Hung out to dry

by Meg on September 3, 2009

If you drape buns over the rack like this;

They’ll stay fluffy.

Fluffy Bunny disapproves of fluffiness.

2 DaytimeDeb 09.03.09 at 6:07 am

Who’s a fluffy bunny? Who is? It’s you, you’re a fluffy bunny!

But it also reminds me of the uneven bars you used to see in gymnastics at the olympics. I give this bunny the gold.

Bunny grew arms in the second picture!!
Btw.. love your eye makeup bun!

4 Dreamspinner Cheryl 09.03.09 at 6:14 am

Looks like Bun forgot to wash his feetsies. Has he been digging in the carrot patch again?!?

5 Lizzums 09.03.09 at 6:15 am

Does this count as Buns N Racks? Little different meaning than usual, but…..

6 Saffron 09.03.09 at 6:16 am

There’s a lot of disapproval there….I fear for the life of the bun’s human!

7 Jimbeaux 09.03.09 at 6:17 am

*checks drying rack*

*waits impatiently for bun!*

8 Mamamclain 09.03.09 at 6:20 am

1st Picture- You will pay with your life!
2nd Picture- Well, maybe not, the attention is nice, but the process? *bun sigh, blazes weapons of mass disapproval (WMD’s)*

9 Auntie Meme 09.03.09 at 6:22 am

Competitor #479 refuses to curtsy at the end of her routine and instead glares disapprovingly at the gymnastics judges.

10 Katrina 09.03.09 at 6:26 am

MY God- think of the lint filters! They could be felted into sweaters!

11 Hon Glad 09.03.09 at 6:35 am

This is Nadia Knockabollockova the reigning Romanian champion, on the Bunsymetric bars. Although we note in the second picture she also enjoys Dimitri’s bar, where she is also champion, at beer snarfing.

12 LisaL 09.03.09 at 6:47 am

*gasps* They wouldn’t be able to get a good photograph b/c my face would be planted on to that soft white beleh!!!

13 chanpon 09.03.09 at 6:49 am

This also helps buns keep their shape, rather than getting all balled and scrunchy in a dryer.

14 jen 09.03.09 at 6:50 am

aaaaahhhh! the feets!!! the feeeeeets!!!!!! so cute

15 260Oakley 09.03.09 at 6:52 am

This is obviously one of those fancy “guest” towels. It’s probably hanging next to a dish “guest” soaps shaped like vegetables and flowers. If you actually use anything of these things to wash your hands you will incur the disapproval of both your hostess and the towel.

16 Andi from NC 09.03.09 at 7:07 am

I can actually feel the disapproval burning me!!!

17 Argyle Donkeypants 09.03.09 at 7:20 am

Let’s see. If I take the surface area of the bunneh’s belly [takes out calculator, tap tap tap tap tap tap] and compare it to roughly the area of my nose, mouth, and chin [tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap] plus figure in a little bit of room to breathe [tap tap tap tap] I conclude that this bun’s belly is ideal for full-contact snorgling. By me, of course.

18 Kelsey 09.03.09 at 7:20 am

I want a bunny. :( I want THAT bunny.

19 Von Zeppelin 09.03.09 at 7:31 am

AAAAGGGGHHHH! The horror! NOT CUTE. Horrible! Don’t you know that THE RACK was a horrible instrument of torture used by such horrible torturers as the Spanish Inquisition, and other horrible torturers? Think for JUST A MOMENT of what might happen to this poor bunny, once the Spanish Inquisition gets ahold of him! Think of the children who look at this site. Think what might happen if somebody turned on the blender (Oops–that was another Horrible Not Cute picture).

I know all about this kind of torture. I pinched my finger once folding up one of those drying racks. I immediately confessed to false doctrine, heresy, schism, hardness of heart and contempt of God’s Word and commandment, so the Spanish Inquisition let me go.

20 Argyle Donkeypants 09.03.09 at 7:36 am

@ Von Zep — That’s it. It’s The Comfy Chair for you. Guards! Seize him!

21 Sher 09.03.09 at 7:38 am

@VZ, honestly, you should be paid for your work here. Always enjoy what you come up with! :)

22 Juniper Jolie-Pop 09.03.09 at 7:45 am

In the first pick, bunny looks like he’s fixin’ to get his neck broken.

The second one is genious! He she is ON TOP, IN CONTROL!

23 SoCalSis 09.03.09 at 7:46 am

Von Zepp… that’s the problem. NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!!

Personally, I’m waiting for the nuffers to have their first cuppa, stretch, yawn, and then (OMG!!!!1) take umbrage at the outright and outrageous suggestion of tossing Mr. Buns into a dryer. So where’s the umbrage? *glances at watch* *taps toe ever so discretely*

24 Leslie (NTA) 09.03.09 at 7:50 am

@ Auntie Mame: wow. if there have been 479 competitors, I think that perhaps even the JUDGES may be feeling disapproval simply due to the famous condition Post-Judging Stress Disorder !!

(Shouts out, to both VZ & AD — “OUT!” ) (Not telling them to go away, just “shouting OUT”. snicker)

25 Leslie (NTA) 09.03.09 at 7:54 am

@ SoCalSis :

Hooray !! Now I can begin my day w/ a wonderful MPython reference to Catholics & the dreaded Sp. Inq. (Related: my book of choice this week just *happens* to be all about Official Catholicism & the Hays Code, censorship on motion pictures in the 1930s/ 40s …hmmmmm…..)

26 Darsa 09.03.09 at 7:58 am

Yep, exactly my thought SoCalSis, LOL; luckily I think all the nuffers are still pouting in the corner after the suggestion to puree yer kitteh…

27 Camille 09.03.09 at 8:05 am

Cute Overload has had its buns hung out to dry? I’m so confused.

The eyebrow gives the bun a particularly disapproving look.

28 Theresa 09.03.09 at 8:33 am

VonZep, GIVE the RACK a TURN!

29 Katrina 09.03.09 at 8:50 am

Schism, so THAT’s what’s been bothering me all day, I’m having a Schism! Or am I ‘in schism’. Hmmmmmmm.

Beautiful bunnnastics, there, too!

30 Trixie 09.03.09 at 8:53 am

He looks like a wonky ferret in the first picture, which is sorta weird :O.

31 pyrit 09.03.09 at 9:04 am

Bunny laundering! Oh no. CO’s all washed up!

32 YC 09.03.09 at 9:21 am

CAREFUL, GUYS! The implications behind these photos will probably inspire people to put their pets through the washer! What if it were a human baby with a jug of capped bleach next to its head? That bunny looks so uncomfortable, its owners obviously draped it over the rack for their own amusement and just left the poor bunny there! I PROTEST!

33 nismo 09.03.09 at 9:27 am

The little “eyebrow” on the second picture makes this bun look especially disapproving.

34 Auntie Meme 09.03.09 at 9:56 am

It’s the Stephen Colbert eyebrow

35 Hon Glad 09.03.09 at 10:07 am

@260 Oakley – Does the guest toilet have a crochet, crinoline lady, toilet roll cover?

36 AuntieMame 09.03.09 at 10:08 am

Hi, Auntie Meme. People are confusing you for me again. :)

LOL at Von Zep!

37 Darsa 09.03.09 at 10:31 am

#35 – LOL!! =D

38 Sara 09.03.09 at 10:41 am

I must protest also. Bunnies get nervous, and what happens if this bun freaks out, slips, and fall backwards? Looks like he’ll whack into a few bars on the way down. =/

Kitty in a blender = not OK
Rabbit drapped on a towel rack = OK??

I’m confused…

39 Andi from NC 09.03.09 at 10:42 am

@SoCalSis – thanks for whisking me back in time with the MP reference – a true classic!

40 Rooanne 09.03.09 at 11:11 am

I hate to do it but —- Squeeeee! squeeeee!!

My Bun Bun must have looked like this – almost – when he was a baby bun. Only he was hung out to dry in a different way I think, since he was homeless. If only I’d had him from little bun size – maybe he’d not be so reluctant to be handled.

41 260Oakley 09.03.09 at 11:22 am

@Hon Glad — Yes, it sits in between the seashell-covered tissue box concealer and the can of air freshener that hasn’t been used since the in-laws visited in 1997.

42 Theresa 09.03.09 at 11:53 am

@260Oakley, now wait, there couldn’t also be a clear acrylic toilet seat with money embedded in it?

43 AuntieMame 09.03.09 at 11:59 am

I thought I’d seen a lot of tacky bathroom accessories, but I’ve never seen an acrylic seat with money in it. What else have I missed????

44 Von Zeppelin 09.03.09 at 12:16 pm

Here in Oklahoma, the really classy toilet seats are crimson padded vinyl and play “Boomer Sooner” when you sit down.

45 gleopatra 09.03.09 at 12:42 pm

bun! o how presh

46 KittyAdventures 09.03.09 at 12:55 pm

Auntemamae the acrylic one with seashells…

47 Paunchie 09.03.09 at 12:57 pm

Boomer Sooner LOL that IS class, man!

Buns have three toes? I did not know.

48 TOOM 09.03.09 at 1:18 pm

Anya Emmanuela Jenkins would be terrified by this picture!

49 Aleutie 09.03.09 at 1:21 pm

And if you have a dozen bunnies, they can make a nice window treatment!

50 DonnaGrayson 09.03.09 at 1:23 pm

Those are the cutest bunny toes ever !

51 Pheas 09.03.09 at 1:23 pm

Bunce™ Fabric Softener — You’ve never loved your laundry this much!

52 Ptycho 09.03.09 at 1:41 pm

That little angora sweater sure looks mad, maybe he wasn’t hand washed only.

53 Ptycho 09.03.09 at 1:42 pm

He’s also got built in disapproval lines, over here *circles in sharpie* and here *circles in sharpie*.

54 Nikki 09.03.09 at 4:13 pm

Von Z – LOL! Your classiness is most impressive! Love your posts…
@Paunchie – Bunnies have 4 toes in the back and 5 toes on their front feet.

55 Pebble 09.03.09 at 5:17 pm

first you dry the bunny…. then it’s ready to be eaten ;) ))

56 victoreia 09.03.09 at 7:52 pm

I thought bunny laundering was illegal….oh wait, wrong “-uney”…..

(singing) The Inquisition. What a show. The Inquisition. Here we go….

57 kibblenibble 09.03.09 at 8:10 pm

Okay, I don’t know how we got on tacky toilet seat covers, and I’m too tired to go back and read all the comments again, so here’s my 2 cents: A man I know had a toilet seat cover in faux black leather w/ Harley insignia, to simulate “riding” on the harley when he couldn’t actually be doing that. He said his fantasy would be complete if he could equip the toilet with a set of handlebars. OK, no offense to Harley fans, but that man’s wife has the patience of a saint.

58 A.N. Mouse 09.03.09 at 10:07 pm

I am in love with those toes!

59 KatieZientek 09.04.09 at 12:18 am

Why do people feel the need to put their pets into situations like this to make them cute? This bunny is cute on its own.

60 shampoo 09.04.09 at 12:22 am

aw, the bunny don’t likes it. but the little black-tipped ears so are sweet (and the fuzzy toes). (added by Mobile using Mippin)

61 dramallamaorama 09.04.09 at 6:22 am

The person’s hand indicates that the bunny was not in danger of falling.

It is cute!

62 Katrina 09.04.09 at 7:30 am

Pheas – Bunce- with the delightful scent of alfalfa!

63 SoCalSis 09.04.09 at 7:47 am

Katrina, I’d pay extra $$$ for fabric softener in ‘alfalfa’. Worked one summer on a rance in central Oregon, and the bestest most wonderfulest smell in the world is fresh cut alfalfa on a bright early summer morning.

64 Frank 09.18.09 at 8:23 am

Not big enough yet to cook. Just wait a couple of years. In the meantime, enjoy his cuteness. I have a good recipe to cook him with if you want though.
