Katy: "I've always wanted to be Amish. But only for a little while."
    Me: "We should become Amish. We could build a little hut out on the quad, raise cattle and chase chickens."
      Katy: "Hey, I've got the chickens!"
        Me: "We could cut off the chickens' heads and stack them in a pyramid right in front of the worship ministry building, just like the Assyrians!"
          Katy: "Oh, I'm sure that would go over well."
            Me: "And if anyone protested, we'd skin them alive and hang them on the light-poles. We'd light their bodies and they would light up the campus at night. Just like the Romans!"

                  Katy: "You know, little Amish children. Pronounced 'Ahm-lets'."
                    Me: "And we could make them a sacrifice to the Ammonite god Molech by burning them alive."
                      Katy: "Ummm... That was a little too far."
                        Me: "Yeah. I actually feel bad."
