It took me a few seconds when I saw it the other day, but then I got it. Probably only got it because I have little kids.

it took me a few seconds, mostly because I thought the last thing was a coconut at first. When I realized it was an orange I got it.

Without looking at other responses:

It’s an old knock-knock joke.

The first one is a succession of bad knock-knock jokes that kids love, where they repeat “knock-knock, who’s there, banana, banana who” three times and end with “orange, orange who, orange (aren’t) you glad I didn’t say banana?” It’s like a kid’s first “shaggy dog” joke.

The second is rhymes - nothing rhymes with orange so the orange is crying.

No, I did NOT get it because it looks more like a cookie to me! It’s sort of brown-ish, not orange… and I don’t have kids.

OP, where did you find the knock knock image - is it on a t-shirt? My 7-yo daughter would go nuts for it.
