Does This Job Come With Life Insurance?


He's probably fervently praying that the soldier at the other end isn't what's known in local military parlance as a "bobo" shooter - someone who can't hit the target to save his life. Looks like this was photographed in China. I suppose with a population of billions, they could afford to use a human being to prop up a target.

This reminds me of the "Little List" song in "The Mikado", which lists groups of people who would not be missed by society as a whole. Very funny in that context but perhaps not so funny in this.
