NOTE: Pictures from Friday’s project will be posted this coming Friday. I have a lot of really great submissions, some of which will completely blow you away! Trust me, you’ll be sorry when you see everyone else’s drawings and you don’t have one. So get cracking!
November 17th, 2008 at 7:02 am
First to post? Nice way to start my Monday mornin’. Rainy. With buttloads of work to do. Sigh. Ok, the effect is gone :/
November 17th, 2008 at 7:28 am
This reminds me of One Hundred Years of Solitude.
But where are those pictures we all MS Painted for you?!?!
November 17th, 2008 at 7:31 am
Hmmm. Foreshadowing? I think my rabbit hates me and is turning into Evil Bunny. Every time I reach in his cage to feed him he goes running by and bites me, so one of these days he’s going to get out and you’ll find me laying in a pool of blood. He never used to hate me. Sigh.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:31 am
Enrico: They’ll be posted on Friday.
November 17th, 2008 at 8:38 am
Hooray!!! The Return of Evil Bunny!!! I was beginning to think that you had forgotten about Evil Bunny.
November 17th, 2008 at 8:56 am
Awww…A Family Circus guest-starring Evil Bunny. How cute is that on a Monday morning? I wonder how Billy’s going to clean up all that blood…
November 17th, 2008 at 9:29 am
If I were a comic strip I would be Evil Bunny! I love this cute little devil-bunny!
November 17th, 2008 at 9:30 am
Sooo, is Evil Bunny wearing high heels now? I hope his purse matches them.
HUGS…
November 17th, 2008 at 9:34 am
And by the way, I want to apologize for not being around for the the past week or two. The Queen called me into her service for a mission that, at the time, was quite top secret. Posing as an Australian porn star, I was sent with the mission to infiltrate a Brazilian drug cartel that was operating on both the British and U.S. coasts.
So if you come across any DVD titles on Xtube that star Swingy McHung…well, let’s just say you might want to be sure to claim the discount.
November 17th, 2008 at 9:38 am
Damn, I already paid full price for that one.
November 17th, 2008 at 9:38 am
Hooray! I solved the mystery. But I have to clean up. Boo!
November 17th, 2008 at 9:45 am
Polt: Have you never seen rabbit tracks before? Or is it that you’ve seen more from high heels…?
November 17th, 2008 at 9:48 am
Tam: I have a code that you can use on your next purchase. Of course, I’ll have to give that to you personally…
“Excuse me, ma’am, I understand you’re having trouble with your horizontal hold…”
Bom chicka bow bow
November 17th, 2008 at 10:06 am
And, hey, I just realized this post is perfect for today, since here in Central Ohio, we hadour first ground-covering snow this morning. What better way to celebrate than to cover it with bloody bunny footprints? Brilliant!
(I hate hate hate snow!)
November 17th, 2008 at 10:08 am
Polt, if those were high-heel-tracks, the wearer had his/her/its legs tied together. So maybe the garstly deed was done in self-defense….
Or the Fashion Police killed the person, because of that sweater color?
November 17th, 2008 at 10:10 am
Brrrr. Snow sucks. I HATE winter/cold/snow, etc. with a passion. (Yeah, yeah, I know you love it Polt, you’re weird.) Its supposed to snow here all next week when I’ll be in France. Hopefully it will be melted by the time I get home.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:10 am
Dave S.: Family Circus – ha ha : )!
November 17th, 2008 at 10:11 am
You have a problem with burgundy Bernd? Or is it rust?
November 17th, 2008 at 10:12 am
Woohoo, Michelle is on-line early today.
Feeling better?
November 17th, 2008 at 10:13 am
Tam: Oh no! What if Richard Parker starts biting me?!
November 17th, 2008 at 10:14 am
Michelle M: family CIRCUS you say? Like CIRCUS, the new Britney CD that leaked last night
: (
I’m sad it leaked so early but it is pretty amazing!!
November 17th, 2008 at 10:22 am
Enrico: He may, Bun never used to bite me. Yesterday he actually leaped out of his cage for the very first time, right at me. Maybe he’s rabid. Okay, I was holding food at the time but sheesh. Keep him well fed and perhaps you can avoid my stress, I now have to distract him with my left hand while placing food with my right to avoid bites. Strangely he never bites my daughter. Waaah. He doesn’t love me anymore.
Little shit.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:25 am
That’s so sad. Maybe if you start a blog and blog about him he will be happier and stop biting you. Richard Parker likes looking at the entries that he’s in. How old is Bun?
November 17th, 2008 at 10:26 am
Tam: Maybe he doesn’t like being called a little shit.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:29 am
Or Bun
: )
November 17th, 2008 at 10:31 am
Enrico: I was thinking that same thing.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:34 am
Not everyone has the natural ability to give good pet names (like I do)
November 17th, 2008 at 10:36 am
True that. The name Richard Parker is nothing short of brilliant.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:43 am
Tam, well maybe the bun should go into the oven. Or why can’t your daughter feed the rabid rabbit?
Tam, that person was combining blue pants with a brown sweater. That’s a Fashion-don’t to me.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:50 am
Dave: If that’s all he was called when he bites me, he’d be lucky.
Enrico: He loves being called Bun (I think) although his real name is Cocodot, or Sir Bunsiat, or PITA. He is about 5 I think. I can never remember when we bought him. Someone “traded” him at the pet store for a guinea pig and threatened to release him in the wild if they didn’t take him so we aren’t really sure how old he is exactly.
Bernd: You are soooo mean.
I could never eat him even if he’s a brat. And my daughter is now in charge of feeding him although when she’s not home I kind of toss the lettuce from a great height. You are such a fashionista. 
What if the pants are blue jeans, can a brown shirt be worn then? I was just debating that last night as I hung up a brown shirt. Could I wear it with the new blue denim? Would that incite the wrath of Bernd? I was curious.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:53 am
Bun in the oven? Are you saying Tam should just get pregnant? Then her new child can become best friends with Bun and be able to feed him and get along with him swimmingly?
We could throw Tam a baby shower!
November 17th, 2008 at 11:01 am
I think what bernd’s saying is that Tam should be the surrogate parent for Bun, so Bun doesn’t have to go through the trauma of actually having to have a relationship with a female bunny and the hassles that ultimately entails. You *know* how those chick rabbits can be. I mean, did you see “Night of the Lepus”? Yeah, like that.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:03 am
Enrico: Shut your mouth.
Hell will have frozen over big time if that happened. Although I’m always up for gifts.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:06 am
Dave: Bun has been …. ummmm ….. well, lets just say he’s not up to performing for any girl bunnies. He had an appointment with the Dr. when he was younger and well, he’ll missing some parts now. Shhhh. Its a sensitive subject with boys as I understand it.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:09 am
Hey, I have a kinship with Bun! I feel all warm and fuzzy inside toward him now.
Of course, I still have my…um…equipment. There’s just no boys swimming through…
Just to, y’know…clarify.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:11 am
Haha! Well MAYBE Bun is not attracted to female bunnies anyway. Gosh Tam, way to be heterocentric!
November 17th, 2008 at 11:12 am
And Dave, if you’re looking for a date, why don’t you just tell girls that from the beginning?! I’m sure they’d be super pleased.
Unless they want kids of course….
November 17th, 2008 at 11:14 am
Enrico: I have business cards with my phone number on one side and “Shootin’ blanks” on the other.
Okay, not really.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:17 am
Speaking of (Tam’s?) bun in the oven business, it’s so weird being a college sophomore because now all the girls in my school who didn’t have babies junior/senior year of high school or freshman year of college and finally having their babies. All of my high school classmates now have a “My Baby” picture album on Facebook.
And speaking of (Dave’s…Craig’s?) equipment, my Spanish teacher taught us the word for “enlargement” today and I everyone chuckled.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:17 am
Tam, you could herd cattle, clean out stables or some such thing in a jeans/brown shirt combo, but don’t forget your cowboy boots. In bernd’s book of style jeans go with everything but not to every occasion.
Are you sure you are not suffering from Stockholm syndrome with that rabid rabbit? On top of Bun in the oven, you could use the fur for a pair of gloves to go with your jeans/brown shirt combo in the winter
. and use the feet to rub when you need an extra portion of good luck.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:18 am
Enrico: My mistake sorry, sorry. I could have a gay bunny. And I’d love him just the same.
Dave: Since you and Bun share a kinship of sort, if we ever meet, you won’t bite will you?
November 17th, 2008 at 11:23 am
Ohhhh, you are sooooo bad Bernd. LOL Well, since I no longer live on a farm, or own horses (much to my daughter’s dismay) I shall leave the brown shirt in the closet or be forced to buy some tan pants.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:29 am
Tam: Oh, I’ll bite.
Enrico: I waited till I was, like, 24 before my daughter was born. College seems way young to me.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Dave S. – isn’t Tam married? What if her husband bites you back? …… oh my…. another xtube video awaits… (though you might want to look into redtube, my bff Cindy says its the best there is)
November 17th, 2008 at 11:33 am
Dave: Just not too hard kay?
I was positively ancient, I was 30 when my daughter was born, college IS way too young and don’t even get me started on highschool or worse, middle school. ACK!!!!
November 17th, 2008 at 11:38 am
Tam, be sure to show Dave that you are not holding food in your hands when you meet him..
Dave, I so agree with you about the age to have babies.
Shouldn’t parents be able to support themselves and their offspring? So I’m pretty amazed (aka shocked) how many teenagers have babies according to Enrico.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:42 am
I guess for my generation it’s not shocking. Not only did many girls at my high school graduation sport baby bumps beneath their graduation gowns, but there were MANY children in the audience waving to their graduating parents. A few people had multiple children by graduation.
In middle school the girl used to have to leave school when she was in her third trimester (or around there I think). In high school they stayed right until they gave birth.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:47 am
Enrico: Nope, I’m single now. Not sure its your generation or your neighborhood. Its still not all that common up here, but then our teen pregnancy rate is generally lower than the US and dropping (thankfully).
Bernd: I’ll keep that in mind if we ever meet. No food in hands, got it.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:56 am
Haha. My neighborhood. Good point.
I think it’s def a combo.
I’m off to creative writing class… my prof is sick so the HEAD of the English dept is our substitute on the day I’m being workshopped! I’m so scared.
Don’t talk too much without me!
November 17th, 2008 at 11:59 am
Tam: Maybe they’re taking those Andipose weight-loss pills. Which would mean they’re not having babies, but little fatty aliens…
November 17th, 2008 at 12:00 pm
Damn. That may well be the geekiest comment I’ve ever made…
November 17th, 2008 at 12:19 pm
Tam, the last 8 years managed to reverse the trend of teen-pregnancies here in the US, so in the latest National Institutes of Health statistic it was rising again.
Dave, you mean the girls had immaculate conceptions, just from taking pills? Let’s tell that to the catholic church.
November 17th, 2008 at 12:38 pm
Tam & Enrico: Are you re-enacting a recent (or is it soon to come out) Lindsay Lohan movie?
November 17th, 2008 at 12:39 pm
Dave S.: Donna Noble! (which always seemed to be a redundant name to me)
November 17th, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Ryan R: Did I get a drawing from you yet? I can’t remember. Get on it!
(That’s what he said.)
November 17th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Wow Craig. Slave driver. Sheesh.
November 17th, 2008 at 1:23 pm
Well I just know people are gonna see all the amazing ones on friday, and want to join in the fun, but it’ll be too late since I’ll be at work and not be able to add new ones. So I’d rather get everyone’s ahead of time. (Fine, plus I’m an MSPaint plantation owner.)
Seriously, I won’t say who, but some of them are just incredible.
November 17th, 2008 at 1:23 pm
Can’t wait to see them all. It will be fun.
November 17th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
What grows on an MS Paintation? MS Paintains?
November 17th, 2008 at 1:41 pm
I can’t wait either! (I wish mine was incredible, but it’s not…)
This was an absolutely awesome idea, Craig!
November 17th, 2008 at 1:46 pm
Well, I’m pretty damn sure mine’s not incredible but it was fun to play around. MS Paintains Bernd. Good one.
November 17th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
Did Craig just offer me sex in exchange for MS Paint self-pics?
November 17th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
If he did Ryan you better jump at the chance before he changes his mind.
Get painting man. I think everyone else just got a nice thank you e-mail. Hey wait, maybe that’s just cause I’m a girl and I’m missing out on all the fun stuff. Damn.
November 17th, 2008 at 2:47 pm
a.) Mine wasn’t amazing, so now I feel bad.
b.) true, you better get on that… so we finally have proof.
November 17th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
Dave S, Tam, and Enrico: Your’s are definitely amazing! But I have to say that Michelle M has you beat. I can’t wait for you guys to see her’s! She was a professional animator after all!
Ryan R: Yes.
November 17th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
you know that coca cola is used by the cops to clean up blood from pavement. I saw dave s’s comment on family circus and it made me think of that.
November 17th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Awesome tip Joemo! I must remember that for next time…
November 17th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
I saw that on Mythbusters Joe. It didn’t work that great. Bleach I found that works best. Umm, I mean I heard it works best. Not that I’d know or anything.
And no need to be diplomatic Craig, I know it wasn’t amazing. LOL I’m sure Michelle will blow us all away with her talent.
November 17th, 2008 at 3:36 pm
haha can you tell I’m hiiiiiiiiiiigh on cold medicine. I wrote that and then thought to myself…..way to go….they’re gonna think you’re a total creepenstein.
November 17th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
Joemo: Just wait until they see your drawing
November 17th, 2008 at 4:05 pm
HAHA! I was on cold medicine when i did that too! I want a do-over!
November 17th, 2008 at 4:12 pm
I’m never getting online when medicated again!
Hmph
November 17th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
Wow…I go away and don’t get online for a few hours, we get like 60 comments, and now, after reading them all, I totally forget what the post was about to begin with!
I’ll just say that I looked all OVER xtube and couldn’t find anything with Swingy McHung. I did find a movie titled “On Her Majesty’s Sex Service: Shooting Blanks From Down Under”. Piqued my interest, it did.
HUGS…
November 17th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
Why do other people always have so much fun when they take their meds? I’m green with envy. All I ever get is sleeeepyyyyyzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
November 17th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
I usually do, but let me just say that Tylenol cold in sinus makes me fly. I can’t feel my face right now…..which is nice….but ever so often I’ll stop right in the middle of what I’m doing and go blank. It’s annoying.
November 17th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
Tam: I though luminol would still reveal blood stains after they are cleaned with bleach, but apparently it also reacts with bleach, so you can overpower the blood stains.
November 17th, 2008 at 5:05 pm
Ok…so what’s our submission deadline?? I’m having trouble customizing those subtle Northwest shades of “pasty white” and “blotchy pink” for my skin tone! Need more time! Man…this is just like being back in High School with my term paper due tomorrow!!
November 17th, 2008 at 5:06 pm
Ummm, I’ll keep that in mind Ryan, thanks for the tip.
Seems I need to get me some Tylenol Cold and Sinus.
November 17th, 2008 at 5:08 pm
::::moonwalks across the room::::::
November 17th, 2008 at 5:10 pm
Tam, but no feeding the bunny while under the influence. You could accidently forget your hand in his cage.
November 17th, 2008 at 5:27 pm
Bill: I’ll need them by Thursday afternoon. Plenty of time to perfect your masterpiece!
November 17th, 2008 at 6:42 pm
I’m safe for tonight Bernd. I made the kid risk her limbs to feed him. I could use some drugs though, headache from hell again. ARRRGGHHH!!! Advil doesn’t make me moonwalk like Joe though.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:11 pm
Craig, you should give out awards for these pics.
Like best overall and best Puntabulous related one and best cameo and stuff…
November 17th, 2008 at 7:20 pm
Hey how is everyone doing! Just wanted to let y’all know that I prob won’t be posting as much since I don’t really have a computer anymore. My house, or more my parents’, was burned down over the weekend
So no computer but I will be trying to get on as much as possible!
November 17th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
digkv, so we better not ask how your weekend was? Oh wow, I can’t even imagine losing my home, I feel for you. You make it sound like it was arson? I hope nobody was hurt and the insurance pays soon.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:30 pm
Bernd: Thanks for your concern Bernd, it was actually as a result of those danged SoCal fires. we are a state of disaster now apparently, it’s no fun at all.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:32 pm
Enrico, i’ll get the award for blondest.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:33 pm
Oh digkv. I’m so sorry. My friend’s Mom also lost her house. Glad you are safe but I know it must hurt to have lost everything.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Digkv, I assume you evacuated in time and got to take some important things with you. Still, this totally sucks. Hope you and your family find a place to stay soon.
November 17th, 2008 at 8:03 pm
Digkv: I’m really sorry to hear about the fire. That’s terrible. If you need someone to talk to, we’re here for you!
November 17th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
Thanks everyone for your support. We are all safe but didn’t get to take anything with us. Puntabulous is one of those things that I look forward to go on because it really does cheer me up to comment with you guys and read Craig’s awesome and hilarious posts, so thanks so much guys.
November 17th, 2008 at 8:34 pm
Aw, man…. look at all the fun I missed. Working sucks. I got to get me one of them office jobs (so I can comment). Or work from home and comment in my jammies and slippers.
Tam: not feeling better – worse. Ugh. Although it’s interesting watching the kids’ mucus turn colors – like the autumn leaves…
Snickerdoodle: haven’t heard the new Britney, yet. How do you feel about Xtina, by the way?
November 17th, 2008 at 8:40 pm
Digkv: Fuck. Tam just emailed me and told me to head over here. I’m really sorry. Shit.
November 17th, 2008 at 8:50 pm
Michelle: Way to make me snort out loud. Sorry you still feel like crap. Guess its not great to take a sick day when you just started huh? Hope you make it through the week. Joe can recommend some good drugs that might make the rugrats more tolerable. And Snickerdoodle? Seriously, you are brilliant.
November 17th, 2008 at 8:58 pm
Digkv: I am very happy to hear you all are safe, but I am profoundly sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family are settled as soon as possible.
November 17th, 2008 at 9:01 pm
John: Long time no see. Are you feeling better? Seems lots of sickly people lately.
November 17th, 2008 at 9:38 pm
Digkv: I am also very, very sorry to hear about your house. I wish I could give you a hug and make it all better…
November 17th, 2008 at 10:00 pm
digkv: My aunt and uncle’s house burned down about twenty years ago, but luckily they all got out alive. Still, it was a tremendous loss. Not just the material things, but the emotional toll it takes. I am truly very sorry for your loss. Just focus on everyone being alive.
BIG HUGS…..
November 17th, 2008 at 10:44 pm
digkv: I am sorry for your loss. I will do my best to send some positive energy your way. I also just made a donation to the Red Cross’s National Disaster relief fund ( http://www.redcross.org/ ). I wish you, your family, and your neighbors a rapid recovery.
November 17th, 2008 at 11:00 pm
Michelle M. – I’m a fan. She’s no Brit, but she’s good. I like her new song and I esp. like her new version of “Genie.”
November 17th, 2008 at 11:02 pm
Thank you so much for your care and kind words everyone. It really does make me feel so much better to know how kind the world is when you’re in a difficult situation. Thanks everyone: I really do feel so loved. I would also like to extend a big online hug to everyone. Thanks! Love you all.
