“I had it kind of rough as a kid so I deserve to thoughtlessly gorge myself at the imperial blood feast without being reminded of what it is I’m eating.”

That’s cool man, I’m sure all the other kids growing up in small villages will understand and forgive your supporting their brutal extermination. They’d probably look up at you with stars in their eyes and think “Wow, he came from a small village too, and if I work really hard and believe in myself, that could be me plugging my ears and justifying the ultimate crime one day!”

Inspiring stuff.
