A Bunny With a Pancake on Its Head
Opinion Journal Online ^ | 11-26-04 | James Taranto

Posted on 11/27/2004 7:32:10 AM PST by Seattle Conservative

Announcing ApologiesAccepted.com, which styles itself the world's answer to SorryEverybody.com, featuring words of forgiveness from Bush-haters in Holland, Canada, South Korea, Australia and other countries. Somehow this crowd doesn't seem quite as pathetic as the SorryEverybody folks, though it may be that we judge foreigners by a lower standard. Actually, there's at least one dissenting photo, showing the top half of some guy's head with the following message beneath:

What actually makes Kerry so much better than Bush? We know about Bush now, and we know, what to expect. The majority of the American people has made their decision and I accept that. Without criticizing the people who voted for Bush. So, to me, this site looks like a bad loser site!

-snip-

Two others we liked were an illiterate communist and a bunny with a pancake on its head.

Haven't seen the bunny posted in a few days and when I ran across this, with a link to the picture of the bunny, it made me chuckle and I had to post it. To see pic/post here's the link to apologiesaccepted site: http://www.apologiesaccepted.com/upload/1100433767jason%5c%27s%20pics%20208.jpg

I saw this as well. Although I've seen that Bunny posted on a number of threads, can someone please explain the derivation?

And yes, I've been around long enough to know what a "ping" is, what "hugh" means, about the shower reference, and that moose, cheese and sister thing.

"Oh, the hugh manatee" was my favorite, BTW.

The bunny with a pancake on its head (and the monkey humping a robot) are posted in response to threads that make no sense.

The captions on the graphics say, "I have no idea what you're talking about, so here's a bunny with a pancake on its head," and, "This thread makes no sense, so here's a picture of a monkey humping a robot."

It's just silliness responding to silliness.

In the Politics & Religion section at Ferrarichat.com, I've used that image a few times to counter some of the DU troll types.

It's always a big hit! :)

But I still don't know what "hugh" is, other than a misspelling of "huge." :(

That's what I'm wondering, myself.

While reading the same article, I had to laugh when I read this one (after I wretched):
Rather Suspicious

Yesterday's New York Times published this letter to the editor from Kathleen Davidman of New York:
We will all mourn when Dan Rather steps down from the "CBS Evening News" in March. He has been the most exciting, informed anchor and reporter since the 1960's, when I first remember seeing him.

So very handsome and energetic, a bit Li'l Abnerlike, he seemed an obvious star from the beginning. His passionate coverage at the political conventions (I saw him roughed up at one) and his way of getting the news, sometimes visibly and humanly feeling it, were unique. . . .

I'll miss Mr. Rather's principled stands on issues like the eulogies for American service members killed in Iraq. That his popularity waned over the years shows, if we needed any directive, how poor taste has become dominant.
Well, we admire a good prank as much as anyone. Congratulations to Davidman for gulling the Times' editors into publishing such an implausible letter.

Yes, too bad the NYT doesnt' have a Barf Alert (of course, if they did, they'd have to put it next to almost every letter and article.

I enjoy the Best of the Web - read it almost every day. James Taranto and the others compiling it have a great sense of humor (IMHO).
