You don't need that, when winter comes the gorillas will just freeze to death.
Of course, that's what everyone says, but do we really want to base the fate of the world on that assumption?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Doormat? For half of it, Job is calling God a callous bully. And complaining that he'd love to argue his case to God, if only God would take his calls.
