The invention of the knock-knock joke had to be done
a) After the invention of doors
b) After the invention of surnames (because the question would make no sense without them)
c) Either as a double act on stage, or as a written joke. Because both people in the dialogue need to have learned how the joke works. If the first inventor of the joke went up to another person and said "Knock knock", he would just get a blank look.

it was invented by 5 year olds
