From Skyrat to Scrat (published with his blessing)

Copyright of Scrat's picture

I have decided to change Skyrat’s name to Scrat (see picture above)

If you know Skyrat, you will be able to completely relate to why this is relevant, but since you don't let me explain:

1. He is hyperactive beyond belief. Sitting still is NOT an option, it is punishment for him and impossible to achieve. He is the ONLY grown-up that I know that had A.D.D. and he enjoys it!
2. He is ALWAYS trying to bury his nuts and various other parts…..
3. He is obsessed with his ‘treasured possessions’. In Scrat’s case, it is a acorn, in Skyrat’s case it is his skydiving, girlfriend and well, his nuts.
4. He always ends up in trouble, just when he thinks he has reached his goal (in other words, to bury and guard his nut (s)…)
5. He is adorable, just like Scrat, you can’t help but love him to pieces just because you KNOW as soon as he thinks everything is going his way, the world falls to pieces around him.
6. He sees what he wants, goes after it with gusto and energy and when he finally has it, he is so scared that something bad will happen to it, that he does his best to hide (bury) it!

I couldn’t help but see the resemblance between the two and the abbreviation SCRAT in this case goes as follows:

S = Sarcastic
C = Charming
R = Radical
A = Attentive (I was going to put Attractive, but his ego can't handle any more, he'll explode!!)
T = Toyboy

See, when you look at it from my perspective, it makes absolute sense!
