BOB’S ROBOT CHICKEN Meaning Clusters his robot
chicken. Bob asked his
father where robot
chickens come from. His father said “Robot eggs.” Bob asked his
father where robot eggs come from. His father answered “Robot chickens.” So Bob waited for his robot
chicken to lay a robot
egg. After a week with no robot eggs he kicked his robot
chicken in
frustration. It slammed against the wall and the robot
chicken’s gyroscope rolled onto the floor. Bob thought the robot chicken finally laid a robot egg. So he put the robot egg in his sock
drawer. The robot egg never hatched and the robot
chicken kept running
into furniture. Luckily, his father
bought him a robot sea otter the following week which was cooler
anyway. |
