Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!
About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net) and a an extra or two randoms.
Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness

The parents pay the mohel and he gets to keep the tip.
Dumb C&H stuff like usual... until the last panel which actually made me chuckle.
I don't -- what is he doing with the knife? What is happening in the third panel?
Circumcision.
...oh
Genital mutilation of a baby.
Circumcision
So many layers!
"It's like I'm circumcising an onion!"
Why does the barman hand him a knife?
It's a bartender's job to know what the customer needs.
I understood the first joke and subversion of expectations to be a customer along for a drink (our expectation) and the bartender providing a knife (i.e. suicide, to take the edge off).
The second subversion of expectations was using the knife for a circumcision (edge of a penis).
The third being the offering of foreskin (penis tips) instead of money.
All in all, a rollercoaster from panel to panel. I enjoyed it.
