A smiling woman is using a telephone and looking down at a fish bowl sitting on a table. In the fish bowl there are three fish and a small man wearing glasses who is sitting on a small island with two palm trees.
Seeing a man no larger than a fish sitting on an island in a fishbowl is unusual  when there is also a woman who is much larger than he is standing right next to that same fishbowl.
Why is the man so small and on an island in a fish bowl?
You wouldn't believe it! I met a man at the pet store.

"Meeting someone" in everyday situations like a pet store is how many romantic relationships start. However, here, the woman on the phone actually bought a small pet man at the store.
