Sort:
The hail mary opening (h4, h5, h6, a4, a5, a6)

Freak Attack (6.Rg1 in the Najdorf).
I always heard this referred to by an even better name: The Traffic Light variation, because when you play it, your opponent stops to think.
Fried Fox defense (e4 f6 d4 kf7). Fried Fox, presumably referring to your king, and the fact it's called a "defense" are why I find it funny.

I was not asking what is the name of your favorite opening.

I agree. "NONE" would be a pretty stupid name for an opening.
What are the moves that lead to "NONE"?
You don't understand

The best opening name is the Toilet Variation - a line of the Grand Prix Attack. It got it's name from Tartakower thinking it up while he was sitting on the commode.
It is 1.e4 c5 2.f4 (Back then, they did not play 2.Nc3 first in the Grand Prix - 2.Nc3 back then automatically signified that White was about to play the Closed Sicilian) 2...d5! 3.Nc3 (instead of accepting the Tal Gambit with 3.exd5). This is known as the Toilet Variation, or simply, The Toilet.
I was going to mention this one too, but according to my sources it was actually Mark Hebden who thought of it while doing his, erm, business 
The French
