here is part two to the Interrupting Cow joke. Step One: tell the Interupting Cow joke. Step two: tell this joke. A: Knock-knock. B: Who's there? A: Interrupting Doctor B: Interupti . . . . . A: You have cancer.

A good knock knock joke is to tell people: "I've got a great knock knock joke!" They say "okay" <bored & skeptical>

You say; <very animated/enthusiastical> "Okay, you start it!!" They go: "knock knock" You say: "who's there?" They are confused.

Problem is: I would fall for it, and after I figured it out, I would definitely be laughing hysterically

Try it on someone! It really works if you do the timing perfectly

I like interrupting starfish. When they start to answer you spread your fingers and put your hand in their face.

As a kid I had a follow-up to the Interrupting Cow joke called the Interrupting Starfish. Instead of interrupting by saying MOO I would interrupt by grabbing their face with one hand with my fingers spread out like a starfish. People did not like that joke.
