak (surely ‘orange’ rhymes with ‘porange’ yes?), but that leads pretty quickly to onomatopoetic rhymes, and, as Eminem deftly illustrated to rhyming across multiple words, and with creative use of inflection and pronunciation. These approaches to rhyming are also ‘facts’. You definitely do not have to like them! But then there’s the geek culture wisdom about not yucking others’ yums.
