isPlainObject({ foo: 'bar' });            // true
isPlainObject(Object.create(null));       // true
isPlainObject(Object.create({}));         // true

isPlainObject();                          // false
isPlainObject(null);                      // false
isPlainObject([]);                        // false
isPlainObject(new Date());                // false
isPlainObject(/foo/);                     // false
