Given that "Why did the chicken cross the road?" is considered the prototypical joke, anti-humour is pretty popular. You may say that a man with an orange for a head is more inherently funny than a chicken, but I would refer you to D Zongker 2006

I always thought of the chicken joke as more a case of giving a Mathematician's Answer then anti-humor.
