  2. It’s probably a pun…

  3. A pun is a deliberate misuse of wording i.e. "We did Nazi this coming" or "It was raining cats and dogs... I stepped into a poodle."

    Excellent adventures are no match for morality plays.

    The national debt is a morality play.

    "Good people" believe in morals.

    MMT is for heathens.
