The last man on Earth was lonely. So he cloned himself.

But that got boring fast: “I can’t stand talking to myself like that!” he would exclaim himself.

On a boring day at the passport office, some guy burst in. Looked like he’d been attacked by a bear.

Didn’t affect their work performance, though.

“Sounds boring, don’t it?” said the little devil. “Come with me, it’ll be fun!”

“Your pants are on fire,” said John.

“Occupational Hazard,” said the devil.
