RE: The Spark + Unbewusstes - Finish The Story Contest - Week #66 @bananafish
Ohhhhh the chicken story!!!!
A worse outcome than the ol' "Let's go snipe hunting" ploy country people do to city people, and I have never found it even remotely amusing. Because (as a farm girl) I know that snipe exist, and that shining a light into a chicken's eyes is the way to make them "freeze" (deer in headlights) and get caught. The gag is based on too much logic and not enough "Anyone with half a brain would know not to fall for that."

Lolol, my sister Carol, who never married or had kids, became a Cub Scout leader at age eighteen, because one of our neighbor's kids was in the troop.
I went along as an additional chaperone on a camping trip, in the San Gabriel Mountains, along with the scoutmaster, and I think one of the parents.
And yes, we did indeed take those kids snipe hunting, paper bags and all, and they had a blast . . . and thought it was hilarious the next morning at breakfast, when we let them in on the joke.
;-)
My favorite time was, once we had them at their posts, Carol and the Scoutmaster and I took turn making wild animal sounds. The kids were great fun.
