But that's not stereotypical...

It actually is, relatively speaking.

I see. Misread it as a short Asian .... with a big nose.

Had to limp my car to the repair garage when I was going to take it in for routine oil change.

Mice had got into it again, this time they chewed through the spark plug wires.

Now my car is stuffed with dryer sheets in every spot I can easily get to and know there is no risk of fire (sadly not that many with my tiny engine compartment). With any luck it'll keep the bastards out. Otherwise I'm going to have to find someone with a good jack so I can get at a few more spots.

Few things stress me out more than problems with my car.

I've never seen a single mouse in Australia that wasn't in a zoo or some sort of captive environment. Like Kraco said, increase your traps? Perhaps add a predator or two?

You all have mice in the zoo?

I can't remember to be honest. It wasn't on my priority to-see list all those years ago. I can only assume that if I had seen one, it would have been there or something.

I should probably have said pet shop instead or something, since I actually remember seeing them there.

The ultra venomous spiders and snakes must eat them all.

edit: Australia appears to have plagues of mice.

Is it really that hard to tell the truth by default?

That reminds me of a tweet they showed on Tosh.0 where someone tweeted that zoos in Africa would have animals we consider to be common like dogs and cats. F'in' hilarious.

I was referring to this admission:

Fun Fact: The zoo in Kabul, Afganistan has the country's only pig.

It was quarantined after suffering a bout of swine flu.

Holy shit, the stuff you read in the news! This is from the article you linked:

One fighter climbed into the lion enclosure but was immediately killed by Marjan, the zoo's most famous inhabitant. The man's brother returned the next day and lobbed a hand grenade at the lion leaving him toothless and blind.
