What do you call a fish with two knees?

A two-knee fish!

Why This Joke Works

"Two-knee fish" sounds exactly like "tunafish" — the phonetic trick hinges on breaking "tuna" into "two" and "knee." It's a pun that only works out loud, which makes sharing it in person especially satisfying.

🎤 How to Tell This Joke

Emphasize "two" and "knee" ever so slightly — just enough to nudge people toward the connection without giving it away.

Perfect for:

  • At a deli counter when someone orders tuna salad
  • During school lunch when someone has a tuna sandwich
  • While grocery shopping in the canned fish aisle
