- I am a type-A, says the priest.
- I know I am type-B, says the imam.
The rabbit looks a bit lost and finally stammers:
- I think … I think … I am a type-O

I used to have this sort of autistic pet peeve about the term " Fraction of the Cost", meant as something being cheaper. Well, 5, 9/4, etcany fraction with numerator larger than dominator doesn't fit. I'll sell it to you at "33/2 the cost". Common sense fortunately won.
