Is Today Worth a Joke?

Today is National Knock Knock Joke Day.

Knock knock jokes are popular among children aged seven through nine, and accountants.

Knock knock!
Who’s there?
Hanna …
Hanna who?
Hanna a partridge in a pear tree.

You remember them, don’t you?  Well, I didn’t.  I had to look them up.  Here’s one I found.

Knock knock!
Who’s there?
Etch …
Etch who?
Bless you

So I googled “accountant knock knock jokes” and nothing relevant came back.  Nor did anything relevant return from a search on “accounting knock knock jokes.”

Because accountants and knock knock jokes go together like swiss on rye, I thought surely someone had posted at least one accountant knock knock joke. But I couldn’t find any.

Knock knock!
Who’s there?
A funny accountant …
A funny accountant who?
A funny accountant who has no knock knock jokes.

So I started thinking.  Can I create an accounting knock knock joke?   Probably not.

Knock knock!
Who’s there?
Deb …
Deb who?
Debits on the left, credits on the right.

Certainly not this.

Knock knock!
Who’s there?
A tasteful accountant …
A tasteful accountant who?
A tasteful accountant who can cook the books.

Have you any funny knock knock jokes for accountants?  If so, please leave them in the comments below.
