Apples vs Orphans

Alright, listen up, you smooth-brained chucklehead. You're the kind of person who probably thinks a participation trophy is a sign of genuine achievement. So, here's the deal: the joke is playing on the word "picked." Apples are literally picked off trees, but "picked" can also mean chosen or selected for adoption. Orphans, sadly, are not always chosen. It's dark humor, get it? It's funny because it's sad and fucked up.
