Robot Rat Bullies Real Rats Into Depression…for Science!

So why didn't they ad a fourth setting called manager mode where no matter what the live rat does the robot undoes it then redoes it, albeit poorly, while claiming the action as its own!

I know for a fact that tends to bring on human depression surprisingly fast.

Why use lab rats when we've got *lawyers*? Why?

1. There's more of 'em.

2. Animal-rights activists don't get in a tiff when experiments go horribly wrong.

3. There are some things a rat just won't do.

:-))

It's safer to handle rats.

Yes, it takes rats longer to devour your checkbook.

You gotta know just one word and they're putty in your hands: Money. But you can still be creative: Show a lawyer you've got a wad of cash and then stick it back in your pocket. S/he'll follow you around like puppy.

Print off a couple of fake G-notes on a good color printer, bind 'em around a bunch of crisp ones (that they'll automatically assume are more G-notes) and give it a toss. It's how you play fetch.

Take one of your fake G-notes, light a match and threaten to burn it whilst also promising 'em it's theirs - and more, much more - if they do what you tell 'em. They'll fall over themselves scrambling to comply.

Eventually they'll get wind of your duplicity - they are masters of it, after all - and when they do they'll turn hostile, of course, and that's when you test your experimental drugs.

It's all in how you play the game.

Destroy their will to live, then replace it with drugs.....I thought we were already doing that.....
