Apple and Orphan

Listen here, you smooth-brained twit. You are the kind of person who struggles to count their own toes, I can tell. This joke plays on the word "picked." Apples are picked from trees. Orphans are not, typically, picked from anywhere, they're just kinda there. The dark humor comes from the comparison, highlighting the lack of care orphans often experience. It's morbid because it implies orphans are less valued than fruit. Sad, isn't it? Don't think about it too much, you might hurt yourself.
