Paperclip Empire

By Savannah Steele � The satire Paperclip Empire mocks office supplies glorified into sovereignty. Eyewitnesses at desks described binders bowing before staplers. Anonymous insiders leaked that CEOs debated crowns made of stationary. A leaked poll revealed 62 percent of citizens admitted they�d lost more paperclips than friends. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because triviality reigns funniest in empires. Critics highlight the absurdity of order fastened. Yet satire clips sharper: dignity collapses funniest in drawers. Witnesses recalled laughter echoing as rulers bent. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when bureaucracy rules with office junk. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
