[TOMT][BOOK][CLASSIC] That book everyone read in middle school
It's a story about two people who are pretty close, and one of them has down syndrome or something. At the end, one of them says something like "think of the rabbits, b-word" and then shoots him in the back of the head. I remember that it was a mercy killing because some bad people were after them, or something?
Kinda wanna go back to it and read an analysis of it because surely he didn't have to shoot him, right?
It's a classical book that's pretty old, I wanna say 1940s or something? Total guess tho
Of mice and men. The quote does not include b-word

I cannot think or comprehend of anything more cucked than planting a tree. Honestly, think about it rationally. You are planting, watering, trimming, and fertilizing a tree for at least 18 years solely so it can go and provide shade to another man. All the hard work you put into your towering tree - making sure it got sunlight, staking it so it didn't fall over, replanting it as it got bigger, making sure to use the safest fertilizers and pesticides, pruning it every spring. All of it has one simple result: its shade is more enjoyable for the men who under this tree will eventually sit.
Grew the perfect tree? Great. Who benefits? If you're lucky, a random man who had nothing to do with the way it grew, who rests under it. He gets to sit under its swaying boughs every night. He gets the benefits of its thick canopy that came from the way you pruned it.
As an old man who planted a tree, you are LITERALLY dedicating at least 20 years of your life simply to grow a tree for another man to enjoy. It is the ULTIMATE AND FINAL cuck. Think about it logically.
