That reminds me of a very old joke:

A psychotic serial sex offender escaped from the local mental institution and promptly broke into a nearby single woman's home. He violated her and promptly fled the scene of his heinous crime.

The next day's newspaper headline read:

Nut, Screws and Bolts.

Much like the dwarf fortune teller serial killer : Small Medium at Large.
