You're telling me nobody wants to hire the guy who broke the laws of reality and created a cardboard dimension? Damn, standards are getting way to high.

There was a story like this one made into a short horror movie on KZbin a few years ago. The guy made a carboard maze for his cats, ended up inside of it, and it was like a living creature that was trying to eat him. Like being in somethings throat. Maybe you've seen that?
