The guy buying out all the shares in the corporation you work for, and who plans to downsize you and all your friends, is actually an animated Egyptian mummy with dreams of re-establishing the rule of the Pharaohs over all the earth. Your company manufactures the one specific substance he needs to complete his plan, which is why he's downsizing anyone savvy enough to have an idea what he's up to. Of course, pure evil is what animates him, and also what does his thinking for him (because he has no physical brain). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, pure evil is what animates him, and also what does his thinking for him (because he has no physical brain). Man, that same ol' story! It happened to me at least a half dozen times! NT: Complex situations for which setting the appropriate person on fire would be a prominent component of the ideal solution. Pushing one domino causes the other dominos to fall, and when the last one falls it drops into a plastic cup, causing the cup to fall off the table. It lands on a lever, which tosses a ball up and through a net. When the ball hits the paddle at the bottom of the net, it dumps a cup of gasoline on the head of a speech-making politician. The politician's statements cause an audience member to do a facepalm, with one end of a string tied to his wrist. The other end is tied to a Lincoln Log which is sitting at the top of a ramp, blocking a wooden soap box derby car. The removal of the log causes the car to race down the ramp, and a match taped to the car scrapes across sandpaper at the bottom of the ramp, lighting the match. The car completes its journey at the politician's feet, where the match lights the dripping gasoline, causing the politician's gasoline-soaked clothing to ignite. The panicking policitian runs across the room and dives into a full kiddie pool. The displaced water sloshes over the sides, landing in grooved tracks and flowing downhill where it causes a water wheel to turn. A rubber band connects the water wheel axle to an empty thread bobbin, causing that bobbin to turn and roll a length of string around the bobbin. The pull of the string helps turn the reader's page. Man, I love those Rube Goldberg machines! NT: What did the soon-to-be-ignited politician say that was so facepalm-worthy?
