The explanation.
Morning,
In knock-knock jokes, normally the instigator waits for the second person to say,
(whatever) who?
ie,
Knock knock, who's there?
Ammonia.
Ammonia who?
Ammonia a bird in a gilded cage.
or,
Knock knock, who's there?
Who's there?
Tank!
Tank who?
You're welcome!
-----------------------------
In the above cases, it's courtesy (and part of the joke) to wait for the second person to say, blah blah who?
Unless you're impatient (and hence can't wait), a cow, and can only "moooo."
So! It's
First person: Knock knock
SEcond person: Who's there?
First person who's really a cow in disguise: Impatient cow
Second person: Impatient...
First person who's really a cow in disguise: MOOOOO!
See?
I guess you had to be there. :-)
Best wishes,
Barbara
