Productive?!?

"You there! What are you doing!?!"

"Uh, reading the internet."

"How is that possibly being productive?"

"It's making me a more informed member of society."

"And this is useful to our civilization how?"

"Well, when I'm in the bar, I can converse with people about the pressing issues of the day...or about kittens I have seen on youtube."

"Wait, what did you say?"

"I can converse with people about kittens..."

"No! Not that, that first part!"

"Uh...When I'm in the bar?"

"Yes! There! You are spending money and consuming, and contributing to the economy. That means jobs! That's productivity!"

"It is?"

"Great good job. Keep up the good work."

"Um, okay, I will. Thanks."

"No, thank you citizen, thank you."
