Reminds me of this one- good grownup to little kid joke:

**Person 1:** How do you put an elephant in the refrigerator? Easy-- you open the refrigerator door, put the elephant inside, and close the door. How do you put a giraffe in the refrigerator?

**Person 2:** Uh, open the refrigerator door, put the giraffe inside, and close the door?

**Person 1:** Wrong! You forgot to remove the elephant first!

The version I heard was…

**Person 1:** How do you put an elephant in the refrigerator? Easy-- you open the refrigerator door, put the elephant inside, and close the door. How do you put a giraffe in the refrigerator?

**Person 2:** Uh, open the refrigerator door, put the giraffe inside, and close the door?

**Person 1:** Wrong! You forgot to remove the elephant first!

then…

Person 1. The lion king invited the whole jungle to a party. Who didn’t show up?

Person 2. I don’t know.

Person 1. The giraffe, it was in the refrigerator.

Person 1. A man crossed a crocodile infested river and survived. How did he do it?

Person 2. I don’t know.

Person 1. He just swam across. The crocodiles were at the party.
