The monastery with a vow of silence

There was a remote monastery, where seekers would come to learn about pupspace and the nature of Dog.

Every seven years, pups were allowed to go to the master's office and say exactly two human words.

One new pup acted restless, and on his first chance he went to the master and said, "Bed.. hard!"

The master nodded and the pup left the room.

Seven years later, that pup was at the door again at dawn, and he rushed into the office and said, "Food sucks!"

The master nodded and smiled encouragingly.

After 21 years at the monastery, that pup waited outside the master's office and blurted out, "I quit!"

The master nodded and smiled and said, "Well, I can't say that I'm surprised - all you ever do is complain."
