      A joke is when you say

      "A guy walks into a bar with a dog, and he says ‘I’ve got a talking dog’.

      And the barman says ‘No way’.

      And the guy says ‘No trust me, and he’s also really smart. If you give him £5, he’ll do whatever you want’.

      So the barman gives the dog £5, and says ‘bring me back a newspaper, and don’t forget the change’,

      Then the dog says ‘okay’ because he’s a talking dog. Then he walks out the pub.

      They wait. Then they way, then they wait, then they wait. Then it’s two hours later and the dog hasn’t come back.

      So the guy and the bartender go out looking for the dog.

      They look all round the town, then eventually they find the dog down an alley with a lady dog, and they are clearly getting it on hot and heavy.

      The guy is shocked and he says ‘HEY! What are you doing? You’ve never done this before!’

      And the dog calls back ‘I’VE NEVER HAD THE MONEY BEFORE!’"

          Really? Cause I think an anti-joke would be :-

          I took my girlfriend to the dance, but first I went to get her some flowers. It took me forever, because there was a very long line at the shop for flowers.

          We arrived at the dance, and she asked if we could have our photo taken. But it took us forever because there was a very long line to get your picture taken.

          I went to get her some snacks, but it took forever because there was a very long line at the snack bar.

          Then she asked if I could get her some punch, and I went and got it and brought it back, and it took no time at all.
