A Fable about Cause & Effect
Though deaf as a bone, Roy had outstandingly earned his position as chief-chef of Native Cuisine. Truly exceptional, his preparations were always insanely delicious, just as his language in general discourse was foul and outrageous - the 'F' word being a fixture of his every utterance.
The sous-chef who took his orders grew accustomed to this offensive habit, but little did Roy realize that each time he vented a particular obscenity, one of his countrymen (including women and children) flinched away into a lurking pocket-sized black hole.
Yeah, really!
Eventually, there came a busy evening in the kitchen when Roy criticized a poorly presented soft-boiled egg, then with a shimmy and a flicker, he was no more.
Although not as yet a kitchen genius, the abruptly promoted sous-chef seems to be a civil, well-spoken supervisor.
No word on the whereabouts of the insatiable celestial phenomenon.
Moral: With physics or food, Opportunity knocks variously.
