I've read one along those lines a while ago. Let's see...
At the animal market, a guy walks up to a farmer holding a duck. The guy asks: "how much for that pig", as to which the farmer answers: "that's not a pig, it's a duck. The guy responds: "shut up you pig, the duck and I are trying to do business here".
A friend of mine was a ship's captain and he's told me that he has actually listened to that conversation's tape. Real or made-up, I can't be absolutely sure but I somehow trust my friend...

Seen it before. Once had a slumlord, errr, landlord when I first moved back to Illinois, he had that picture (sans caption) as his wallpaper on his laptop. He had serious issues. At least now he's a guest of the State of Illinois Department of Corrections.
I guess some people are still stupid enough to consider these things as more than just a simple joke. Well, we can only hope one nice day the human race will learn its lessons.

And to avoid that happening here I strongly suggest you leave that sort of jokes to dark forums.
Evidently my last joke stolen off a chap on facebook was not fully appreciated.
I shall therefore post one stolen off Stephen Fry on Twitter, who stole it off someone else.
Athens Airport Arrivals: a customs official and a passenger: “Nationality?” “German.” “Occupation?” “No, just a vacation.”

Frankly, I don't get the first joke about baby food. But then, I'm American, and I am guessing it is some kind of British humor we "yanks" don't get usually.
Second joke about the German at the airport is good. Might be better if it is mentioned at a French airport.
I kind of figured that the economic situation in Greece had something to do with the joke, but I still like my version better! I suppose it may depend on what side of the Atlantic you're on.
Several from me:
In archeological matters, scientists in Egypt have just discovered a mummified body covered in Chocolate and Nuts - its a Pharaoh Roché.
I'm in trouble at the local pool. I thought I could get away with a crafty piddle in the deep end of the pool, but when the lifeguard blew his whistle I nearly fell in!
