Piglet, I was tempted to give you the bonus point this week. Bulldogs don't like exercise much so don't generally chase after sticks, so not having or throwing a stick is a good idea. However, even making the bulldog think that he had to chase a stick would be cruel to the dog, so no point.
Average this week was 4.1 points. I managed a magnificent* 7 while the absent AussieBranch joins Deezel on a miserly 1. Deezel's poor show now puts him equal bottom with Southblue. Not many changes otherwise as few of us got correct scores and the gaps are widening. Note that one game was postponed so I'll add the scores from that when it's played.

Must all cruelty necessarily be without point?
What if there was good reason to be cruel to the Bulldog?
Back to earth with a two point bump...
Thank you Geoff as usual

Thank you Griff
If I was a cat, I might try and be cruel to the bulldog, but I'm not. As a human I realise that creatures act on instinct and the cruelty might therefore be inherent in the bulldog, so I would not judge any reason sufficient to be cruel to the creature, even if it bit my leg. Being cruel would make me a smaller person and dogs are, after all, extremely stupid. And yes, all cruelty is without point.
As Red Dwarf taught us, dogs chase sticks. Cats don't; they argue that if we wanted the stick so much, why did we throw it away in the first place? It is therefore shown that there is an order to all life, and we are at the top of it. Cruelty is therefore pointless.
