Hey, I'm not going to be... speciesist or whatever you'd call it. If you're cute, you're cute. I mean, there might be biological stuff I don't exactly get, but that doesn't mean dates are out of the question.

You don't have to be down on yourself. But you also don't have to think I'm cute back or whatever. Just thought I'd give you a compliment.
