Deaf accountant joke
Posted by rbalakrishnan on December 13, 2008
Hey wassup people.. I came across this joke yesterday, thought i’d share it here (This joke is not original by any means, it has various forms of it all over the internet, but Reader’s Digest still published this and gave 1000 bucks to the guy who sent this in, December 2008 issue)
There was this major mobster/gangster (very short-tempered), who made millions of dollars everyday by indulging in all sorts of major crime. He hired an accountant to take care of his numerous bank accounts in various countries and keep track of all the money-realted stuff. (This guy being a major criminal and all, he was obviously bad at math and stuff, so he had to hire a guy for that).
This accountant guy happened to be deaf, as well as dumb. He could communicate only through sign language thus, but he picked up cash details real fast and was really efficient in the job assigned to him, hence the gangster found no reason to complain.
A couple of months later, the gangster realised (dim-witted as he was), that the accountant had somehow embezzled $5 million in cash from him. Enraged, he stormed off to the accountant’s house and threatened to rape his wife and burn his kids alive if he did not tell where he’s hidden the cash. But then he realised his threats were futile as the accountant could not understand him. Miffed, he arranged for a sign language interpreter to be sent over, and the conversation went something like this::
Gangster: Ask him where he’s hidden the stolen cash.
Interpreter: Repeats the same to the accountant in sign language.
Accountant: I have no idea what you are talking about, I did not steal anything.(in sign language)
Interpreter: Repeats this in English to the gangster.
Gangster: (Enraged) Tell this mothafucka that i’ll rape his wife and burn his kids after having his penis cut off. He holds a gun to the accountant’s temple and almost pulls the trigger.
Interpreter: Explains this threat to the accountant with some difficulty.
Accountant: (really scared by the threat, frantically signals) OK OK!!!!! I’m really sorry please do not shoot me, I stuffed the cash in a green suitcase and buried it in my cousin barny’s garden and marked the spot with an X.
Interpreter (with a grim look on his face, turns to the gangster and says): This guy has some nerve, boss- He calls you a son of a bitch and says you don’t have the guts to pull the trigger, he asks you to go and f**k yourself.
