I don't often upvote reposts I've seen, but I love these adorable gigantic rats
swimminboy13
Definitely needed the scale!
nortotron
This is the best kind of repost. Keep on, keeping on.

derdeeder
That's a big ass rat
duckhostage
That's how I want to spend my retirement. Eating avocados and getting pet.
frosty147
I don't get bomb suits. I wouldn't want to survive an explosion that blows off my arms/legs.
bachterman
may the tiny rat-god bless their huge souls.
DrBadTouch
I need a pouched rat in my life. I NEED DIS.
ImgurBannedMeWtf
Fuck. People. Who leave land mines. Special circles of hell hopefully await you pedos.

"Not to trigger"--this might be the first imgur post I've seen that hasn't split that infinitive. +1 for you.
Isorikk
That fucking title though +1
Canis138
Everytime I see this, the size of those rats astonishes me.
ZZhillTopper
I've seen bigger rats in Kentucky normal rats can get quite large.
fantafarta
O feel like rats generally run big though. Buddy of mine has a pet rat and it looks just as big as these if I remember correctly.
iPez
I bet they taste like hare.
Feralkyn
They are not true rats.
usernametakenisthestoryofmylife
No rat left behind!

Meanwhile my rat begs for table scraps by clinging to the side of the cage
TropicalMary
I turned away for two seconds and mine stole an entire slice of toast. I forgot that he was running around on the bed at the time.
NiteFury

TropicalMary
Best pets ever. I just wished that the lived longer...
OatmealManTheOriginal
I was repairing a ps2 controller and she ran away with the x button
TropicalMary
HAHAHAHA Did the scamper or bounce away? Mine chewed through my PS3 power cable.
Zarburu
Wow, thanks for sharing this was interesting and awesome!
heypumpkin
You can even adopt a rat and get updates on its achievements!

I think there are directions on the website I added :)

"so we cool on that bubonic plague thing now?' - rat
MimzytheBun
That was actually gerbils they think now.
Freya7
It was the fleas on the rats.
Twinklepot
Fleas are always a plague.
cousteau
It was the microbes on the fleas on the rats.
Sprixxen
Ya but the rats were really good at transporting the fleas.
Freya7
There were a lot of rats because they killed so many cats thinking they were witches familiars...
JesseJames18241
Guns don't kill people, bullets and internal bleeding kill people.
cancerriddenlung
Also external bleeding and organ failure
NinjaSpork
Let's just go straight to the source and blame it on the hole in the bottom of the sea...or maybe the little old lady that swallowed a fly
TheMinstrelKnight
I get this reference I think.

TIL rats have 25% of their life in retirement, I'll be lucky to retire.
LokiKingOfJotunheim
Start saving whatever you can afford into an indexed account. Indexed accounts never take a loss.
SignedUpForThisComment1
My comment was for fake Internet points. I'll do just fine, probably like the rat. I've been saving for 15 years
idownvoteplottwist
Do you have a reference? I can only find one document with a google search. It looks like they shave off any gains past a fixed percentage.
LokiKingOfJotunheim
Indexed accounts (typically annuities and LI) lock in at a floor of 0.75%. They can do this because they typically have a ceiling of 15%.
LokiKingOfJotunheim
I work in financial services for TransAmerica as a non-captive agent. Warren Buffet talks about them quite a bit.

idownvoteplottwist
suggested that you will never see your balance go negative with this type of account. 2/2
idownvoteplottwist
But index *funds* are a different story. You lose money when the stock market has years with negative return. The way you phrased it 1/
LokiKingOfJotunheim
That's not how indexed funds work. When the market sees negative returns, your account still gains 0.75% instead of taking a loss.

Fun Fact: Falkland Islands almost killed off their penguin population. The Brits mined it and the penguins weren't heavy enough to trigger
tyrroo
If the penguins don't trigger the mines, then how did the population get almost killed off? o.O
azazyel
Before the mines they were eaten. But there was a conflict and they mined the island and the numbers started going up
blackstone459
Watched a Ted talk on these guys a few years ago :) they're also training them to find tumors
Kazahani
And they already have teams of rats trained to detect tuberculosis.
heypumpkin
They are amazing!
abacaxi
Can't they make em run for US president?
FormalShorts
They're foreign. We have to write in Pizza Rat.
abacaxi
Oh yeah, good point. I think there is a loophole, if whereever they are from joins the US. Dutch professor wanted to run for USP that way.
FormalShorts
Find tumor, get banana and petting. I see nothing wrong here
VikingsAreNinjaPirates
Brief moment of confusion: "They buried tumors out in those fields, too?"
Retromorphic
They put the rat INSIDE the person? o.O
FormalShorts
Pump the brakes, Dr. Krieger.
Retromorphic
I always upvote Archer references
