I feel like this is a shout-out to the (awesome) Danish satire radio program "Chris and the Chocolate Factory"...

For those of you non-Danes, the concept of the sketches is very very simple. Chris is a lazy factory worker (though it's never made clear what it is Chris exactly does at the factory). Every morning, Chris is late to work, often awoken by his boss, Mike, by a phone call. Chris then makes up wild excuses for why he is late or why he thinks he should stay home for the day. Excuses that includes "A fox have eaten all of my clothes" and "Someone parked a crane outside my front door." and even "I'm actually dead, and calling you from my coffin." A block of burning cheese would fit right up Chris' alley.
