Little Johnny Quit Bugging Me

Little Johnny, on a day when he was being particularly reckless, was
playing in the backyard one morning. Soon, some honeybees started
swirling around, annoying little Johnny. He began stomping on them in
his temper. His father caught him trampling the honeybees, and after a
brief moment of thought said, "That's it! No honey for you for one
month!"

Later that afternoon, Johnny pondered upon some butterflies, and soon
started catching them and crushing them under his feet. His father
again caught him, and after a brief moment of thought, said, "No
butter for you for one month!"

Early that evening, Johnny's mother was cooking dinner, and got jumpy
when cockroaches started scurrying around the kitchen floor. She began
stomping on them one by one until all the cockroaches were dead.
Johnny's mother looked up to find Johnny and his father standing there
watching her. Johnny looked at his father and said, "Are you going to
tell her, dad, or do you want me to?"
