Brother Baku entered the 'Monastery of Silence' and the Head Friar said, "Welcome Brother, this is a silent monastery. You are welcome here as long as you like, but you may not speak until I direct you to do so."

Brother Baku lived in the monastery for 5 years before the Head Friar said to him: "Brother Baku, you have been here 5 years now, you may speak two words."

Brother Baku said, "Hard Bed."

"I'm sorry to hear that," the Head Friar said. "We will get you a better bed."

After another 5 years, Brother Baku was called by the Head Friar. "You may say another two words Brother Baku."  

"Cold food," said Brother Baku, and the Head Friar assured him that the food would be better in the future.

On his 15th anniversary at the monastery, the Head Friar summoned Brother Baku to hear his allowed two words. 

"I quit," said Brother Baku. 

"It is probably best," said the Head Friar. "You've done nothing but complain since you've been here."
