we're ignoring key aspects of this story

1. shakes keeps a hockey stick bedside as a safety tool
2. he pulled a hamstring
3. he shrieked like woman

this is the peak human form

all true except I would say the shriek was more like a little girl than a full grown adult woman. Hammy feeling a little better today, will test it at hockey this afternoon. The old wooden hockey stick is a great bedside weapon.


Also at the hotel later I had a dream that there was a rat loose in our hotel room. So I think we can add PTSD to my list of complaints.

I just looked it up:

Amazon sells these things for $15.00??? :lol: :lol: :lol: I used to buy them in cases of 720 and I'm sure they cost less than a buck each. And that was for American made stuff. I'm sure the one Amazon has is Chinese.


interesting...they fucking work tho!

last night around 11:30 went to bed and started hearing some noises in the bedroom. Saw a rat. Grabbed my trusty bedside wooden Sherwood hockey stick and after about a 20 minute fight I finally killed the rat. Tweaked my hamstring in the process and also lost my voice from screaming like a little girl every time I would take a swing at it.


Packed up our shit and checked into a Hawthorne Suites off Old Orchard.



Been planning to move to the suburbs, but have been taking my time with that. not anymore, gonna put my place on the market yesterday.



How do you think Socrates felt when you struck him?

So basically I just have to live in a house that may or may not be infested with rats.

Now if you excuse me I'm going to kill myself.


Don't be so dramatic. We can work something out.

I love how these type of mocking mults have the perfect avatar right from the get-go.

I know bigfan had a few funny Wrigleyville rat threads, but this is the first that popped up in a search: :lol:

That's how we got mice three winters in a row. We sealed up everything elsewhere, but didn't bother with the gap under the door. The one good exterminator suggested that we try to fix it and see what happens, and after that, we've had nothing.

It was pretty awful.

We had a rat issue at two homes where I lived in the past, both well out into the country. A rat can gnaw a hole in concrete block, and an adult can fit through a hole the size of a quarter- that's why the entry point can be so hard to determine; At one old farmhouse, they were in the walls, and got so strong that we had to screw the trap to the floor since he was taking the bait, the trap would trip on him and he'd back into his hole in the wall, pulling the trap off his neck. Soldering a finish nail to the trap loop helped, too.

A former coworker had a daughter that was having nightmares about a monster in her closet. She kept it up long enough that he did the "see here, there's nothing in there" routine one night...and opened the door onto a momma possum and babies. She had gnawed a hole up through the floor of their double-wide and gave birth in the kid's closet. Dad was former active Army, the spotter for the long-range sniper, trained to live in the wilderness eating bugs and stuff. He grabbed the possum and killed it right then and there with his bare hands. Kinda tinted his daughter going forward.

C'mon Shakes, man up! Slap that thing through the five hole!!

Shouldn't it have been "we're out of spray butter?"

No shame in screaming like a bitch when confronted with a vermin in your humble abode.

Coming up on 9 years ago, when we first had a mouse in the house, I completely lost my shit, just like you see in the cartoons - jumped up on a chair and screamed like a fucking little bitch.

Wouldn't be able to even fathom being confronted with a full-grown fucking alley rat!

Holy shit and a half.

BTW, I am sure Shakes knows, but at this time there does not appear to be any statutory duty to disclose this item:

Curious as to what type a strike the coup de grâce was - was it a chopping motion, or more of a slapshot into the wall?

Also, did ratguts splay out all over the room you were battling in?
