## The story

A rat tail was a commitment. You let one little strip grow for an entire school year while the rest got trimmed, then braided it and finished it with a plastic bead from the craft drawer. Some kids swore it brought luck on spelling tests. Moms everywhere waited for the day it finally got snipped.

## Fun fact

The longest rat tails had to be tucked into shirts during gym so nobody could grab them in dodgeball.
