At our house when I was growing up, the carpet at the top of the stairs was not quite fastened down, and you could lift up the corner of it. Whenever my younger sister would climb to the top of the stairs, she'd lift up the corner of the carpet and exclaim "Nope, the bacon's not done!", and then go on about her business.
She has no idea why she did this.
