“Bunny”? Cute.

Rule of Cuteness #44: Ears at 9 and 3 o’clock are cute

Sender-inner Amy S. and her cat Sebastian bring us our last new Rule of Cuteness for 2009:  If your ears point at 9 and 3 o’clock, you’re cute.  And if your ears point at 10, 2 and 4 o’clock, it’s time for a brisk, refreshing Dr Pepper!

Rule of Cuteness #31: The “Stubbular” Stage is Cute

People, I realized that rule #31 and Rule #36 were like, identical (Someone in QA is soooo getting fired) So I am creating a NEW rule #31.

Rule of Cuteness #31; The ‘Stubbular” stage is cute. That means a young ani-pal with short, non-grown limbs or tails. Here’s what I mean:

Stubbles

Let’s get stubbular! stubbular! [sing in Olivia Newton John voice]

Rule of Cuteness #41: Exposing a vulnerable area is cute

In a similar vein as Rule #2: “Look Helpless”, Rule #41 is all about exposing a VULNERABLE AREA!

If said area is SQUEEZABUHL and/or soft, this it’s all over.
