Pet doesn't obey very well. When he misbehaves I tie him to the tree outside. Let him sit there with no food and no water. He doesn't like that very much.
When Pet behaves, he gets to be in his cage. With food and water, and enough room to stretch his limbs and turn his head around.
Today Pet misbehaved, more than he ever has.
He said I speak slow. That I say things wrong. That aliens will never ever be as good as him.
Pet is now dead. Tomorrow I go back to earth to get a new one.
