Stop me if you've heard this one...

” O.k. so a vampire , a werewolf , and a mummy walk into a bar.”

“This is exactly what I’m talking about!That is so not p.c.! I mean why is he the monster? He didn’t ask to be created! Clearly the god complex having mad scientist who brought him to life is the monster! All he wanted was friendship!”
