A man and woman are sitting in their living room. The woman is on the couch and has an angry expression on her face. Int the middle of the room is a large hippopotamus.
There is a very large hippopotamus in the middle of a living room and they're too dangerous for that.
What is the hippo doing in this house? Where did they find a hippo?
He was a terrible pet—why did we think he'd make a great coffee table?

A surreal joke about a man trying to convince his wife that the hippo he bought for a pet was a good idea. After failing to convince his wife that the hippo is a good pet, he has repurposed the hippo as a coffee table by placing it in the middle of their living room. She is again unimpressed with its functionality in this capacity.
