Bought The Farm

Category: Animation 07 min: 30 sec
Director: Chris Miller

The 3 foolish and lazy bulls of the farm haven't been doing their masculine duties of propagating the herds of cattle, instead they have been wasting their time playing games like poker and tick-tack-toe. One day the farms farmer, Farmer Brown informs the 3 dumb bulls that there is a new bull coming to the farm the to do the job that the 3 bulls haven't been doing, mating with the cows. The 3 moronic bulls are alarmed by the news realizing their comfy lifestyles are in jeopardy. The next day the new bull arrives, and much to the dismay of the 3 out-of-shape bulls, the new bull is a suave and muscular sex machine. The 3 useless bulls realize that if they don't get rid of the new bull as soon as possible they will be sold as hamburger meat, at best! So the 3 bulls devise a plan to de-masculize the new bull so that he is unable to mate with the herd of sex-starved cows. The plan is surprisingly clever for this bunch of hamburgers-in-waiting. Does the plan work? Do they turn the new bull into a humiliated shadow of a stud? or will the new bull be able to provide the cows with the one thing that they can only get from a virile bull? Will the 3 pathetic bulls submit to their destiny and happily slip between two hamburger buns? or will they resist God's will and live to play another hand of Texas-hold-em?
