The Man With No Mug (Part IV)

Refer to Part I, Part II, & Part III

Mr Mug-less looked in shock at the shattered mug. He couldn't believe that the object that had been his obsession and fear for so long was destroyed just like that. He realized that the mug was not as demonic as he thought and that he was living in unrational fear. He went out for a walk to calm his shaken mind.
As he walked, he suddenly saw his old friend, the friend that told him to get the mug in the first place. His old friend was sitting by the street, a crazed look in his eyes. Mr Mug-less went up to him and told him what had happened, and also of his epiphany. Mr Mug-less suddenly had an idea. He invited his friend to stay with him. At first he didn't want to but after Mr Mug-less told him that many Flex programmers had lost their jobs he felt much better about it. Then they went out to buy mugs for each other. After a few years, they had collected so many mugs that there was no more space to store them in the house. For fear of increasing the temperature of global warming and adding a hole to the ozone layer due to the vast amount of heat generated by the crowding of mugs they thought of how they could solve this problem. They then decided to open Mug-less' Mug Emporium and made millions on the sales of mugs.
