BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits

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

WHITE bunny rabbits? You exclude bunny rabbits of color? You narrow minded bigot!

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..."

From: GUEST,

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.

"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.

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.

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.

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.

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...


31 Oct 14 - 01:58 PM (#3673383)
Subject: RE: BS: Fluffy white bunny rabbits
From: Musket

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.

My brother's kids looked after my sister's kids' guinea pig when they went on holiday. They put it in with their rabbit.

Difficult to explain to toddlers, but their guinea pig went to heaven etc whilst they were on holiday.

Basically, it got shagged to death....

Leaning down to her, he asked, "Did you want a white rabbit or would you rather have a soft, fuzzy black rabbit?"

She shrugged and said "I don't think my python really cares".

I pay someone to keep the fur out of the paddock. I rent out the paddocks and the last thing a tenant horse needs is to break their leg running over rabbit holes.
