Ralf: I think my application may have been rushed

Ralf: You see Thane, the career assignment process on Xyo was pretty direct...

Thane: So tell me Ralf, how'd you score a sweet job like Destroyer of Earth?

[Left sign: REALLY COOL JOBS, experience required]
[Right sign: JOBS TO LOSE YOUR WILL TO LIVE BY, no experience required]
Ralf: I don't think I like the direction this is going.
Ralf: Thane would you be upset if I told you I was an alien sent here to destroy your planet?
Thane: (wearing a sign that reads: aliens have come to destroy us all) Could I stand next to you so I could say, "I told you so" to the whole world?
Ralf: What would it matter, everyone would be disintegrated moments later?
Thane: Still! Imagine the look on their faces!
Ralf: Thane, what's this sign for? (sign reads: FREE HUGS)
Thane: Oh, that one is for when I need to sleep in Central Park at night...
Thane: NO ONE comes near me with THAT baby on!
Thane: You see Ralf, I wear this sign when I'm down (sign reads: The epoch of doom is upon us) and this one when I'm mad (sign reads: Aliens have come to destroy us all)...
Thane: and this one when I'm happy (sign reads: The end is nigh).
Ralf: But you wear that one a lot?
Thane: (sign reads: The end is nigh) I'm an up beat kind of guy!
