Hot dog: does not have feelers, therefore, does not have feelings. Clearly, the hot dog is a lower life form.
"How undignified!" "Yes, I quite agree." "I would never have gotten into this mess if I had just listened to my mother!" "Too bad. I had plans. I was going to see the world!"
I have a hot dog for a pet, The only kind my folks would let Me get. He does smell sort of bad And yet, He absolutely never gets The sofa wet. We have a butcher for a vet, The strangest vet you ever met. Guess we're the weirdest family yet, To have a hot dog for a pet.
