Irish moving joke:

Paddy and Joe were helping Seamus move house. Paddy and Joe were struggling to get a heavy wardrobe downstairs.

Joe: Where's Seamus? We could do with his help with this wardrobe.

Paddy: Sure, he's inside keeping the hangers in place.

Reminds me of one of Jeff Foxworthy's "You might be a redneck if..." series:

"Someone in your immediate family has died immediately after saying 'Hey, watch this!'"
