Malevolent Mice
My recent brush with mouse death in Riverside Park has made me aware that New York City is home to some large, malevolently cheerful, truly terrifying mice. Behold the Mickey Mice, or perhaps I should say, Mickey Mouses of the Upper West Side.
I’ve never been scared of mice, but after an encounter with this fifty cent ride-on Mickey, I’m rethinking my position:

That is pretty creepy. I can imagine that thing coming at me with a butcher knife.

My parents gave me a blow-up Mickey Mouse as a Christmas gift when I was about 3. I immediately dreamed that it grew to about 7 feet tall and came after me. I was finished with it as a toy after that.
I feel your mouse-pain.

Can’t figure out why but I chuckled all the way through this post. Could be I have an undiscovered evil side. But thanks for the chuckles.

Truly unpleasant – scarifying… I think I can hear the ghostly eerie chuckles in the background…

I don’t think you’re paranoid at all! :) Once you notice something in the woodwork, you begin to see it everywhere!
