Rats is an exclamation used to express disappointment, frustration, or mild annoyance. It appeared in English in the early 20th century as a euphemistic, lighthearted substitute for stronger curses, likely inspired by the negative associations of actual rats. People used it in everyday conversation, comic strips, and family-friendly media to react to small setbacks or irritations. Today it is inoffensive, playful, and informal, often signaling minor frustration or disappointment without being vulgar.
