Have you guys ever heard of anti-jokes? Anti-jokes are jokes that are funny not because they're witty or clever, but because they play on the expectations of the audience. They set up expectations for the audience and then simultaniously acknowledge and mock those expectations in the punchline.
Some examples:
A duck walks into a bar. Animal control is promptly called and the duck is released in a nearby park.
Q: Whats brown and sticky? A: A stick!
Q: What's worse than biting into an apple and finding a worm? A: The holocaust.
Knock knock. Who's there? To. To who? To whom.
Q: Whats red and smells like blue paint? A: Red paint.
Q: What did the homeless man get for christmas? A: Nothing
Q: What's the difference between a bicycle and a black man? A: A bicycle is an object and a black man is a human being.
A Christian and an Atheist are in a bar. The Christian says "if you don't believe in God you will go to hell." The Atheist replies "if there was a benevolent supreme being, logic dictates that there would be proof of his existence other than a 2,000 year old book." They agree to set aside their petty differences and get on with their lives. (LOL GET IT?!?!?)
All of these were stolen from anti-joke.com because I'm a thief and a plagiarist. What anti-jokes can you guys come up with? Basically the rules are that it can't be a regular joke. It has to set up expectations for the punchline and then totally change directions entirely. A joke that starts with "How do you wake up lady gaga in the morning?" CANT END WITH "Poke 'er face!" Instead, end it with something like, "You let her sleep because its sunday and she was out late last night and she needs her beauty sleep."
Basically, start a common joke (X walks into a bar, Whats the difference between X and Y, Knock Knock, etc) and play with the audience's expectations. I'll put some of the jokes that make me laugh into the OP. Super easy! Good luck!

they got on with their lives as opposed to having a continued pointless argument? Where as in almost every normal case people feel the need to argue about it for hours :O.
the red paint one really got me the first time i heard it.
this is my favorite one.
A woman is shopping at a grocery store. She picks up a half gallon of skim milk, 2 loaves of wheat bread, one dozen organic eggs, and some carrots. She goes to the checkout line. "You must be single." the clerk says. Amazed at the flattering insight of the clerk, the woman says, "Yes I am. How could you tell?". "Because you're ugly".
