the connotations are as Faldage implied always derogatory.
Huh? I did what?
"What do Scotsmen wear underneath their kilts?"
No, no. The question is, "What is worn under the kilt?"
The answer is, "Nothing is worn under the kilt; it's all in perfect working order."

I've always taken this to be another example of (what did we decide was the reverse of anthropomorphization)
Isn't comparing a person to an animal derogatory in your book, Faldage? oh, god, this is a slam dunk - you owe me one!

Mav, wise old owl that he is (and clever as a fox, too, I might add), shows us that he is as quick as a bunny rabbit and has the memory of an elephant as he effectively uses my own words against me.

<<as Faldage implied
Whether he did or no, I heard you loud and clear
***
The human condition per belM and Mav:
Man became man when he learned to stand on his hind legs and not need the use of the forelegs* for balance. So to make a man you had to stand up.--belM
*"not need" to say "posesses but does not need"
only a less cerebrally advanced form of life has hind legs.--mav
Ergo: to become human is to be[come] less than human

On mules we find two legs behind And two we find before. We stand behind before we find What the two behind be for. If you're behind the two behind. You'll find what these be for, So stand before the two behind, And behind the two before.
alternatively, in the words of Ogden Nash: In the world of mules, There are no rules.
