Question

In an American city inhabited by this race, it is illegal to ask police officers for help, and jail inmates are told, “You have the right to scream your head off.” Audiences stay seated for this race’s anthem, which says, “Don’t let the sunshine spoil your rain.” Two newscasters of this race are Walter Cranky and Dan Rather-not, who responds to any question with “I’d rather not.” A theme park for this race is known as Six Crabs Yucky World, while a vacation at (*) Swamp Mushy Muddy turned one member of this race from orange to green. The orange-skinned Bruno, who never speaks, also acts as a personal chauffeur for that member of this race. Members of this race keep worms as pets and enjoy eating sardines, but will never admit to being happy about anything. For 10 points, name these misanthropic furry creatures that typically live in trash cans. ■END■ (10[4]0[2])
