How about:
A mother snake wanted to clean out the snake pit. She asked the children (snakes) to go outside. They, instead, remained in the pit and continually hissed.
Frustrated, the mother snake instructed the children to go next door to Mrs. Potts. They left.
A few minutes later the children returned. When questioned by the mother they told her that Mrs. Potts sent them away because she did not like all the hissing.
Indignant, the mother shouted, "How dare she. I can remember when Mrs. Potts didn't have a pit to hiss in!"
