Poor Creature

A mother and a daughter are shopping in the mall, when the
mother eyes an expensive fur coat.  "This year," she says,
"I think that I will buy my own present instead of making
you and dad shop for me."

"But mom," says the daughter, "some poor, helpless creature
has to suffer so that you can have this coat. Don't you think
that's kind of cruel?"

"Don't worry honey," says the mother, "your father won't get
the bill for a couple of weeks."
