A woman walks into a butcher’s shop just before closing time and asks, “Do you have any chicken?”
The butcher opens his fridge, takes out his only chicken, and puts it on the weighing scales. It weighs 1.5 kg.
The woman looks at the chicken and at the scales and asks, “Do you have one that’s a bit bigger than this one, please?”
The butcher puts the chicken back into the fridge and then takes it out again, but this time, when he puts it on the scales, he keeps his thumb on the chicken. The scales now show 2 kg.
“That’s wonderful,” says the woman. “I’ll take both of them, please!”
