6. I hate it when magic spirits eat the moon.

Give it back, you supernatural bastards!

7. Pardon me...

I need to get my beads and rattles out to protect from the evul spirits....:D

22. Superstitious nonsense....everyone with even a bit of education knows that if

...you want to protect yourself from evul spirits, you simply bundle up a lock of hair from virgin with the bark of oak tree sprinkled with rabbit dung (although, mouse dung is a substitute, though many consider it less effective) in the cured skin of a frog that was killed with a brass knife and hang the container on your bedpost.
