Woody is wonder why if Wile E. Coyote
can afford to send away for all those mail-order Acme kits, he
can't afford a good meal.
Cliff has the answer... |
Woody, I
think you're missing the point here. It's not that Wile E.
Coyote wants to eat necessarily or that he wants to eat a
roadrunner. What he wants is to eat that particular roadrunner.
It's very existential.

Now that that is out of the way, we agree with Cliff on this
one.
