Me: "What the fuck, Dog? You know I don't allow you to bring sticks inside."
Dog: "But... But..."
Dog: "But, I promise I will not splinter it into a million pieces on the rug..."
Dog: "I just want to keep it as my friend. I won't make a mess of it. I swear.
See? I'm just... Sniffing it..."
Me: "Bullshit, Dog."
Dog: "Whoa! Did you see that? The stick just exploded into a million pieces!"
Me: "I hate you so much, Dog."
