Jenny Nowhere, making a point about how individual incarnations of Jenny Everywhere did not possess true free will, once mocked the fact that her nemesis's love of toast was so great that “Jennies from worlds that haven’t invented agriculture yet shift[ed] across dimensions just to pick up a snack”.

Most also considered it a personal offensive to use inappropriate condiments (such as mustard) in their presence. (PROSE: Paying It Forward)
