Is that a bilious green?

The stairs are pink.
There is an elephant of the same color sitting on them.
 
Even a one story house with no basement can have an attic with stairs leading to it! I would have to conclude the guy is color blind and it matters little what color the stairs are. :-)
 
A coach is a car right?
