Curing Boredom in Study Hall

The Man with Nothing to Say

There once was a man who sat in a tree and said nothing. No one knew who he was or why he was there. Why are you so quiet? People would ask, to which he would reply with nothing but a blank stare into the distance. After a while, people got tired of trying to make the man talk, so they just let him be. Day after day, he just sat in the tree, saying nothing. It wasn’t until the fourth week that someone noticed that he was dead.

But Mr. Grumbleton, I need to take care of you. And you need to take care of me.
Screw you.

The Yo-Yo
