You stumble through the "fun" house, fleeing in terror from your latest creepy encounter. In the hall of mirrors, you see a door tucked between the mirror that makes you look really tall and the mirror that makes you look like Jim Morrison. You duck through it, and find a small clearing. In that clearing stands a boxer, an assembler of boxes by his trade.
"Hey!" he shouts. "You can't be in here! This area is not open to the public."
"That's a lie," you say. "Lie, lie lie."
He softens a little. "Yeah, okay, that's true. I mean, it's true what you said, that what I said isn't true. You can be back here if you want. But it's pretty boring. I mean, I just make boxes all day long.
"That sounds okay," you say. "Could I get a job? I'm asking only workman's wages."
"Sorry, but I don't need any help. D'you want some boxes, though?"
It was lucky of you to run into that guy. Free boxes!
