The History of Knock-Knock Jokes
The history of the knock-knock joke is a little murky, but we do know these quips first appeared around the year 1900 with a slightly different tagline. Back then, they were known as "Do You Know" jokes, though they followed a similar structure to the one we use today.
An example that once appeared in the Oakland Tribune reads, "Do you know Arthur? Arthur who? Arthurmometer!" That joke was particularly popular among flappers, though the '30s saw these jokes used more and more often over the radio.
While they may not be quite as popular as they were in years past, these arguably bad jokes still find their way into pop culture from time to time—The New York Times even featured one when writing up the 2013 political thriller Argo.
