You're a plant, an inanimate object..wtf?

In the Steven Spielberg movie E.T., why is the alien brown? No reason. In Love Story, why do the two characters fall madly in love with each other? No reason. In Oliver Stone’s JFK, why is the president suddenly assassinated by some stranger? No reason. In the excellent Chainsaw Massacre, by Tobe Hooper, why don’t we ever see the characters go the the bathroom, or wash their hands, like people do in real life? Absolutely no reason. Worse - in The Pianist, by Polanski, how come this guy has to hide and live like a bum, when he plays the piano so well? Once again, the answer is - no reason. I could go on for hours with more examples. The list is endless.

That is terrible evidence! And a terrible dictionary.

The first definition of animate covers a plant - a plant possesses life and is alive.
If you had just posted the definition of inanimate then you would have been better off.

There is a Simpson's quote for every situation in life.

That's exactly what he meant. Plants aren't supposed to talk. They're not supposed to eat either, unless they're Venus Fly-Traps.

I'm the kind of guy, when I move - watch my smoke. But I'm gonna need some good clothes though.
