I DO NOT APPROVE OF THIS MESSAGE!

:-)

2 Another Angela 02.10.08 at 3:15 am

The mighty disapproval has burned my a hole in my soul.

3 (the original) Mel 02.10.08 at 3:16 am

I disapprove of Caturday.

4 Bekka 02.10.08 at 3:16 am

Can you say Disapproving Rabbits.com? He’ll fit right in!

5 Barbara 02.10.08 at 3:18 am

I need this bunny around me at all times to keep me from doing bad things. I’m about to quit smoking; he can be my monitor.

6 Pheas 02.10.08 at 3:22 am

One thing I can say about this:
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8 sadtomato 02.10.08 at 3:26 am

Could his disapproving nose be more velvety?

9 DoodleyDog 02.10.08 at 3:33 am

Why are buns the masters of disapproval?

I dunno….but their excellence is this field is unparalleled.

Good thing my screen isn’t big enough to display the whole thing, qg. That much disapproval is deadly!

14 Lone 02.10.08 at 3:42 am

Motherinlaw bunny disapproves of your cooking.

15 Louise 02.10.08 at 3:44 am

The only thing Cinnamon would approve of is this bun’s level of disapproval.

16 liz 02.10.08 at 3:46 am

GoodLaud Meg-
Me feels Dissed.
totally unforgiving Bunnage.
still prayin for Ponies!1!
pleeeeeze!
(although the bunnage is ok)
can ya put in on a leash and harness and drag it around the room, preferably on a hard wood floor??? that’d help.
dis-approvin bunn-bunn.

17 snoopysnake 02.10.08 at 3:46 am

Good luck, Barbara!

I think this bunneh looks like Wilford Brimley.

18 Kathy 02.10.08 at 4:02 am

OMG! That much condemnation shoots lightning bolts at all who dare look!!

19 radiantblue 02.10.08 at 4:02 am

His gruff exterior hides a soft fluffy bunny heart. You can see it in his eyes…um eye. Looks like my granpa.lol

20 Margaret 02.10.08 at 4:17 am

Whatever I did, I promise I won’t do it again.

21 golden 02.10.08 at 4:23 am

That is the most disapproval in one face I have evar seen! I’d try to say something funny, but I’m shamed into silence…

22 mif 02.10.08 at 4:24 am

i think he is disapproving of my overwhelming desire to plant a big kiss on that velvety nose and mouf.

23 Andrea|Nash 02.10.08 at 4:34 am

C’mon – this is a rabbit!

This is why we shouldn’t assume animals express human feelings (anthropomorphise) – they can’t help how they look.

But, by golly, I think he might be saying, “Kids, Hillary was patient as an angel – Barrack’ll have his turn … why’s he gotta do it right now?”

24 Barbara 02.10.08 at 4:35 am

He kind of looks like my grandmother, too.

Which means my grandmother looks like Wilford Brimley :(

25 scruffylove 02.10.08 at 4:43 am

Someone just draw a circle on his nose and we’ll have the perfect hangman. Seriously, nose lines to lip lines, hope no one guesses the wrong letter.

26 Chris Tucker 02.10.08 at 4:48 am

Disapproving Rabbit…

Disapproves!

27 Rachel of Cyberia 02.10.08 at 4:57 am

I disapprove of all you people approving of my disapproval!

28 ButtaRumCake 02.10.08 at 5:01 am

All bun needs is those wee little glasses to sit right on the tip of his nose.
*giggles uncontrollably*

29 A thinker 02.10.08 at 5:10 am

Y’know, after having owned several rabbits, I can attest to the fact that lagomorphic disapproval is not limited to their (unintentional) facial configuration. No, the last rabbit I owned did *indeed* disapprove of just about everything–particularly my hand reaching into his cage. This was viewed as an intrusion into his territory and was greeted with most disapproving grunts and paw-thrusts.

30 Nicolletta 02.10.08 at 5:40 am

That bunny needs a hug.

31 circuscake 02.10.08 at 5:44 am

doesn’t he kinda look like walter cronkite?

i would *not* wanna be on his bad side…

32 chanpon 02.10.08 at 5:54 am

So actor John Houseman came back as a bunny, huh?

33 Kar 02.10.08 at 6:15 am

Unfortunately, nothing can match my mother’s disproving glare.

Those eyes though, they could burn a whole in a foot deep titanium wall.

34 liz 02.10.08 at 6:33 am

yes, A thinker, as a bunny momma i can confirm that rabbits disapprove of many, many things… like not making with the lettuce fast enough … or the pellets… or the treats… or the nose rubs…

35 Nakey 02.10.08 at 6:42 am

HAROMPH!

36 Anna 02.10.08 at 6:56 am

Rabbit -> the friend from Winnie the Pooh would exactly look like that!!!
Inclusive the Harumphing sounds!!!

37 Red 02.10.08 at 6:59 am

Barbara, I did it. You can too. Five yrs as of Mar. 1st. 1. visualize bun disapproval. 2. The patch. 3. Have you ever tried to quit before? Remember how the 1st cig after 3 days made you feel all green and pukey? Visualize that. 4. OK not cute. Visualize all the happy buns on the very first day that you realize that you don’t miss it one bit. Yes, that day will come. 5. Failure is not an option.

38 Holy Cuteness 02.10.08 at 7:05 am

GRUMPY!

39 Carrie 02.10.08 at 7:44 am

You know something, I used to think every human being had at least *some* sense of irony at at least a drop of humor.

But if the the interwebs (and pitiful, pathetic people/bots like Andrea) have taught me anything, that is just sadly not the case.

Dissapprove on fluffy bun, dissapprove on…

40 Doubleclcik 02.10.08 at 8:07 am

What do ya mean, “bunny”? Let me understand this cause, I don’t know maybe it’s me, I’m a little f*cked up maybe, but I’m bunny how? I mean, bunny like I’m a clown, I amuse you?

41 berthaslave 02.10.08 at 8:23 am

TOTALLY John Houseman!!! Or dare I say WINSTON CHURCHILL?

“I do not find the term ‘Bun-day’ Amusing!!”

42 Gail 02.10.08 at 10:50 am

I find all this attention appalling!!! Harrummmph!!

43 acelightning 02.10.08 at 11:25 am

That has got to be the DISAPPROVING-est bunny in the history of disapproval!

44 sas 02.10.08 at 12:23 pm

oh my! The only way he could look more disapproving would be to have leetle glasses propped indignantly on the end of his nose.

The disapproving gaze over the glasses would be bone chilling.

Sorry Mr. Bun Buns, I promise not to do it…again… or ever!

45 Bunny Girl 02.10.08 at 12:55 pm

46 kittycat 02.10.08 at 2:40 pm

NOT a happy bunny!!

47 maggiesmom 02.10.08 at 2:46 pm

this bun is so disapproving that even it’s whiskers are afraid to show themselves!

48 Emily 02.10.08 at 3:05 pm

*lays slices of banana and other treats in front of the bunny, then snorggles gently* He’s just hungry.

49 Carly 02.10.08 at 3:09 pm

Derby is most excited about all the attention. He’s lost his ability to disapprove, at least briefly.

50 Theresa 02.10.08 at 3:17 pm

ButtaRumCake,
Like Bunny Rabbit from the old Captain Kangaroo show?
http://www.tvparty.com/bgifs12/captkang11.jpg

He was a mightily disapproving bun.

51 Martha 02.10.08 at 3:25 pm

This bunny looks like the head rabbit from the story WATERSHIP DOWN ! Perfect expression !

52 bananasforbunnies 02.10.08 at 4:57 pm

No wonder he disapproves!

He has lost his whiskers!! Someone needs to go and find them real quick.

PS. and 3 slices of bananas would help ease the disapproval I sure.

53 Anasztaizia 02.10.08 at 5:06 pm

This guy makes me want a bunny.

54 D Cupp 02.10.08 at 5:14 pm

If anyone has ever read redwall, this is just how i see the hares as being!!

55 Anasztaizia 02.10.08 at 5:14 pm

OMG! I just thought of all the disapproving looks this guy and banker cat could give together!

*melts*

56 Carrie 02.10.08 at 5:29 pm

Noone tell Cinnamon about this bun – because she has always been the most disapprovingnist in all the land, and I think this bun could be headed to the woods to live with little scary men who dig diamonds.

57 Carrie 02.10.08 at 5:32 pm

http://www.flickr.com/photos/wiredwitch/2242072123/sizes/l/in/photostream/

HOLD THE PHONE – This bun has moved to a whole new level of disapproval here folks – the pic on CO is NUFFIN’ ;) compared to that disapproval – eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

58 anner 02.10.08 at 5:32 pm

nuff bun does not see humor in profanity.

59 circuscake 02.10.08 at 5:35 pm

yes, barbara- i second the patch suggestion. i left mine on 24/7. (5 years this month!) if you use them, be sure to wear ‘em for the whole six weeks. they are expensive but still cheaper than smokes (in more ways than one).

and don’t forget to still give yourself little breaks throughout the day, or you’ll start to feel stressed and resentful.

also- i had so much trouble quitting smoking i finally just got down on my knees and admitted i was powerless over smoking and asked my ‘higher power’ for help. perhaps this bun-bun could be *your* ‘higher power’(?) exercise also helps but (saddly) eating is more fun.

i have to say, this is the *most* diapproving bunny i ever saw. i don’t know if i could ever live with a bunny and stand such relentless disdain…

60 A thinker 02.10.08 at 5:42 pm

This may be so wrong, but I just want to *kees* those soft velvety frowny disapproving little leeps.

61 Lol xd 02.10.08 at 5:51 pm

I luv tihs kitteh xd

62 james 02.10.08 at 5:56 pm

i disagree. attributing emotions to animals is not “anthropomorphizing” since facial expressions among all mammals play a role in communication and emotion. humans are mammals too. smile

63 Cinnamon 02.10.08 at 6:02 pm

I’m Cinnamon, and I approve this post.

64 RosieLB 02.10.08 at 6:40 pm

Actually, I think he looks like Patrick Stewart.

“Report, Number One.”

65 Lucy's mommeh 02.10.08 at 6:47 pm

Barb-good luck on the stopping smoking.
McDonald’s straws are the same size as cigareets & help with the oral thing. Get a stress ball & keep with you. Ride out the cravings…BREATHE..(think about it, when you smoke, it’s a big sigh)…and remember, you won’t die if you don’t smoke…

66 ginger 02.10.08 at 7:22 pm

it’s general woundwort from watership down!

67 dharlan1too 02.10.08 at 7:43 pm

This bunn in now my wallpaper and my screen saver says, “OBUNNA FOR PRESIDENT”.

68 Andrea|Nash 02.10.08 at 8:05 pm

Sorry folks – it was supposed to be sorta funny – shoulda used a icon :) OK?

I am not a people/bot – I’m just old and really shouldn’t doodle on the net after 10:00.

“OBUNNA FOR PRESIDENT” is good (all my male offspring feel the same) – but I offer Bunnihil as a wise alternative ;)

69 Andrea|Nash 02.10.08 at 8:09 pm

Meant to pat Barbara on the back – that riding out the craving thing is good advice. It helped especially after I read they never last more than two minutes and they come farther and farther apart as time goes by.

Good luck!

I’ve never imagined a BUNNY could look so rugged and masculine! Look out Chuck Norris.

72 Sara 02.10.08 at 9:01 pm

I think he looks like Sam the Eagle from the Muppets. Anyone else see that? XD

73 Annie 02.10.08 at 9:17 pm

Andrea|Nash, Some of us knew you were being funny.
: )

74 ashagato 02.10.08 at 9:26 pm

yay barbara, you can do it! i quit two months ago, and i swear it gets easier. i’m soooo happy! already i can make it up the stairs without feeling elderly…

this bun disapproves of smoking!!!

75 sasha 02.10.08 at 9:57 pm

*recoils from the bitter sting of bunny disapproval*

78 Liz 02.10.08 at 10:48 pm

Wow, I thought my bunneh was disapproving, but this guy puts him to shame! If only disapproving bunns knew that their humans only think their disapproval is anerable!

79 dharlan1too 02.10.08 at 11:18 pm

Derby, if that is approval, I can certainly understand how bunn can look so disapproving. Is that the best smile bunn has!?

80 liz 02.10.08 at 11:30 pm

AThinker=overthinkin it ,i’m thinkin.
perhaps ‘SHE” has PMS.
looks like i feel at times.

[pleez forgive random capitalization, incorrect punctuationality, and crappy [creative]spelling. it iz the COl way after all]

snorgle it til it smiles!!!!

81 mishele 02.10.08 at 11:39 pm

Bunnies are the best at disapproval, but for downright insults you gotta turn to a cat. I can just walk by my cat and all the skin and fur on the side facing me shrinks up because they are being touched by air molecules that just touched me. Ah, the finesse! The fine scarring of acid insult, I admire it so!

82 Lauren 02.10.08 at 11:53 pm

That belongs on Disapproving Rabbits!

83 Pheas 02.11.08 at 12:47 am

Sounds like someone is working the cattitude at mishele’s house!

84 Lizzy 02.11.08 at 12:58 am

That’s not just disapproval. That’s downright reprehension. I’m sorry Misser Bunbun! I’ll be good! … Please stop looking at me like that. Please? C’mon, stop it! Mooooooom!!!

85 Jenn 02.11.08 at 1:23 am

Yay! Cinnamon approves!

And Birdchick rules. I’m just sayin’.

86 yet another michelle 02.11.08 at 1:27 am

Good Luck Barbara! My husband just quit this week (day 4) after over 20 years. He’s doing the patch, and he says it helps to have hard candies to suck on. He’s obvy opting for eating instead of exercising, but one hurdle at a time. We’ve just been trying to keep busy too, so the boredom doesn’t tempt him.

Good luck!

87 Jenn 02.11.08 at 3:10 am

Yay! Cinnamon approves!

And Birdchick rules. I’m just sayin’.

88 bananasforbunnies 02.11.08 at 3:17 am

Carrie,

That other photo of him is on another level! It almost seared off my eyebrows from the disapproval and squinty eyes (said in a quiet soft whisper in case he hears me).

89 Momof2kitties 02.11.08 at 3:22 am

John Housebun disappoves of this post.

90 Momof2kitties 02.11.08 at 3:23 am

“disapproves”

duh.

91 rachel cullen 02.11.08 at 3:49 am

HEEHEEHEE!!!!
he looks like he’s pushing back his chin to force out all the angry energy his double chin/furry breast can muster.

92 Jelly 02.11.08 at 5:45 am

He looks just like the Finnish politician Paavo Lipponen.

93 Sam 02.11.08 at 7:32 am

When I read the phrase, “Major Harumphing sounds,” all I could think was, “This bunny’s name should be Major Harumph.”

94 Chris Tucker 02.11.08 at 7:57 am

If it’s any help in quitting smoking, keep in mind that second hand smoke is just as bad, if not worse, for your pets.

95 KatBoxJanitor 02.11.08 at 9:01 am

How much more disapproval can you pack into a bunn-dle of fur?

He could almost put a cat in their “place” Like they HAVE one!

My first comment – not my first view.
LUV CO 2bits!

96 maggiesmom 02.11.08 at 11:57 am

101 JC 02.11.08 at 5:23 pm

You’re taking the car, when?

102 zeldapie 02.11.08 at 6:10 pm

Hooray, it’s CINNAMON!
I have your t-shirt, my dear disapproving bunster. Whenever I wear it I get lots of looks (mostly quizzical). I HEART you, even if you disapprove!

103 Arokthis 02.11.08 at 7:24 pm

Makes me think of James Earl Jones.

104 catloveschanel 02.11.08 at 7:30 pm

you mean dolphins aren’t actually delighted 24-7?

This truculent old grump is the cutest DR yet!!!!

106 WickedWendy 02.11.08 at 11:28 pm

He looks like an old man! Too cute! RosieLB, definately NOT Patrick Stewart! LOL

107 jess e. 02.12.08 at 12:50 am

Bunderfoof! I love it! Um, I mean, I disapprove wholeheartedly!!!

108 liz 02.12.08 at 1:11 am

well. i quite smoking for three years(cold turkey after 20 some odd years). the whole time i
kept a half smoked pack of smokes in my freezer, made me feel like i hadnt lost anything. then one night (three years later)with a lil too much 2-Buck, i pulled out that pack and smoked one of those nasty things.
now thats hard core, and now, i smoke when i drink and thats it. (gunna stop that “someday” too)
good luck to you!
just remember- if you start again you have to start quitting ALL over again. that did help me through, at the time.

109 ashagato 02.12.08 at 4:29 am

katboxjanitor, i love it.

and i forgot to shout out to Anner for “nuff bun does not see humor in profanity.” lol!!!

110 Subhangi 02.12.08 at 7:38 am

Whoa. Someone’s REALLY grumpy. :P

111 LisaLisa 02.12.08 at 4:10 pm

He’s grumpy because someone stole his whiskers!

I love this bun – I must have him for my own.

112 ThreeCatNight 02.12.08 at 4:48 pm

The late John Houseman reincarnated as a rabbit:

113 shutterbug74 02.26.08 at 11:44 pm

I think that bun would disapprove of us thinking that it disapproves (even though we are right!) :)
