Via genreality.
A writer died and was given the option of going to heaven or hell.
She decided to check out each place first. As the writer descended into the fiery pits, she saw row upon row of writers chained to their desks in a steaming sweatshop. As they worked, they were repeatedly whipped with thorny lashes.
“Oh my,” said the writer. “Let me see heaven now.”
A few moments later, as she ascended into heaven, she saw rows of writers, chained to their desks in a steaming sweatshop. As they worked, they, too, were whipped with thorny lashes.
“Wait a minute,” said the writer. “This is just as bad as hell!”
“Oh no, it’s not,” replied an unseen voice. “Here, your work gets published.”

I love this!
FYI, it's considered rude to display an image hosted from another person's web server because it consumes the other person's bandwidth; instead, you should copy the image to your own server and host it there. But thanks for the link!
That's a tricky one Patrick. Some people prefer the link to go directly to their website. I can easily store the image locally if you prefer
