63/365 Bunnies

Ah, fertility. Easter, estrogen, eggs. And rabbits. An egg-laying bunny.

I’ve been rewatching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I haven’t made it to the Anya episodes yet. Anya is a vengeance demon for scorned women. She sports a serious bunny phobia.

As with many long-running TV shows, Buffy eventually had a musical episode. During a number in which everyone is wondering why they are singing everything and what kind of demon could have cursed them in such a way, Anya puts forth her bunny theory, reminding them that those creatures are not to be trusted.

I’ve got a theory. It could be bunnies.
Bunnies aren’t just cute like everybody supposes,
They’ve got them hoppy legs and twitchy little noses.
And what’s with all the carrots?
What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?
Bunnies, bunnies it must be bunnies!

One of the great episodes of one of my favorite series.

Well, Bugs was always a bit of a sly creature, so Anya may be on to something (and I really must watch Buffy one day; I'm beginning to feel like I'm culturally deprived).

So glad I could make some other Buffy lovers happy. Helen: Whether you're culturally deprived isn't the important thing; the important thing is, it's a really great show. However, I've learned to never say to someone else, "You'll love it." Only, "I love it."
