苦艾

苦 = 艹 + 古 : Karl Koala decided to repent for his sins and retreated into a cloister inside the space station. There he leads a very simple life full of hardship, e.g. he gave up on eucalyptus and just eats very bitter artificial lawn.

艾 = 乂 + 艹 : Albert Einstein (Ø) cut himself, so he wanted to treat his wound with wormwood (艾) and mugwort (艾) in the airplane's bathroom (ai4). He finds that he accidentally used artificial lawn (艹) instead, and much worse, it has been used by someone else before. Quickly he uses a pair of pliers (乂) to draw out the artificial lawn again to stop (艾) getting aids (艾).
