You know, I wish I knew about this back when I still had pet rats. I would have had a lot of fun with this. Any time I would bring my finger too close to them, they would just try to bite it instead. The idea of playing with it never occurred to them. It's funny to watch the little guys get tickled and actually sound like they're laughing. Amazing still that they can use research like this to develop treatments for human mental conditions. Maybe laughter really is a cure all.

Now I want to try it. Too bad Gen isn't allowed to have any pets at his current place of residence.

Yeah, I kinda miss having my pet rats. Oh well, I need to mind my money carefully right now, anyway. :TT TT:

If the rest of us all hire Gen to design our mansions after we are rich, then he will become rich! Sound like a plan? (I can't put my finger on it, but it seems like there is a slight flaw in this plan...)

That should work, in theory. Now, if you can figure out how to get the rest of yourselves rich, so that plan could be put into action...

I'll enter a beauty contest. The strongest can be the most beautiful, right?

Well... you are quite pretty, so I suppose that could work, in theory...
