      happy that arturo made the list, but also kind of bummed about the ratman crothers omission.

      Pyramis and Thisby are goddamn hacks. Their parents raised them in a laboratory.

      these rats all nibbled cheese off melissa broder’s cheese helmet to get in and rita’s married and i think fenton cee cee and lorraine are the same creating some musical thomas pynchon rat triumvirate

      the under-representation of female rats on your list is dispiriting.

      Doesn’t someone have to bitch that you mentioned New York?
