That little girl walked almost a full hour to get to the store to buy a loaf of bread, a container of milk, and a stick of butter. Someone needs to call CPS. The proof:

If she was in a well stocked latter-day saint household her Mom would have sent the child to the cellar downstairs, got some frozen butter out, grabbed some powdered milk and some wheat from the dried food storage so she could grind it into flour.  After grinding the wheat she would have made some home made bread.

And not seeing the thing from Family Guy just means you're going to heaven.

The cultural references in Family Guy are a constant source of amazement to me:

I wonder how many people "got" this? (I only did because my daughter happened to pick up a copy of the original book in a church rummage sale. It's actually no less cruel and silly than the Family Guy parody!)

1972, when a child could actually go outside without the fear of a bunch of sick demented monsters attacking them. Children used to be considered untouchable and society would protect them. How far we have fallen. 😞
