Refers to an assistance-related question --- either a request for a favor or an offer to provide help yourself --- regarding a slightly "cranky" subject dat da person whom you're approaching might otherwise feel annoyed/embarrassed to be queried about; you therefore "soften the blow" by humorously "packaging" your question as a knock-knock joke, and using da first name of dat geeky-lookin' Prez wif da round-rimmed spectacles as da name of da "visitor" in da joke.
Here are da two “classic” ways dat ya would smilingly employ da “pince-nez president poser” to hopefully lessen da distress dat your listener would likely feel to be asked said question:
To ask da person for his assistance:
“Knock, knock…”
”Who’s there?”
“Woodrow!!!”
”Woodrow, who?”
“Woodrow be reasonably able to ___ for me sometime in da next few days?”
Or to offer da person your own assistance:
“Knock, knock…”
”Who’s there?”
“Woodrow!!!”
”Woodrow, who?”
“Woodrow like me to ___ for you occasionally, if it’s reasonably convenient for both of us?”

The Cinderella poser lives in a nicer house than her siblings, comes from a bigger house than her siblings, and has been to every one of her childhood friends' weddings, yet still always claims to be an underdog whenever there is a sports game or something she is desperate to win (with her spoiled rotten sense of injustice and disadvantages in life) . She claims that she was an underdog to the people she claims were in line in front of her/in her way, when in reality they weren't in line for anything, they weren't trying to become royalty (rich and powerful) like she was.

Somebody with a spoiled rotten middle class sense of desperate and urgency, usually in reference to winning sports games.
The Cinderella poser loved to preach about desperation and being one of the marginalized folks, but she didn't actually know anything about being desperate or marginalized from life experience, which is why she was the worst kind of senseless person, the kind that didn't know she wasn't an unbearable enemy, or that she had no common sense.

Someone that never really had to fight/work too hard for anything in life, but still wants the image of somebody that really did those things for show to the world.
The Cinderella poser always had someone else come help/save her if the going started to get tough, or if she started to get beat. She doesn't really know anything about loss, which is why she was never a true Cinderella in the first place.

The guy wished he had been naturally gifted music maker, but knew it wasn't his particular skill set. He would still claim it in public, even if it wasn't his instrument, since he was a band poser.
