Love, Animals, Family and Death: Sorry Mr Nibbles

Sorry Mr Nibbles

By JustMyLuck - 06/09/2009 01:31 - United States

Today, I was at my boyfriend's house, meeting his family for the first time. We were all standing in the kitchen when suddenly a small white and brown mouse ran by. Out of natural instinct, I stomped on it. Turns out, it was his little sister's pet mouse that had gotten out of its cage earlier. FML

Today, I was laying in bed when my sister came running in, scared. I took my bat and went into the kitchen where the suspicious noise was coming from. It was a rat, right in the middle of the floor. I jumped on the counter and shrieked, just as my girlfriend walked in, who then actually dealt with it. FML

Today, my pet mouse demonstrated that he has bigger balls than my boyfriend, by running across the dinner table and eating off his plate, all while he jumped out of his chair, screaming like a girl. FML

Today, I accidentally left my sister's hamster's cage open and it escaped. My dad recently put mouse traps down. Guess where I found her. FML

Today, I was sitting on my couch when I felt something weird underneath me. I got up, thinking I'd sat on my phone or something. Wrong. I'd sat on a live mouse. FML

Dinner time

By JJ84 - 31/07/2024 12:00 - Ireland - Dublin

Today, I was having a romantic dinner at home with my girlfriend. Everything was perfect—candles, wine, the whole shebang. As we sat down, I felt something moving under the table. I thought it was her playing footsie. Nope, it was our cat with a very live, very tetchy mouse he'd just caught. Cue the screaming and wine spilling everywhere. FML

Today, my sister brought her class hamster home from school. Somehow it escaped from its cage, and ran into my room. My boyfriend, thinking it was a mouse, stomped on it. I'm stuck cleaning hamster guts from my carpet, and have to explain to a kindergarten class what happened to their pet. FML

Today, I woke up at 6 a.m. and went into the kitchen, where I saw a mouse in front of the fridge. Petrified, I stood in the doorway shooing it for a few minutes. My husband then walked into the kitchen, picked up the "mouse", and threw it in the bin. It was a used tea bag. FML

Today, I came home to find a mouse in the garage. Frantic, I killed it. My 7-year-old son came home from soccer, and started crying because he couldn't find the class pet, Mr. Whiskers. I killed my son's class pet. FML

Today, I set up a mouse trap to kill the rodent plaguing my kitchen. While lying in bed, I heard an unmistakable snap, and ran to see what I'd caught. The mouse trap was missing. I now have a large, angry, and possibly dying animal running around my house. FML

Today I opened the door for my cat and he brought in a rat with him. Now the rat is hiding in my house. FML

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?! Why the hell would you ever step on a mouse? It's not a bug! You are sick and absolutely deserve it.

Who the ****'s first reflex when seeing a mouse would be to STOMP ON IT?

YDI for killing a harmless little animal "instinctively" WTF??

Natural instinct? I understand, it's like my natural instinct to run over people on sidewalks.

Reflex can't count for a natural instinct or natural reaction at all? Rather than auto-slapping someone with a number of bogus sweeping generalizations, it wouldn't hurt your credibility to think a little more before speaking up, even if it is a YDI (which it most certainly is). Besides that, had it been a real pest they might have actually thanked her. Merely tossing rodents out isn't going to stop them from finding their way back in. It's especially a problem if you can't find out how or where they got inside in the first place. Real life dictates as what needs must, even if there are definitely better ways of catching and killing vermin than squashing them (although less expedient, at least they're less messy). So, plus some points for effort but minus several for style, you're getting a YDI despite the fact that the residents should've warned you about the critter when you came in (assuming they already knew about little Runaway Ralph there). Even if it does turn out to be partially their fault, helping pay for some sort of replacement probably wouldn't hurt either.

Why the **** does she have a mouse? I'm glad you killed it. And number 212, why the **** would someone BUY a mouse? do they even sell them anywhere?

Just because you don't like mice doesn't mean they're not fun pets. I had 2 =) They are very cute. They were actually in the pet shop as feeder mice for large snakes but we saved them. I would say why would anybody want a snake for a pet! I'm not afraid of them, I just don't think they'd be much fun, but then again some people love them so whatever floats your boat. OP: FYL and YDI. They should have told you it was loose when you got there so this wouldn't have happend. But even if they did, if it really is your "natural instinct" you would have stepped on it anyway, so YDI.

Wowww you sound brilliant. :/ Way to shove your opinion onto other people. You don't like the idea of having a mouse as a pet, therefore anyone else's pet mouse should be stomped? Your logic is amazing. And yes, many pet stores sell mice, and not just as food for other animals.
