A high school friend posted on her status "I like your new girlfriend, what breed is she?" 
Then there's a religious joke I found on Yahoo Answers, someone said "Why are no Jehovah's Witnesses in Heaven? Because God and St. Peter are hiding behind the gates whispering "Let's pretend we're not in!" "
Is there a special name for jokes where the punch line is 'flipped', beloved of the News Quiz amongst others?
e.g.
The Councils of Birmingham and Kabul are in talks to twin the two cities.
Formally an important regional administrative centre but now largely derelict and with a high number of penniless refugees, Birmingham is in the West Midlands.
