A blonde was upset and called her boyfriend for help with a jigsaw project that wouldn’t go together. She begged, “Please come over and help me.” “I’m stuck and can’t figure out where to start.”
Her boyfriend became interested. “What’s the puzzle supposed to be when it’s finished?” he asked me.
“It looks like a rooster from the box,” she said.
The boyfriend was interested and chose to help. When he got there, he looked at the puzzle parts that were all over the table. He cracked a smile after just a moment of looking at her.
“I’ve got some bad news,” he laughed. “These pieces will never form a rooster, no matter how hard we try.”
The blonde looked confused, and her boyfriend’s next idea caught her off guard. “Why worry about it? “Let’s get some tea and put these Corn Flakes back in their box.”
The “puzzle” turned out to be a box of breakfast cereal, and the parts were simple Corn Flakes. A frustrating situation was turned into a funny one by the boyfriend’s quick wit and playful answer.
When you step back and look at things again, funny things can happen that you didn’t expect. People will remember this boyfriend’s clever tea and Corn Flakes answer for a long time.
