Lately, my boss has been telling me things in case he gets hit by the turnip truck.
As a child of the ’80s, I flashback to the movie/book by Stephen King, picturing trucks deliberately targeting people and mowing them down.
Now, I know the saying about falling off the turnip truck (meaning naive) and having family in the midwest, I was aware of homicidal turnip trucks and/or drivers of said trucks, but when I looked it up, most entries referred to getting hit by a bus not a turnip truck.
So, I’m thinking this may be a regional take on the whole turnip truck mythology. Either way, since I eat turnips, I guess it’s only fair if they fight back:D
Until next time.
