2. Yay!

[Warpy]

3. I guess women were alllowed to be a lot gutsier 800 years ago

and Mary hadn't yet been reduced to the demure, decorative, utterly passive receptacle she is today.

[Bayard]

4. And she looks pretty happy about doing it!

Is that a dead chicken the devil is holding?

[Nitram]

5. No, that's a rubber chicken. The Devil is a renowned prankster.

[W Mousie]

11. Yeah! Is that the Devil, or just the court jester? n/t

[Nitram]

17. There were no court jesters around when Mary was walking the Earth.

Jesters are a medieval thing. That's undoubtedly the Devil.
