Gotta go Was Mrs. Plant (v2.0) a mop & Mrs. Plant (v1.0) a sponge, or the other way around? What if it’s Hindu? Will you first try to convert it to Christianity & then use the cross? Wouldn’t it be much easier to give it a fiver rather than make it pick up all of those dimes? ---

This is why you never see Jews in vampire movies, they usually buy it between the fifth & sixth points. ---
