Het papier is op #[nn]

Stefan Verwey's Dutch humor collection announces its punchline right on the cover: a hapless, suited businessman sits stranded on the toilet, phone in hand, with the empty paper roll mocking him from the wall — and the Dutch caption "Het papier is op" ("The paper is out") leaving nothing to the imagination. Published by De Harmonie in 2003, this is Verwey's brand of deadpan office-worker comedy at its most relatable. If you've ever faced a workplace crisis of this particular variety, you'll feel seen.
