A boy is born with just a head. No neck, body, arms or legs. His parents love him, and vow to give him a life like any other child.
The boy lives a fulfilling and miraculous life, and when he turns 18, his father takes him to a bar for his first pint of beer.
The boy takes his first sip, and after finishing the beer, suddenly his neck pops out.
“By God!”, his father exclaims. “You’ve grown a neck!” His father urges him to drink another beer, to see if anything else might happen. Without hesitating, the boy drinks another beer. Suddenly, a torso pops out. The entire population of the bar are cheering him on.
His father and everybody else are urging him to drink more, and with each finished drink pops another body part. First, a pair of arms, then a pair of legs. This continues until his entire body is fully grown.
“Father, I can’t believe it! I can finally walk. I can use my hands, and my legs. I can even run! Watch!”
Without further ado, the boy runs out of the bar, shouting joyfully.
Suddenly, the boy runs into a busy road, and is unfortunately ran over by a truck.
The boy died instantly.
Everybody in the bar is silent – besides the bartender, who says to the boys father;
“What a shame. He should have quit whilst he was a head.
