Miss Piggy
If I give an orange to my friend,
I say to him, "I give you this orange."
If a lawyer does it, he says it this way:
"Know all men by these presents that I hereby give, grant, bargain,
sell, release, convey, transfer, and quitclaim all my right, title,
interest, benefit, and use whatever in, of, and concerning this
chattel, otherwise known as an orange, or citrus orantium, together
with all the appurtenances thereto of skin, pulp, pip, rind, seeds,
and juice, to have and to hold the said orange together with its
skin, pulp, pip, rind, seeds, and juice, for his own use and behoof,
to himself and his heirs in fee simple forever, free from all liens,
encumbrances, easements, limitations, restraints, or conditions
whatsoever, any and all prior deeds, transfers or other documents
whatsoever, now or anywhere made to the contrary notwithstanding,
with full power to bite, cut, suck, or otherwise eat the said
orange or to give away the same with or without its skin, pulp, pip,
rind, seeds, or juice."
