An accountant shows up at the Pearly Gates and stands before St. Peter. St. Peter eyes the dapper little man, and asks:
The accountant replied;
The accountant smiled modestly, and he stood straighter:
St. Peter smiled:
"I haven't much in my scroll about your life. What good and noble acts have you done to merit entrance into Paradise?"
The accountant replied;
"Good Saint, one time I was driving in my Prius and I came across a gang of bikers who were treating a lady very rudely. I stopped, got out of my car, and walked over to their parked motorcycles and tipped them over in the dirt. Then I walked up to the leader of the biker gang-- a big fellow, 6'9'', 300 pounds, tattoos covering huge slabs of muscle."St Peter observed:
"Good. You were defending the lady, my son. Such chivalry."
The accountant smiled modestly, and he stood straighter:
"I looked up at the big lug, and I said with confidence: 'Now listen here, fella-- you leave this lady alone, if you know what's good for you!'
"He didn't respond, so I kicked dirt on his boots, pulled his beard, and flicked his nose ring with my finger. Then I said he was a lily-livered little pansy"
St. Peter smiled:
"Very impressive. All to protect the lady. A true act of courage and charity. When did you do this courageous act?"
"A few minutes ago".
LMAO!

What do accountants suffer from that ordinary people don't?
