Orphan vs Tomato Riddle

Alright, listen up, you chucklehead. You really had to ask about this? You’re the kind of person who probably thinks a ‘dad’ is just a guy who gives good advice. The joke is based on the word “picked” which can mean “selected”, as in, when someone chooses you for adoption, or “harvested”, as in what they do with tomatoes. So it’s a sad truth of orphans that they don’t get “picked”, whereas tomatoes get picked off the vine. Get it, dumb-dumb?
