Squash.
No, not the vegetable. The noise you make when you get run over by a semi-truck because you were standing in the middle of the street.
You ask your now flattened self, why was I standing in the middle of the street?
Your detached head replies: "Because you thought that you wouldn't be run over like the last ten times you stood out here."
Moral of the day: If you stand in the middle of the street, you will be run over. A truck will always be a truck, it doesn't turn into a furry squirrel on your whim. But even the squirrels run you over sometimes, so just stay out of the street.

That sounds like a deep and important analogy (or maybe a roundabout way) to some important life experience. Now, given that I have not been run over by a semi in the middle of the street, I'm missing the deep, philosophical meaning here... ;-)
