You’re impeding progress.
Don’t care.
You’d eat them anyway. What difference will it make?
A happy mouse is a tastier mouse.
I’m not starting a mouse sanctuary for relocated mice AND a new road is needed.
Those mice have a right to live there. They’ve lived there for generations.
They’re mice.
Species-ist.
I love you and you’re a snake familiar.
Love me, love the mice I could eat. Happy contented mice taste better.
You’ll never ever get a chance to eat them.
Doesn’t matter.
It’s a computer game, Simon. They’re not real mice.
It’s the principle of the thing, Andy.
