"*Thud-Crunch*"

Driving home tonight (about half an hour ago), I've gone out of my way giving someone a lift, and so am on the back-roads.

Then suddenly, a rabbit in the road. I brake, he darts left. I pull the other way (after checking my rear view). Then he changes direction, it's all I can do to try to line him up to hopefully pass between the wheels and under me. But he makes one last gasp lunge for the curb.
*Thud* (I believe head on bumper)
*Crunch* (I feel him go under the wheel)

I go out of my way to avoid even killing insects, I even bottled out of killing the first ants to appear in the kitchen this year. So I'm not feeling too good about it. I remember driving to the test centre before my first driving test. A small dog ran into the road, and I braked to let him through. My instructor told me that would have failed me my test, and that I should consider it 'dead already'. But that doesnt really wash with me.


Oh well, I guess on one level it's a reminder that someone's always had a worse day than me :^(

I watched it on an acid comedown.

Mistake.
Ever.

That's rubbish. A dog jumped out in front of me on my test and I emergency stopped, so the examiner basically decided I had passed and started writing out his shopping list.

He needed carrots, mangoes and cauliflower - I think he was some kind of crazed vegetarian.

I called her a ..., ok?!
Harsh words I know, but it was in the heat of the moment.
And just because you're letting the public know, doesn't mean I'm not actually getting any... does it?

What did you just call my mother?

Right. That is it! Outside! I want to tell you in public that you aint getting it tonight!

Maybe it's just a case of "that's not funny", and I'm looking for something to be funny.
I understand it, I just don't understand how it's funny.

Me too, " a film about bunny wabbits, how cute, i have to watch that" i seem to remember thinking when i was a kid, it isnt a nice film.

Best word ever?

Look on a dating site and see the word, "desperate". Best. Word. Ever!

Heh, the eyes.. those red eyes....
*trembles*
^best word ever?

I thought about Watership down, but that film scared me as a child, so after I got back up from under my desk I went a different way.

Surely you could have found a watership down angle?

Maybe I can convince myself it was an evil bunny? :^D
