What do you call a man with 5 penises?
Dunno, but his underwear fits him like a glove.

¹Know your audience - as simple as this joke is, if your audience has a doctor in it, dress it up along the lines of "I read the oddest study the other day about corrective surgery done on a man from Tijuana who had a bifurcated penis. And while it was interesting how the surgeon corrected the bifurcation, ensuring all functionality was there, in describing patient's history he noted that the patient called one José..." Every doctor I've told this to has gotten sucked into the medical side of it so completely that the punchline hits especially hard.

The nun joke (which I came here to post) is better as a series of bad jokes based off the newspaper joke:

What's black and white and read all over?
A newspaper
(guffaws of inappropriately loud laughter)

What's black and white and red all over?
A nun falling down the stairs

Then you use the spear through the head joke. The total disconnect is key to the series of jokes, and also why you'll find it hard to get your friends to answer your phone calls for months at a time.

Personally I like this trifecta told in series:

What's brown and sticky?
A stick.

What's orange and sounds like a parrot?
A carrot.

What's green and invisible?
This apple [while holding out hand palm up, as if holding an invisible apple.

The joy for me here is that you can wrong foot the listener three times as the domain of the punchline changes each time - it starts with a slightly blue adjective-noun pun which if you project into the second set-up will definitely lead you the wrong way. The second joke becomes a different type of pun, but is still word play, which hopefully leads you to project more wordplay into the third set up, which is secretly a visual gag. And they all play off of an object and colour so there's that nice rhythm to the series. Obviously these jokes are hardly new so small children might be the best recipients, and you might want to skip this lengthy deconstruction too...
