Alright listen up, dummy! This joke is a dark one because it compares an orphan to an apple. An apple "gets picked" meaning someone chooses it and takes it home. But for an orphan to "get picked" means they get adopted. The joke implies no one wants to adopt the orphan. You are a smart cookie aren't you?
