I wonder if he tastes like chicken, too?
That might require some explanation...
True story: When I was growing up, my Dad used to tell me sometimes that he'd "ring my neck" if I did something "bad".
This went on for a few years.
One day, I finally asked him what that meant:
He grew up on a farm, and my Grandma would occasionally ask him to go out in the yard and get a chicken, for dinner.
His practice at the time was to grab a chicken by the head, and swing it around forcefully until its body flew off.
Often, the chicken's body would run around the yard without its head for a while.
He'd go get the chicken's body, and deliver it to my Grandma, along with the head.
I didn't do a lot of "bad" things after that explanation.
On a related note, the phrase "running around like a chicken with its head cut off" was much more meaningful after that.
Disappointing theists since 1968!
