“I like frozen apples. They’re hardcore”

“Hardcore” can mean many things. It usually does not refer to a “hard core,” but there are jokes.
 
“I also like frozen apples. They’re hardcore” was printed in The Mirror (London, UK) on December 29, 2000, and was said by comedian Tim Vine. “Frozen apples. They’re hardcore” was printed in the book The Biggest Ever Tim Vine Joke Book (2010) by Tim Vine.
 
       
Wikipedia: Tim Vine
Timothy Mark Vine (born 4 March 1967) is an English writer, actor, comedian and presenter, known for his one-liner jokes, and his role on Not Going Out from 2006 to 2014. He has released a number of DVDs of his stand-up comedy and has written several joke books.
 
29 December 2000, The Mirror (London, UK), “Comedy: Tim Vine - Welcome to the new fast show” by Thomas Quinn, pg. 22:
He’s the fastest gag merchant in the West. The pun-meister, to his pals, he’ll deliver ten jokes a minute, 120 jokes a set. The punchlines hit so fast your sides ache with laughter: “I remember the first thing my mum said to me when I was born. She said, ‘Ah - I was expecting you’. I’m on a special diet. I only eat food with the word special in it. Special K, special fried rice and, of course, Marks & Spencer’s strawberry cream sponge cake. It’s a special offer. I also like frozen apples. They’re hardcore.”
