* The closer one looks at a coastline, the longer it gets.

Bored Colleague: Cedric, you're mapping the coast. Shut up or just tell me what happened.

2.
Dude 1: So, have you thought about what I said last night?

Dude 2: Yeah, you spent 3 hours mapping the coast and I nearly died of boredom. I'm not getting high with you again.
