:) This isn't sadism, it's a feature of your terminal and aptitude. You probably can use the mouse to open menus etc, just like in a regular GUI application. Vim and mc can behave that way, too, and there are probably some people who like that behaviour. The way to switch it off probably depends on your terminal.
