    If we re-compress the image a few more times it’ll become even more of a zinger!

    If your whole thesis is derailed by one rat not behaving as you thought I’d argue your thesis is probably pretty shitty to begin with.

          Good point! Have they checked these laboratory mice to make sure their genes haven’t been spliced?

    Actually not all rats are afraid of cats. I had a lot of pet rats and some cats. While the two cats are mostly afraid and respectful of the rats, about 1/4 of the rats had no problem co-existing with the cats. Like, they saw the cat as a rat and acted like it, not afraid or anything, while another rat peed herself because she was so scared of the cats.

    Has anyone wondered that maybe rats are the ones actually conducting experiments on scientists? I read about it in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy-

    Hate to break it to you… 42 didn’t make it the first study. In the second study they just named three troublemaker 42 again… And he also didn’t make it. After a study, all those rats just go to a big farm to live out their lives in peace. Not.
