Baking Their Own Bread

A term used to describe a fictional character's death as predictable.

The term is a reference to the 2009 blaxplotation parody film, Black Dynamite, in which a character describes the idyllic future he has planned with his wife, moments before he is killed.

"When we get back home, I'm gonna retire from the revolution, start a family, buy a home in the country, raise our own fruits and vegetables, bake our own bread! Yeah, bake our o-"

The character's description of his dreams for retirement and pastoral living were never mentioned before this point in the story, and were only revealed moments before his death, as a tongue in cheek way of endearing the character to the audience.

The movie's name sake, Black Dynamite, then reinforces this self-aware joke, by momentarily breaking the forth wall to say, "Who saw that coming. Uh- I mean who saw where that came from?"

The term can be used anytime you notice a previously ignored character talking about their wonderful future plans, in what you believe may be an attempt to give their death more gravitas.
"Uh oh, our two favorite characters are talking about running away to a safe island together to live happily ever after once this epic battle is over. I sure hope they live, but it sounds like their baking their own bread to me!"

"How did you know that character was going to get killed off?"

"Oh her? Didn't you see her talking about how all her dreams were coming true, just moments earlier? She was totally baking her own bread for the last ten minutes of this episode!"

OR

(Moments after a character is killed, one might shout)

My own work

No you are making shit up because you want to tell yourself that but I said my ideas were better and they are. My rhetoric. My argument. You used it to get Trump elected. So they ARE better because I AM better. Than you. Fucking Kim Kardashian. Taylor Swift. Every name on the list and you were more concerned with YOUR OWN CELEBRITY than MY THING and now there is very real possibility that you both murdered Liam Payne and failed to prevent perfectly preventable child-murder. Right? Like, I stopped my child murder and my suicide guy. Like... What were you doing this whole time that you didn't say your child from the murder? Stealing my ideas and living off the proceeds of my wildly superior mind-brain? Some of you are. Some of you WERE doing that.
Hym "No the money comes from my own work and you are lying and making shit up to sandbag me because the second your fans find out about the cover-up and what you're been doing for the past 4 years then you are DONE-ZO! You didn't save your child murder kids. I did. I saved my suicide guy. You got Suchir Balaji, my AI whistleblower, kill or made him kill himself because you greedy fucks are trying to scavenge off my thing. So no fucking AI copyright shit for any of YOU."

Ruin his own life

No. He did not...
Hym "Ruin his own life. Someone heard what he said and DECIDED TO DO THAT TO HIM. You're a fucking retard. Your life hinges on the whim of the mob so YOU have a vested interest in allowing them to do shit like that and I say 'Them' because, again, what did he do to himself? Did he call his own job? No? Then WHO DID IT? DO THEY HAVE A NAME? THAT IS WHO RUINED HIS LIFE."

A fucking simpleton "But I say good words and they gives me money. He say bad words!"

Hym "....... Yup. Ok, I forgot who I was dealing with. I forget sometimes that I'm basically yelling at special needs kids.... Yup."
