Thought this story was pretty funny.
Norm Middleton had got the runs from his burrito, so he went into the bathroom of the Ohio State Taco Bell outlet.
He saw a blinding white light emanating from outside the stall.
“It is I, God,” a voice said.
“What is the meaning of life?” Norm asked the light.
“The meaning of life is Ohio.”
“Ohio? Ah, we’re not that special.”
“Oh, but you are. You see, I created the Universe and Earth so Ohio and its residents could exist relatively comfortably and happily. Right between the coasts in the world’s richest country. I tweaked the laws of nature just right so that Ohioans would evolve and enjoy a moderately pleasant existence.”
“Explain, God.”
“Norm my son, it’s called FTBOO.”
“Football? I sure love my Buckeyes.”
“No, it’s an acronym. For The Benefit Of Ohio. F.T.B.O.O.”
“So where do my Buckeyes fit in this?”
“They are at the heart of it all, Norm. I created the Buckeyes to make my humble people happy.”
“Well, Lord - that’s flattering, but weird. Why did you create everything else then? Why not just create a self sufficient Ohio all on its own? You are God, right?”
“Why do you insist on eating Apple Jacks for breakfast, Norm?” God said.
“Um, I like them, I guess,” Norm said pensively.
“Well there’s your answer.”
