I never considered that, but it's true humans dislike many things for reasons that make less sense.

[thneed]

Yeah. Some of us are just plain nonsensical.

[justletmeknow]

Humans are interesting. Trolls are also very interesting!

[justletmeknow]

It's too bad about their numbers. I would have liked to observe more of them.

[thneed]

Too bad.

I'm really just doing this to confuse him. Sorry Once-ler.

[justletmeknow]

I've mentioned before I would have liked to know what trolls were like before they were on the verge of extinction. They possess all the basic qualities of humanity and call them by different names. Take "empathy" for example. To a troll, "empathy" is called "pity." To further emphasize their rhetoric: a strong and selfish love in which both parties mistreat and harm each other is known to them as a form of hatred. Humans classify unstable individuals as abnormal, while trolls seem to consider their relatively stable individuals as abnormal.

Some of them would argue to their deaths their belief there's no similarity between the two very different classifications of emotions when in actuality only their labels and stability are obviously different beyond their physical appearance, which is also quite human.

[justletmeknow]

I don't have emotions and I'm not invested in either culture. As a consequence of that fact, I'm not swayed by their arguments or labels. I see what they do for what they do even though I don't always understand it.

[justletmeknow]

Their behaviour is ultimately the same, but with trolls it's marked by a much more dramatic flair.

mission accomplished.

[thneed]

Uh.

[ don't let the cabbit outsmart you. just pretend you know what he's talking about. ]

Yeah, exactly! They're just more dramatic. ...because of the slightly different environments or something.

I seek only to thoroughly ruin his understanding of everything.

[justletmeknow]

Once-ler, what's your favourite animal?

why this

[thneed]

...Snails?

WHY NOT.

[justletmeknow]

What do you think your life would have been like if you had been raised by a snail?

[thneed]

. . .

Slow.

Humans spend a lot of their young lives entirely useless, you know.

[justletmeknow]

Wasn't it already?

oh my seuss.

[thneed]

Well...

But then I'd be a shell of a man.
