Please, may I find one of those in my pocket? Please?
um... can someone please explain the use of "ponies" and "11", "eleven" or even "111" as a sign of extreme squeedom? i guess i'm new...
Are you sure these are the same guy. The one on top seems to have perfectly manicured fingers while the one on the bottom in the pink seems to have some SERIOUS tangles in his whiskers. Which twetally doesn't detract from his muzzlepuff but all the same.
Same ratty?! Or different rattys?!?! That is the question.
omg are you kidding? I tooootally want that in my pocket
oh, and intense squee-diddles to the homie rattles with the wee gnome-hands...
Susie -- that might just be the rodent equivalent of Bed Head.
definitly three rats - one white muzzle puff, two not, and one wrangle-whisker.
three different pockets too.
so says i phi
If you put a bunch of exclamation marks in a row sometimes you'll accidentally put the number 1 in between your marks. Thus the 1s, the eleven is just leet speak takin it to a whole new ridiculous level. It's supposed to be funny. I'm fairly sure that ponies is an alteration of pwned. Which is more leet speak stuff. See it started off owned, but the p and the o are so close to each other on the keyboard that it turned into powned.
Theo in that case let's get that last guy a hairbrush!
That is one serious manicure on dat li'l guy! All he needs is the red polish, the up-do, the heels and the fancy dress and he'll be ready for the prom! Rodents usually don't do it for me, but hafta say, this guy rocks!

iphi and Susie -- there's a discussion of OMG PON1ES!!!!1!! on the post about the newest bumper stickers that might help you. involves Pon1es, which can pwn you, but sometimes they just horse around...
as for dis pic: ratses in de pocketses is cute!! I didn't even used to like ratses and meeses, and what are you doing to me, CO????
OMG RATS1ES!!!!1!!!1!!
Looks like it's two Zuli pix (blue pocket) and one Jema (pink pocket). Equals a great way to end my workday, folks! love 'em!!!!!!!!!
Lol I think Theo got a little overwhelmed. Perhaps he's met his match!??!? Mwahahahha.
Uh, I know that cutie is in the eye of the beholder, but if I found a rat in *my* pocket, I would flip my sh!t, and not in a good way.
Love the subtle smoky color.
Speaking of pow1es. I vote that we have legit pony posts soon. Any1?
Theo I'm in love with that pic that you left. I'm leavin it on my bf's myspace right now.
Don't know if I'd want one in my pocket but, these little gray cuties are too much!
pleeeeeeeeeeeease let a precious teeny wee morsel-munching rattie be in my pocket when I look there...
plllllllllllllleeeeeeease oh please oh please.....
Ratties!
Look at those perfect fingers--and those cute little eyes!!
I want one in my pocket to pet ever so gently on it's widdle head.
Susie -- re: rodentfight2.jpg
I found the pic on IRCimages; the speech bubbles are mine.
Theo,
genius, and I'll be sure to give you credit when I repost it. ;-)
rex rats have funky whiskers...
Rats don't exactly purr, but they do brux - they grind their teeth together when they're content, and occasionally when they're stressed. It does sound a bit like purring.
The little fellow in the bottom picture obviosuly has a bit of rex blood in him, which is what makes his whiskers curly.
OMGz no way. Those are curls!?!? How freakin' adorable! Now I want one.
awwwww.....this makes me miss my ratties....too bad thay don't live longer than they do!
And when super relaxed and happy, they both brux and boggle--which is partially popping their eyeballs and and out of their sockets.
That first looks like he's just woken up from a nap and is having a nibble. Looks all warm and cozy.
Oooooh, shiny silver fur! And curly whiskers! I wants it!
Oh wait, I have 5 ratties of my own I can stuff in various pockets. *squee!*
i gotta say, popping eyeballs in and out of sockets sounds kinda weird..
dunno if *that* would be qte...
but these guyses sure are!
OK... I MUST check my pockets before doing laundry now, I won't be able to start the cycle ever again otherwise!
OK, I've always thought having a pet rat was kinda icky, but I have to admit this little guy (girl?)is awfully cute. The widdo hands!! And the widdo velvet ears! I wanna feel dose earses in my mouf. Ya' know...the velvety goodness. So sweet!
Btw, um, I looked at the C.O. Glossary and, um, this isn't there so....can someone PLEASE explain to me what PONIES!11! means?? I'm a regular and I don't know! *hanging head in shame*
Oops... I shoulda read all da posts furst. I gets it. Kinda.. *scratches head*
Darn, I'm not wearing pockets today! [pouts]
That second picture is just too sweet! Awww...
Aww! The rexy one has fuzzy ears! Hee!
I think the use of "OMG Ponies!!!" was popularized on April Fools Day, when Slashdot changed their front page to pink and linked to Cute Overload and had various childishly cute phrases. Ponies of course, are an object of desire for 7 year old girls everywhere.
What's up with rattie in pic #3's whiskas? I've never seen curly whiskas or furry rat ears. It's like this rat comes with built-in earmuffs!
I'm jumping too many bridges on this one but, I wonder if any curly-whiskered Rex Rat owners name their ratties, "Shirley Templeton".
Ow, that hurt me.
Shirley Templeton! Ha!
Love the teeny paws and teeny claws and dreamy expression!
"...Ponies of course, are an object of desire for 7 year old girls everywhere."
Errata, I'm a few times 7, and I STILL want a pony. It's my cats who want a rattie, but they're getting a new sister, or more if my resistance is low. Rescued animals shouldn't have to be re-rescued, but this time it's nobody's fault. I'm off to donate & help these: http://www.jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/011707/neR_7283609.shtml
Good for you, Jesserakitty! I'm sure the sister or more that your kitties get will have a wonderful home! Yay for you!
I'd say it's time to put "rurrr" (rat purring) into the CO Glossary.
