Liberals found something else to tax.

But if you care deeply about doing nothing, then it’s not apathy.

And if I don’t get a permit, then what? Oh, who cares?

Hey. Permits don’t come free.

So you mean to tell me that you have you “pay” to do NOTHING?

“So, sue me.”

“Eh, can’t be bothered. Mind if I join you?”

Warning: heavily tangential story, read at your own risk.

I played a video game called Blue Dragon once where searching objects could get you “nothing,” but nothings acted as their own form of philosophical currency that one guy liked to collect, so he’d sell you items in exchange for nothings. I fell in love with the idea and have since adapted it into D&D games. It turns out people really get a kick out of getting something for nothings.

And your chicks for free!

And they’ll get around to processing your paperwork just as soo as it seems necessary.

hmmm. no “quid pro quo” jokes yet?

How does the employee working for the bureau get up to chase sown slackers?
