MAN IS STANDING ON A PIECE OF GRASS NEXT TO A MAN HOLE COVER MAKING AN IT STINKS GESTURE.
THE GRASS SEEMS TO BE TALKING.
GRASS
Princess Diana was murdered by Prince Philip and Mossad. There was no moon landing, you can see the sets wobble on the film. September 11th was carried out by the CIA with cruise missiles.
MAN DIALS HIS MOBILE.
Hi my sceptic tank needs draining.
I like the punch, but surely this tank is the opposite of a sceptic. More a credulous tank.
What do you think a sceptic tank would say?
I dunno, there's no such thing as UFOs, the Bible's all made up, there's no way you'd get a monster in Loch Ness.

SCEPTIC TANK:
Sootyj is a combination of the Devil, an evil angel, and a vampire sent here from another planet. His mission is to revolutionise the way Earthlings spell and what they laugh at - then return to his/its galaxy.
Oh, double snap!

Sounds more like a dispeptic tank.

Grass: I'm so fat... so very, very fat... I need to hit the treadmil, I need to stop eating!!
Man: Hi, my anorexic tank needs draining.

Grass: Blliiiierrrriirrrrrlllppp

Grass: My neck itches, I'll bet it's some kind of small arachnid
Man: Hi, my neck tick tank needs draining.

Maybe the opposite of a septic tank would be an antiseptic tank. Maybe, maybe not.
EDIT: My mistake, sceptic tank is what the joke is about. Doh!
Any why is it a patch of grass talking and not the tank itself?
I thought that's what septic tanks looked like, a patch of grass with a hatch above.
I wiki'd them and google imaged them.

Very nice extension on a theme.
A septic tank is just a big tank for effluent. It can be buried under grass or concrete.
I reckon you'd be better off having a muffled talking then, when the manhole opens, we hear its theories in full.
At least a manhole has a certain "mouthiness" about it. It's difficult to imagine how you'd show grass talking.
That's a good point.
Maybe just a big sign saying,
"Danger septic tank,"
That would rather tread on your punchline though, wouldn't it?
