Humerus is a real word, despite what my spell-checker is trying to tell me. This comic came to me at a children's museum up in PA where they had a life-sized Operation game in the medical play-pretend area. It was very nicely done. Only tangentially related, there's a minor Star Wars character named Feemor and I keep thinking of his name when I write femur.
Explanation: The second character is laughing (humorously) at the leg bone (femur, not humerus - which is an arm bone).
Text:
P: This is the fossil I discovered. Why are you laughing?
F: Didn't you find this humerus?
P: That's a femur.
