Certainly!  Of course, many esoteric programming languages are intended to be jokes themselves. But I'll do my best!

##### Chicken
Chicken has just three tokens, the word "chicken", " ", and "\n". The compiler interprets the amount of "chickens" on a line as an opcode instruction which it uses to manipulate data on a stack. A simple chicken program can contain dozens of lines with nothing but the word "chicken" repeated countless times. Chicken was invented by Torbjörn Söderstedt who drew his inspiration for the language from a parody of a scientific dissertation.

###### *Joke:*
- "Why did the chicken cross the road?" "COMPILER ERROR: Unexpected tokens before 'chicken'"

##### Chef
Chef is a stack-oriented programming language created by David Morgan-Mar, designed to make programs look like cooking recipes. Programs consist of a title, a list of variables and their data values, and a list of stack manipulation instructions. 

###### *Jokes:*
- Design principle: "program recipes should not only generate valid output, but be easy to prepare and delicious!" 
- Morgan-Mar notes that an example Hello World program with "101 eggs" and "111 cups oil" may not feed the world, but would produce "a lot of food for one person."

##### INTERCAL
INTERCAL was created in 1972 as a parody to satirize aspects of the various programming languages at the time.

###### *Joke:*
- INTERCAL is short for "Comp**i**ler La**n**guage Wi**t**h No P**r**onoun**c**e**a**b**l**e Acronym".

##### LOLCODE
LOLCODE is designed to resemble the speech of lolcats. The following is the "Hello World" example:
> HAI
> CAN HAS STDIO?
> VISIBLE "HAI WORLD!"
> KTHXBYE

While the semantics of LOLCODE is not unusual, its syntax has been described as a linguistic phenomenon, representing an unusual example of informal speech and internet slang in programming.

###### *Jokes:*
- Every program in LOLCODE is a meme, but not every meme is a LOLCODE program.
- Grumpy cat memes do not compile.
- Ceiling cat is watching you code.

##### Piet
Piet is a language designed by David Morgan-Mar, whose programs are bitmaps that look like abstract art. The execution is guided by a "pointer" that moves around the image, from one continuous coloured region to the next. Procedures are carried out when the pointer exits a region.

There are 20 colours for which behaviour is specified: 18 "colourful" colours, which are ordered by a 6-step hue cycle and a 3-step brightness cycle; and black and white, which are not ordered. When exiting a "colourful" colour and entering another one, the performed procedure is determined by the number of steps of change in hue and brightness. Black cannot be entered; when the pointer tries to enter a black region, the rules of choosing the next block are changed instead. If all possible rules are tried, the program terminates. Regions outside the borders of the image are also treated as black. White does not perform operations, but allows the pointer to "pass through". The behaviour of colours other than the 20 specified is left to the compiler or interpreter.

Variables are stored in memory as signed integers in a single stack. Most specified procedures deal with operations on that stack, while others deal with input/output and with the rules by which the compilation pointer moves.

###### *Jokes:*
- Piet produces the only modern art that programmers can understand.  Likewise, it produces the only programming code that modern artists can understand.
- Piet was named after the Dutch painter Piet Mondrian. The original intended name, Mondrian, was already taken by an open-source statistical data-visualization system ...which could have led to both art critics and programmers alike mistakenly staring at a lot of statistician infographics, searching for the inner meaning.
