Tribune: Bad tax joke(s) of the week


Thank you to everyone who sent in their tax jokes over the last several weeks. Here are a few final submissions from another Tribune reader, Tom K.:

Why did the accountant get into trouble at culinary school? He was cooking the books.

Why was the mullet being audited? Because he wasn’t up front with his business.

Why did the swimmer throw all his gear into the water? Because his accountant told him to pool all his resources.

We’ll wrap up our joke series on this April Fools’ Day Eve with a trip through the Tribune archives. Check out our 2021 article on a few tax-related pranks from years past.
