A woman left for a night out
with her husband. Halfway to the restaurant, she realized she’d forgotten
something. She turned back and came into the house through the back entrance,
where she saw the baby-sitter putting her baby’s head into the oven.
Horrified, she asked, “What are you doing?” and the babysitter replied,
“Oh I always do this. He always seems to fall asleep without a bit a trouble
this way.”
Variation: One night a man came home from work, and asked his wife what
was for dinner. She replied, “I’m making turkey, with all the trimmings!”
But she was behaving strangely, and he realized she was high on drugs. He
quickly went to check on their baby, but when he went to the crib, he found an
uncooked turkey instead. Frantically, he ran around the house and soon found the
baby in the oven.
