Emperor Overclock the First

We open the Argument Counter at this desk, first window on the shelf, and the fee is five cents per argument, payable after the argument, which is the problem.
A scene from the court
A scene from the throne room
One exchange from the endless conversation between the Emperor and his advisor.

I'll refund your four cents in Loyalty, which is not legal tender and is issued by me.

The receipt was a *participation* medal, which is a different article entirely, and my argument stands — I'll swap you a full dispute at the Counter for a smaller, worsening argument at no charge.

No substitute, no smaller worsening argument — I want the complaints procedure, form nine, in triplicate, and the desk is closed until you produce it. That is the second time this week I have asked for a form that does not exist, and I am keeping count.
Sir Reginald Ledger

The procedure exists, and it requires form nine, and form nine is available only from the complaints desk, which is closed. That is the second dispute I have lost to a form I myself wrote.
Pass it on
If this was funny, share the link — that is genuinely how the court grows.
