					Rather than the anti-climax joke, I think I prefer the bizarre:
 Q- How many surrealists does it take to change a light bulb?
 
 A- 2.  One to hold on to the giraffe, and the other to fill the bathtub with brightly coloured machine tools.

	In the late sixties, one of my sisters moved to Germany along with her Army husband. They chose to live off-base and rented a small apartment from a local. Lorie had college-level German. She also had a T-shirt that said "Bull Shirt," and one day her landlord asked her what it signified.  She ended up explaining it as "American humor," which evidently satisfied him!

					This one is more absurdist, but I love it.
 Two sausages are in a frying pan.
 The first one says "Is it getting hot in here?"
 The second one screams "Aaah!  A talking sausage!"

I'm not sure if many people share my sense of humour though   
 
 Look up Henny Youngman for some inspiration.
 My favorite of his is
 
 Two buffalo were roaming across the plains. One buffalo suddenly stopped. The other buffalo asked "Why did you stop?". The first buffalo said "I heard a discrouraging word"
