13 Bunnies of Halloween #11

I did a "Ways Not To Die" post on the so-called "Rabbit of Caerbannog" in Monty Python and the Holy Grail way back in 2011 -- click here to see that and be entertained by some of my earliest attempts at making gifs! They're very poor.

Hard to believe there was a time before gifs but then I have been doing this shit for a very long time. Anyway this was an obvious entry for my "13 Bunnies of Halloween" list, but what is there to be said? Killer Bunnies are funny, the end. Oh here is a thing I literally just learned ten seconds ago off of Wikipedia: the "Rabbit of Caerbannog" is based on one of the little scenes carved into the side of Notre Dame of a knight being scared of a rabbit, meant to exemplify cowardice. Poor guy. What a legacy! Whoever carved that was a dick, putting that guy's lamest moment in stone for all eternity. Just picture it -- that guy's all excited to go visit the big fancy church that just got built and everybody's giggling as he walks past and then he sees it. His humiliation. "I just saw something moving out of the corner of my eye," he cries, "I didn't know what the hell it was!" And then everybody laughs harder. That's the kind of thing that will haunt you every time you're in the shower, left alone with your thoughts. What bastards.
