Lol just kept getting worse
Just when you thought it wouldn’t get better … it got better.
On an animal it’s called a necropsy…
Thanks!
TIL who to avoid at the comedy club!
Hehehe I’m fun at parties too.
RubberDuck isn’t actually a professional stand-up comedian though.
I may have confused them with DubberRuck.
Why is there a name for this???
It helps differentiating between doing it on humans and animals. And sometimes you want to know what killed an animal too.
Nice try, but the “auto” in autopsy refers to working on the body of the same species as oneself, when a human inspects a dead human.
EDIT: this is actually incorrect, etymologically it means witnessing something with the own eyes, from the Greek language, see answer below.
When working on a different species, like an animal, it’s called a necropsy.
Don’t run the joke
Too late.
Run faster?
Get to the choppah
Makes the joke even better implying they have a fursona
If you are serious, it originally means “an eye-witnessing, a seeing for oneself”. Referring exclusively to dead bodies came later.
Damn you’re right, I stand corrected!
The explanation I gave came from my teacher at the university in my linguistics class, better double check everything I guess!
I remember one false etymology my historical linguistics teacher tought me at university and it was debunked on r*ddit so I totally feel you
Thank you, it’s a good day when I get to learn something new!
Oh damn I learned a new thing today. Necropsy sounds sick as hell
Well constructed.
Haha, sex with dead animal, magnificent
It’s not political propaganda or bigotry masquerading. If you don’t like the joke you can just walk away.
👍🏻
Hard one? Yes, I am.
Apologize. What else?
Where my head went with “autopsy”.
I’ll let You know.
