After finding a miner's hat in a nearby dumpster, you (obviously) decide to take up the absolutely fantastic profession of coal mining (as any sane person would do). Surely, nothing could possibly go wrong! 

Yeah, there might be deadly clouds of coal dust in the air. And sure, your doctor may or may not have said it'll "ruin your lungs" and that "your life-span will almost certainly decline". But it'll be worth it for all that free power! And besides, what do they know? You don't even have lungs!

...you don't have lungs, right?

right???????????????????????
