Meanness is in my genetic code. It’s in the nature of chimps to throw poo at offensive persons.
If you can evaluate who is mean in this scenario, then you will know who’s truly mean and why.
A restaurateur serves various meals to his patrons. On the surface, most of his food seems edible, but unknown to most of his patrons he often laces the fare with batshit. Some of the patrons eat this food, without complaint, seemingly unaware of the special ingredient; others murmur about it but don’t really complain.
A chimp comes into the restaurant, and the maitre dee serves her a meal laced with the special ingredient. The chimp has a superior olfactory nervous system and immediately recognizes the special ingredient and throws the laced food at the restaurateur.
A patron in the restaurant asks the chimp why she is so mean.
The chimp says, “I throw batshit-laced food at one person--the same person who serves it to hundreds. Who is mean?”
