From the wonderfully zany world of IM conversations…

Prairie: (okay, I shouldn’t think this is funny, but it’s cracking me up): Studies find rats can get hooked on drugs
Prairie: they fed crack to rats

Me: :laughs Prairie: what did they think would happen? Me: it’s a little hard to picture a rat with a monkey on its back… Prairie: giggles Prairie: that’s part of what I think it funny about it Me: crackrats Prairie: laughs! Prairie: “Until now, scientists have been able to prove that rats will take drugs, even eagerly, but not that they’re actually addicted.” Prairie: that sentence keeps giving me giggles Prairie: and how are the rats getting the drugs? Prairie: the conservative, lovely scientists are pushing them Me: I liked this one - Me: ” In the French study, rats poked their pointy noses through holes in their cages to trigger injections of cocaine.” Me: I think it’s the “pointy” adjective that does it for me Prairie: giggles Me: apparently, the rats with stumpy, blunted noses were less susceptible? Prairie: haha—no, but they couldn’t get their noses through the bars to get the drugs Me: or, are they contrasting that to poking their pointy tails through? Me: or other pointy bits? Me: (kinkycrackrats) Prairie: laughs even harder Prairie: (and EEEW!) Me: :laughs
