This is just something silly I came up with. If you think of your own six word Johnny moment, please share!
Six Word Johnny
The morning sun shined through the window and danced upon Johnny’s eyelids. He opened his eyes and stared straight up at the ceiling. While laying alone in his bed, he said six words. Separate, these words were harmless. There was nothing special about them, just regular everyday words. But together they formed a sentence. In most universes, and on most worlds, this sentence was just silly. It was impossible. But in this universe, on this world, these six words together were fatally stupid.
Johnny said, “I want to punch a dragon.”

“Class, as you can see, because of the rotation of the planet, while one of the world has daytime, the other half has night,” said the teacher.
A little boy near the back of the class stood up and said six words. These words would put him on a journey across the land. They were the start of an adventure that would ultimately end in disappointment. “I’m going to find the Line!”
The teacher just looked at Johnny blankly. “What line?”
Johnny said six more words. If there was any turning back, these words slammed the door and sealed his fate. “The Line between night and day.”
The class applauded. That is if you count the sound of two dozen kids face palming as applause.
Johnny did.
