Stickmen

A man makes Blue, a stickman, to type for him. Blue does not want to type, but rather play. So Blue creates Green, another stickman, to type. But neither Blue nor Green want to type, so they both go play. While playing, Blue's initial task comes back to haunt him. Blue creates Red, which is another stickman. Red is willing to type, and as he does so, Blue and Green play.
Red notices that Blue and Green are playing while he works. This makes him mad. Red heads out to confront the two and a fight breaks out, resulting in Blue loosing his arms.
