And they can be kinda messed up too. I had an impromptu where I called my TA some names that shouldn't be repeated lol.

Also, do you know of any long setups? I could do one liners for days but after dinner speeches usually have a long setup one.

The loader in the following picture is hauling away:
A. Harvested switchgrass blades
B. Miscanthus rhizomes
C. Samples from a recent underarm hair trimming by a female Environmental Studies TA

State that the winner will get a lifetime supply of deodorant (hold up a single travel size deodorant stick).

So you're looking for an aristocratic ag joke?

An environmentalist pedaling his bike down the road stopped to watch a farmer feeding apples to his pigs. The farmer would hold a pig up to the tree and let it eat its fill before letting it go, and then holding the next one up to the tree to eat.

"Excuse me, Sir," said the environmentalist, after about twenty minutes, "that is a very environmentally-friendly practice, but do you realize how much time it would save if you picked the apples yourself and then fed them to the pigs all at once?"

"You're right!" responded the farmer. "But, there's really no need to do that."

"No need? Why not? You're wasting so much time!"

"Yes," responded the farmer, "but what's time to a pig?"

Seems to me the roles would likely be reversed...the environmentalist would be doing the "feel-good nice to animals" thing, and the farmer would be the one using actual logic.

Not at all. You have to be philosophical to be (and stay) in farming.
