Way to Die #498: Choke-A-Lot, is the fifth death featured in "Death Gets Busy", which aired on February 22, 2009.
Plot
If ignorance is bliss, then Carl and Lenny here are ready for nirvana. The best way to describe them? Happy-go-lucky nitwits. The half a brain they shared was the right amount for their job as minimum wage kitchen aides. If you're this stupid, it's like being in the carpool lane on the death highway.
Carl and Lenny are making good time. A couple of sacks of cocoa powder and the race is on. The two idiots pelt and pound each other with wild abandon. If Carl and Lenny were a little less stupid, they might have stopped once they realized they were gradually suffocating from the cocoa-charged atmosphere.
That their lungs had something called "alveoli," tiny air sacs, and that they were filling up with the fine powder, making breathing impossible.
If they were just slightly less stupid, they might have realized if they weren't having fun, they were dying.
