  1. I used to bite my puppy ears becouse of his cuteness, eventually I stop doing it becouse he used to cry and I felt gulty. But damn it was so hard to restrain myself!

  2. I don't think I have particularly negative reactions to cuteness. For instance, a baby chick once fell asleep in my hands, and I was rendered incapable of doing anything as my soul left my body and I was transported to a dimension of pure happiness.
