[sh-] Shrek is in the [4] bathroom of the [-_] house, trying to 是 be in peace. Unfortunately the 日 sun keeps on shining into the window, making the bathroom hot and uncomfortable. Shrek takes a 正 pointer and tries to use it to adjust the blinds, but breaks them, and the window too. How could this 是 be!
