Subject: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Musket Date: 30 Oct 14 - 11:38 AM A thread for those of a sensitive nature to be boring and see all views as valid and of equal weight regardless. A thread where I don't take the piss, Jim doesn't call you a goose stepper, Bridge doesn't try out his affected radical conscience and Goofus doesn't miss the point. Enjoy 💇👡👜👯👬👭👫🙏👼👨👩👴👵👱 |

Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: GUEST,sciencegeek Date: 30 Oct 14 - 12:32 PM white rabbit is a tasty Chinese candy... but, Musket, I first thought it was a missing ingredient from winter comfort food... straight from the Road Kill Cafe "from your grill to ours". Or was that Alice's Restaurant? |

Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: GUEST,Rahere Date: 30 Oct 14 - 07:04 PM Trouble is, if you cook the little buggers, you always end up sticking a bone in somewhere painful. Then there's the tale of the two bucks, Fred and Bill, in a rabbit farm, who decide to get things organised. "Look'ee here, Fred," says Bill, "If us'n lines up the girls in a row, and I start at this end, and you start at that end, we'll get the job done in 'arf the time." No sooner said than done, "Thank'ee mar'm, thank'ee mar'm, thank'ee mar'm, thank'ee mar'm, sorry Fred, thank'ee mar'm..." |

Same for squirrels, deer, groundhogs, or the unrestrained hair(hare?)dos of cooks and wait staff. |
Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Musket Date: 31 Oct 14 - 02:56 AM Did you know? On my birthday, people in Wales wake up and shout "White Rabbits!" Mudcat, where you live and learn. |
Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: GUEST, Date: 31 Oct 14 - 03:47 AM The problem of sharp bones comes from buying rabbit joints from the butcher/supermarket, which have been chopped haphazardly leaving splinters of bone. Buy a whole rabbit and joint it carefully yourself. |
Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: MGM·Lion Date: 31 Oct 14 - 04:27 AM "white rabbit! -- A phrase said, before saying anything else, on the first day of the month in order to bring good luck" -- Wictionary. As always, there are several versions of the superstition. I was brought up to the one that you only say it [in the plural, BTW, as 'White rabbits'] on waking on the first day of the month in which your own birthday, or that of someone particularly close, occurs. My wife Emma knows exactly the same version; we both originated in N London, which may have something to do with it. We also have birthdays in the same month, so can say it for one another simultaneously. ≈M≈ |

Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Musket Date: 31 Oct 14 - 05:52 AM Interesting Mike. I was born on St David's Day, which is the first of the month I suppose. I was always led to believe it was a St David's Day tradition to shout white rabbits if you were a) Welsh and b) into that sort of thing. Media being what it is, I suppose there are as many versions as there are books claiming them. But I bow to your first hand knowledge of pre Caxton days. |

Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Ed T Date: 31 Oct 14 - 06:15 AM The Lion: It is said in Africa that the Lion fears nothing but a bird called the "game cock" because it wears a crown,and spurs. According to local superstition, the lion see's this cock as its equal. |
Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Musket Date: 31 Oct 14 - 06:25 AM All this talk about lions' cocks.. I used to be in a Lions Club. My favourite aspect was that according to Attenborough, a lion can mate up to seven times in an hour. One old lass exclaimed "Thank heavens my husband is a Rotarian!" Ithankyouverymuch |

Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Mrrzy Date: 31 Oct 14 - 12:27 PM Musket, I wondered which first you were born on, so my next question since you've answered that is why do the Welsh have a reputation for leeking? Also, did you know rabbits' arms aren't attached to their bodies by bone, so they are very easy to take apart? I heard as a teenager that if "rabbit rabbit" was the very first thing a girl said on the first of the month, she wouldn't get pregnant that month. I never asked if anybody had remembered to say it, though... |
Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Musket Date: 31 Oct 14 - 01:58 PM No idea about the Welsh. I used to have a girlfriend in Dollgellu and it was a bugger driving to see her... Regarding becoming a honorary Welshman, I couldn't get my head between the bars of the gate. (Look it up if you don't know it, or pay good money when I am rarely asked to appear in a concert.) As a kid, I was taught how to take a rabbit's jacket off, gut and bone it. Only last week, we had rabbit and leek pie. The rabbit was off a field at the back of the garden and we pay a bloke to keep the rabbits down, and the leek was from said garden. It wasnt white though. Fluffy rabbits don't have the taste of a wild coney. |

Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: MGM·Lion Date: 01 Nov 14 - 05:32 AM Well, they talk of shagging like rabbits, don't they, topsie? Sound like your neighbours had some enterprising pussikatz. Just read your post to Cleo; but she only said Miaouw. A bit communicatively challenged I fear...

Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Musket Date: 01 Nov 14 - 06:26 AM My brother's kids looked after my sister's kids' guinea pig when they went on holiday.

Basically, it got shagged to death.... 🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇 |

Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits From: Steve Shaw Date: 01 Nov 14 - 07:15 AM Yeah, we had to separate our kids' guinea pig and rabbit for the same reason. Poor little guinea pig had an arse like a half-chewed blood orange. Make sure you only get a girl rabbit is my advice. |
