    Me as a kid, having just learned english, listening to Janis Joplin: “What the fuck is a mercy dispense!?”

      When you pray for the lord to have mercy, they have to dispense it somehow. That part made sense to me as a kid.

      However why would God have to buy one? And from whom? Who manufactures these mercy dispensers for God? Why wouldn’t God just make them into existence?

      When I learned that it was Mercedes Benz I came to understand that even God needs to abide by trademark law.
