I have heard that claim about rabbits, but I also had a rabbit who loved carrots, so I don't know what to believe anymore

Grok is this true

Your rabbit might have been a rakish, screwball hero, too?

What I am reasonably sure of is that, regardless of whether rabbits enjoy carrots or not, they shouldn't eat too many of them because excess sugar can upset their tummies. Carrots should be an occasional treat (or punishment if they don't like them).

He was kind of a pick-me. "I'm not like other rabbits. All my friends are gerbils because because rabbits are too much drama."

It was kind of like… you know that one movie where the guy's explaining how to hitchhike to the girl and he's leaning back on the fence and eating a carrot? Kind of gave those vibes.

i don't think you necessarily need such a high temperature for the rice to expand.

Cool

Every day we learn that something we've all believed our entire lives is wrong and possibly harmful or even fatal for ourselves or others, and I for one think that's beautiful, and I love being alive

dudes i found another bugs bunny fact:

the word "nimrod" has become a term for someone that's an idiot. but bugs was using it sarcastically when he called elmer fudd "nimrod" because nimrod was known as a great hunter

(which elmer fudd was not).

Thumbs up

I remember being really confused about the X-Men villain Nimrod until discovering this. I wonder if he's ever had to stop and explain this to the good guys, like, "No, I'm like the Nimrod in the Bible, I'm not calling myself stupid"

Just had a great idea for the X-Men's new greatest foe: A guy called Big Dumb Worthless Idiot, whose superpower is just making everyone stop and encourage him and try to boost his confidence, and they end up giving him what he wants to make him feel better, and then as they're landing back at the mansion one of them's finally like "OH SHIT HE DID IT TO US AGAIN"
