John falls asleep next to his wife, in bed. After some time, he sees St. Peter. John: “am I dreaming?” St. Peter: “no John, you’ve passed away in your sleep… unfortunately, we’re not ready for you yet. We’ll need to send you back, but unfortunately, we can only send you back as a chicken.”
John thinks about this for a moment, and agrees. There’s a blinding flash of light, and when John opens his eyes, he finds that he’s in a chicken coop.
The chicken next to him says “hey, you haven’t laid any eggs today. The farmer will slaughter you if you don’t lay any” John: “I don’t know how” Chicken: “it’s easy. You just go ‘bock bock booock’ and squeeze real hard.”
John: ok, I’ll give it a try. Bock bock BOOOOCK” John squeezes hard, and out pops a massive egg.
Chicken: “whoa! That’s a massive egg!” John: “I think I can lay a bigger one. Watch this: bock bock BOOOOOOOOCK” and John squeezes harder than before, and out pops an even bigger egg!
Chicken: “goodness, that’s the biggest egg I’ve ever seen!”
John: “hold on, this one will blow your mind… BOCK BOCK BOOOOOOO-”
And at that moment, John’s wife elbows him in the ribs and shouts “JOHN, YOU ARE DREAMING…STOP POOPING IN THE BED” (H/T TNDeplorable)
Movies and TV shows have always found ways to partner with cereal companies as part of their promotional strategy.
It actually kind of makes sense. The box sits in someone's pantry or on the breakfast table every morning giving the movie or TV show title plenty of time to become engrained in the consumer's head.
Then, there were the little plastic toys that came in the cereal boxes that made kids clamor for their parents to pull over the shopping cart so they could get a better look. The kids (and their parents) were hooked.

A Florida woman is facing several charges after she allegedly pepper-sprayed her ex-girlfriend and ran over the victim with a vehicle. Miami-Dade police arrested 37-year-old Sharron Wright on Christmas Eve over an incident that reportedly happened early Thanksgiving morning (November 23), according to an arrest report obtained by WPLG.
The alleged attack unfolded after 5:30 a.m. at an apartment complex on Southwest 107th Avenue in the county's West Perrine area. The victim and her current girlfriend approached someone's apartment after Wright told that person to check her doorbell camera and vehicle tires, which were reportedly vandalized.
The suspect then pulled up in her car, and the ex-girlfriend attempted to "defuse the situation," police wrote. That's when Wright allegedly maced her former partner in the face and punched her repeatedly, the report states. Officers claim the victim's current girlfriend tried breaking up the fight, but she was also pepper-sprayed and attacked.
At some point, Wright's son, who was inside the car, hopped out and joined in the brawl, according to cops.
