“I work with animals (...) I’m a butcher”

A joke is that a person “works with animals”—and then it is revealed that this person is a butcher. “Best comment of the day…’‘I used to work with animals…Yhh I’m a butcher’” was posted on Twitter by André Hutchinson on December 14, 2010.

I went on a date with a girl who said she loved animals.
I said, “I work with animals every day.”
She said, “That’s so sweet. What do you do?”
I replied, “I’m a butcher!”
