My friends and I used to make mods for the video game Diablo a lot. We would have get togethers where we would design these crazy, outlandish concepts. I really enjoyed doing this until one day, we were at the story and my friend and I saw this stuffed animal of a sleeping puppy that vibrates to give off the illusion that it was actually sleeping. When we got home that evening, my friend said,

"I know! We could put that sleeping puppy from the store in that game as a fightable mob!".

Right I was, I was disgusted and upset at his suggestion. He was literally suggesting we make a video game mod that allows our characters to kill a sleeping puppy? I turned down that idea instantly and while we continued to make mods together, I honestly haven't felt the same about him since. All of the monsters we added to the game were generally evil/scary things such as demons, skeletons, zombies, vampires, goblins, ogres, etc. They were all things that would make perfect sense for a virtual character to kill. Why would he even think about adding an adorable defenseless puppy to the game? Using a video game to kill a baby animal in it's sleep for no reason is just wrong.
