Let's compare them.

If we're talking about the highest quality of both...

...I prefer oranges.
They don't bruise, they come in a neat package, they have a better juice.
Then again....

A Granny Smith, I once traded a girl an apple for sex. (I should have kept the apple.)

Apples make good pie. Adam and Eve were booted out of the Garden of Eden cause of apples.

Apples for christ sake!!!  Pies, candied apples, green, red, and yellow!  

Oranges are just sticky!

I think the poll should be recounted.  I saw a chad hanging!

I demand a recount.  No, a new election.

This ballot was too confusing.

I accidentally voted for oranges, the winner so far, when I really meant to vote for the loser.

Also, the orange people are intimidating the apple underclass.

Depends.  Are they [b]American[/b] Apples and  Oranges?

American apples and oranges are better than everyone elses apples and oranges.

They taste better, have more juice, and are grown in a FREE land.

Apples SUCK! They cost way more than they should, and software is geared towards graphics arts. Not nearly enough engineering apps available. And there are way less games for Apples than,,,   oh,,,  uh,,,,  OK, maybe I do like apples better. I have a tree in my back yard.

Oranges!!!  Versatile and quite flexible!  Not just for food . . .  just take an empty pillowcase and fill with oranges.  

Internal damage, not much bruising.  (ehehe I think you can also use cans for this)

(think I heard of this from an old movie)

Apples without a doubt...much more utilitarian...you can make juice with them as well as bake with them..apples have been arround a lot longer and have many more varietes and can be grown in more climates than oranges...apples are not subject to frost..as are oranges...apples are for independent americans who can grow their own..oranges are for socialists who must depend on warmer climate to supply them thereby allowing a certain amount of control over those who consume them...the average american can grow his/her own...[b]APPLES[/b]..they are [b]AS AMERICAN AS MOM'S APPLE PIE[/b]
It saddens me to see how many voted for oranges...just shows how this country has debauched itself in the last twenty years
BTW Adam and Eve werent "booted" out for eating apples...they were expelled for 1. disobeying God's command 2. to keep them from eating of the tree of life

Oranges:
You can cut a small hole in it, squeeze out the juice and then refill it with tequilla.
A portable tequilla Sunrise.
MmmMmmm Good!

Try that with an apple!

Granny Smith apples.

Apples of course! Apples I say!
I still recoil in horror remembering the horrible Cuban oranges we were allowed to buy in the town store once a year at Christmas. Gack, Argh, Yuck! Skin like Wehrmacht holster leather, the flesh like DDT-flavored straw.....

A good old German apple on zee other hand, now there's somezing vholesome and healzy, jawohl! Ein guter deutscher Apfel!

Add a little brewers yeast and let set in a cool basement for a week or so capped but not tightly.  Siphon contents into plastic contaner and freeze.  Bust it up in a strianer to concentrate alcohol.

Try a Mutsu or a Cameo.

Best damn food on the face of the Earth.

The movie you're thinking of was 'The Grifters'... and you mixed the brusing part up; oranges in a pillowcase will leave great and dramatic bruses, but no real damage to your body.  They were discussing how to pull a scam on an insurance company (I believe).  Cans in a pillowcase will mess a guy up permanantly (ala 'Bad Boys'... The [b]real[/b] movie with sean penn, not that stupid martin lawrence flick).

That being said... I'd go for Apples.  I like applesauce with my porkchops. mmmmm

I humble stand corrected.  Seems like my memory is even worse that I thought.  GOTTA GET ME SOME MORE RAM is what I SAY!

BUt hey thanks for the clarification about oranges and cans.  Sides, cans are more easily bought from soda stands.
