“There once was a Cheerio who lived the simple Cheerio life. He had a Cheerio house with a job in the Cheerio factory. One day, this Cheerio got a promotion to work in a Fruit Loops factory. So, the Cheerio happily accepted the offer and started work immediately. Life wasn’t much different in this Fruit Loop factory until he met another Cheerio. This Cheerio was kind, sweet and an all around amazing breakfast cereal. So, he asks this Cheerio out on a date, which she promptly replies with a yes. Years pass as these two Cheerios grow their relationship, until they decide to get married. On the day of the wedding, Mr. Cheerio decides to get a drink to calm his nerves. He goes out into the party and surveys the drink lines. First up is the juice line, with a long line of Cheerios and Fruit Loops. Second, there’s the ice cream line, with a large crowd of Lucky Charms and Fruity Pebbles. Lastly, he looks over to the fruit punch stand. He’s shocked to see that, despite the many cereals gathered at the wedding, there’s no punch line!”
