An old man is sitting in a darkened room, being interrogated by two guards

Guard: “I want you to sign ze papers, old man.”

Old Man: “These papers? I can’t read them. What do they say?”

Guard: “They are merely a statement that you have not been tortured. Now sign ze papers.”

Old Man: “I can’t sign ze papers.”

Guard: “SIGN ze papers and you will be released!”

Old Man: “But I can’t, I can’t.”

Guard: “You WILL sign ze papers.”

Old Man: “It’s impossible, I cannot sign ze papers.”

Guard: “‘Impossible?’ Tell me, why is it impossible for you to sign ze papers?”

*Old man holds up his hands

Old Man: “Because you have broken my fingers.”
