They're kinda like a cross between a rat and a barn owl: a giant rat with a barn owl's eyes. Part monkey also: opposable thumbs fore and aft.
You forgot the prehensile tail. I read that they haven't changed in 40 million years. They're very cool. They have hot pink feet and tails, black leathery ears and HUGE FANGS.

True, and they exhale deadly HCl gas, and they can jump 30 feet straight up, and they can open beer cans with their little hands, and they understand the concept of the US postal service and often mail themselves around the country.

RIP, Raul.

If i was three years older i'd be three years behind my classmates

This is not a very good way to go about things.

You shouldn't say you are ahead of everyone. I've experienced getting ahead and then later noticing I've left a lot behind.

In the end, don't get ahead of yourself.

Note: I'm still moving my way up, but I'm doing it with some new perspective.

That's right, they're marsupial. Very cool animals.

RIP, Raul.
Thank you, I really miss him. :cry:

I just noticed the one on the far right in the front row is lifting his rear leg up like he's peeing.

Yeah, that's why it's called "Two truths and a lie". (you were the lie)

Fair enough, I'm used to that sort of thing by now anyway.

What does that make their closest living relatives? Are rats marsupials? And what's so special about the tail? It's kind of like a rat's tail.

1. I was house broken by a tiny, cute mouse which I killed with a snow shovel
2. I was house broken by a tiny, cute mouse which became adopted (creatively named "Mouse")
3. I was house broken by a tiny, cute mouse that got itself into a bottle of olive oil and pickled for days before being discovered ("Dear, do you remember that you thought the vegan salad tasted a little bacon-like? Well, guess what, there was a reason for it.")

Rats are rodents. Possums can wrap their tails around tree branches and it helps them hang on. It's kinda like having a fifth limb.

I already knew zooby was a virgin. :rolleyes: Okay, you guys can continue now. Bah, Smurf! You don't listen very well.

I've had 'unclean thoughts' about Shakespeare.

I've never (lustfully) kissed another female.

When I was little kid, I 'prayed' to Satan, trying to convince him to come back to the 'good' side.
