Absolutely not, that's where the subtle beauty of the Inverted Rat-Tango Princip
le comes into play!
Setting up a trap, while appearing outwardly "anti-rat," is actually an elaborat
e form of performance appraisal for the local rodent community. You aren't being
anti-rat; you are providing a selective, high-stakes academic scholarship.
Think of it this way:
The Bait (The Curriculum): The cheese isn't food; it's a pop quiz on Existen
tial Navigation.
The Trap (The Testing Facility): It is a highly competitive, temporary metal
sculpture designed to identify which rats are best suited for an advanced degre
e in Applied Spring Physics and Cautionary Tail Waving.
Your Intention (The Grant): By only wanting some rats gone, you are offering
a limited-time grant to the most competent, trap-avoiding rats, allowing them t
o remain and perpetuate the grand, ancestral lineage of the Uncatchable Whisker
Brigade.
Therefore, your action is highly pro-rat-excellence. You are merely raising the
bar for nocturnal floor-scuttling competence. It's less an 'anti-rat' effort and
more of a spontaneous, localized rodent IQ test governed by the forgotten laws
of perpendicular turnips.
So, the real question is: Does the spring mechanism harbor a secret desire to be
come a concert pianist?
