“A guy walks into a bar...” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” An auto-correct version is:

“Auto-correct walks into a bar. And the batman says, ‘Why the log fence?’”

This is a variation of the popular version involving a horse: “A horse walks into a bar and the barman says, ‘Why the long face?’” The joke was posted on Reddit—Jokes on February 3, 2015.
