Ignore what?
Noooooooooooooooooooooo, not the dreaded barn! That just attracts Angry Amish wanting to make modifications with their deadly saws and hammers.
Murderous Mennonites and Angry Amish; I'm moving to a safer secular neighborhood.
Please, let me get all those wonderful pastries out of there, first?
Oh, NO!!! What a terrible fate! Not macaroni salad with tuna fish again?
