Two lazy people

Once upon a time there lived two lazy people. And they were so lazy that even if the world burned, they would not move. One wise man decided to teach them a lesson. He took it and set fire to the barn of one of the lazy people.

The flame flared up and it became hot. Then one lazy person said in a weak voice:

- I'm burning!

And the other lazy man turned on his side and said quietly:

- Neighbor, please shout for me too: “I’m burning!”
