Batman- "Wally, what's the 'i' before the 'e' rule?"
Wally- "Um...'I' before 'e' always."
Batman- "What are you, an idiot, Wally?"
Wally- "Apparently."
Batman- "No, Wally, it's: 'i' before 'e' except after 'c' and when sounding like 'a' as in neighbour and weigh and on weekends and holidays and all throughout May and you'll always be wrong no matter what you say!"
Wally- "That's a hard rule."
Batman- "Wally, how do you make a word a plural?"
Wally- "You put a 's'...put a 's' at the end of it."
Batman- "When?"
Wally- "On weekends and holidays."
Batman- "No, Wally. Let me show you. Robin, what's the plural for ox?"
Robin- "Oxen. The farmer used his oxen."
Batman- "Wally?"
Wally- "What?"
Batman- "Wally, what's the plural for box?"
Wally- "Boxen. I bought two boxen of doughnuts."
Batman- "No, Wally, no. Let's try another one. Robin, what's the plural for goose?"
Robin- "Geese. I saw a flock of geese."
Batman- "Wally?"
Wally- "Wha-a-at?"
Batman- "What's the plural for moose?"
Wally- "Moosen! I saw a flock of MOOSEN! There were many of 'em. Many much moosen. Out in the woods...in the wood-es...in the woodsen. The meese want the food in the woodesen...
