Umm, Brian, guess what.  You look very fetching in your photo. 

What do you think of the word "litter?"  I thought it meant garbage blowing around on the street.  But it's also a word for some kind of sand that cats poop in - AND, guess what, it also means a bunch of kittens when cats have babies!  Your people brought you home because you were the pick of the litter, right?  Is that why most cats NATURALLY have an attitude that they are "hot shit?"  NOT that it's a bad thing...monkeys aren't adverse to whatever might be the "pick" of the "litter."
