Does anyone actually like rats?
There’s little to be said for rats, in my opinion, and, without wasps, would be the worst animal of all.
As it is, they certainly claim the prize of worst mammal.
I once had the misfortune of discovering a rat which had got itself trapped in a dustbin and was trying to jump out (it couldn’t) and then the obvious cunundrum of what to do with this beast.
Don’t ask.
These rodents are in the Shitopedia now, where they should stay. 5 stars for irritation from me.

Unnerving, unnecessary and easily broken. Why would anyone want to clutter up their garden with these talismen of evil? Gnomes are a tradition of sorts, but their man-made ugliness always detracts from what could be a nice garden. Not only that, but they’re way below eye-level and seem to smash upon impact, leading to awkwardness on top of being an abhorration in the first place.
The only way to truly ruin a day is to have to deal with an irate customer or hair-splitting client. In one weekend job I had an indignant customer who complained because the assistants didn’t know how to give a refund in pounds to a customer who bought an item in France – before the sale – and would like another item in exchange, that is only available in a different store so please could you order it for me and I’ll pay the difference. !!
Finally, I moved up a bit in the world and had to start having to deal with “stakeholders” – a term I objected to out of hand. It goes in the same hellish category as “blue-sky thinking”, “top-down structuring” and “putting speech marks around everything”. Stakeholders are people who like to get in the way of you doing your job. They nit-pick and have an opinion and organise useless meetings until you start up your own company just so you don’t have to consult them ever again. Thank God for that.
“1xtra, 1xtra, News, News, 1xtra News”. Anyone who listens to the radio all day will understand what I mean when I say radio jingles suck. They repeat the title, or parts of the title several thousand times in different voices as though we don’t get the point.
