Juan dies and goes to hell. There he finds that there is a different hell for each country. He goes first to the American hell and asks the receptionist.

Juan: “What do you have here?”

Receptionist: “First we will put you in an electric chair for an hour. Then we will lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then the punisher will come and whip you for the rest of the day.”

So, hastily he goes to the next hells (UK, Germany, Canada, Singapore, Taiwan, etc.) and he finds that all are more or less the same as the American hell.

On his way to Filipino hell, he notices that there is a very long line of people waiting to get in. Even the foreigners are also queuing. Amazed he asks the receptionist.

Juan: “What do they do here?”

Receptionist: “First we will put you in an electric chair for an hour. Then we will lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then the punisher will come and whip you for the rest of the day.”

Juan: “That is exactly the same as all the other hells – why are there so many people waiting to get in?”

Receptionist: “Because there is always a brownout, so the electric chair does not work. Somebody stole all the nails to sell it “por kilo”. And the punisher who is a former public official comes, punches his time-card, shakes hands with all the people waiting there and then goes back home.”
