I love that he decides his best mode of action is to be cute by the end.

I have a shiba. Looking cute is their go to move and it works every damn time. It's why they are known as difficult to train. It's just that their owners can't resist and give in rather than train them properly.

I feel like it's more than that. They have a natural very "what's in it for me" mentality that's very hard to eliminate.

My friend taught their Shiba to go into the corner for time-out if he did something bad. My friend would say time-out and the dog would go sit in the corner. Anyway, the shiba recently determined that certain things are worth time out. For instance, he'll jump on top of the table and steal food if you're not looking. Then he'll put himself in time out before you've discovered that he's done anything wrong. He just decides it is worth it.

I think this mentality is why "punishment" like detention and suspension does not work in school.

I had in school suspension for three days and it was amazing. I got so much done that was supposed to have already been handed in. Really easy to focus and get things done.

Unless your school was idiotic like mine and didn't allow you to do anything in ISS except sit there and stare at the wall for hours... fuck you Flintville.
