A leech-joke;
When a person attempts to ride the coattails of a joke that someone else has just made. The leech joke will, in one-hundred percent of cases, involve the same basic premise as the original joke, though the leech may slightly alter words to attempt to inject some degree of originality into proceedings.
The leech-joke will commonly receive:
a) a few charity cough-laughs
b) a look of confused disdain from everyone within earshot.
c) a violent reprisal

A Social Example of a Leech-Joke in Practice:
(To group at table)
Ted: ... so essentially what she's saying is that she did not notice a vas deferens between either..
(raucous laughter)
(at same table, seconds later)
Derek: (loudly) Yes, because they both had penises, but neither was very different, at all!
(Cue coughing and shoe-gazing around the table as fellow diners try desperately to avoid eye-contact with Derek.)

American Jokes are jokes which are not made in America. Yet, these jokes can be made in America, but apart from America, they can also be made in China, Hong Kong SAR, Indonesia, Ethiopia, North Pole, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, the Sun...... wherever place you can think of which allow people to live. American Jokes are simply abbreviated as "AJ", which, obviously, comes from its original name American Joke.
So how did American Jokes become jokes? Once upon a time, there was a place named Quality College where students were capable of making very bad jokes. Those jokes are definitely totally utterly not funny at all, but students just loved making those cold jokes. One day, someone suddenly gave these bad jokes a name, AMERICAN JOKE.
It was rumoured that the term American Joke was invented by a student named "Sir iohC niwdE". Such a term was efficiently spread away by another fellow "A ginM", "maL noraA", "eeL ynneB" and "nhoJ osT". They are the founders of the "American Joke Society" (abbr. AJs), which is one of the biggest AJ as well.
Recently, the rumour was proved to be false. Yet, the rumour still remains to be one of the top AJ recently.
That is why these jokes are called American Jokes nowadays. But in fact no one can really explain how America is connected to those Jokes, or since when has American become a joke. Anyway, the name itself demonstrates the true meaning of the American Joke. It is that, a joke which is expected to be a joke, a joke which is formally a joke, a joke which is supposed to make others laugh, but at the end not being so "joky" as expected at all. Do you find the term American Joke a joke?
However, as students were becoming lazier and lazier, they eventually found the term American Joke too clumsy to pronunce. Instead, they gave this term another shorter version: simply known as AJ. Due to the simplicity of such a term and its effectiveness in preventing people from producing endless meaningless non-interesting yet troublesome dead-airing cold jokes, it was quickly spread among the community that nowadays every one knows about "AJ".

When a group of men gather in the bathroom to masturbate while there is a turd in the comode and while sponsor's mom is in the shower.
Man, the other day we had the best joke off ever at my brothers' friend's house. What set the tone for it was when his hot mom went into the shower. Meanwhile, my brother had just tooken a crap and didnt flush. I was to easily the first one to climax in our joke off, as I had seen a smoking hot silhouette coming off the shower curtains.
