Wow, only half of those are sock puppets of mine. This place is more popular than I'd thought.

Also, Hi n00bs! Don't forget to check out #bunnies!

Yay! Happy Birthday! Oh, crap, I was going on autopilot, I guess.

Welcome!

Welcome new bunnies!

Wow, that's a lot of people!

(Don't worry, it's not all-bunnies-all-the-time. Most days, anyway. There are exceptions.)
posted by mudpuppie 20 January | 14:23
I would too, Melismata. Didn't want to put too much pressure on, though. After all, they haven't gone through the hazing process yet. :D
posted by gaspode 20 January | 14:24
Wow! The bunnies are multiplying like- how's that saying go, again?

Welcome, new bunnies! Glad to have y'all aboard.

After all, they haven't gone through the hazing process yet.

Oh, that's right.

Welcome! It's nice in here. And seconding mudpuppie: it's only a little bunny-riffic, so if the cute-cuddly bit gives you pause, no need.

Let me be the first to say, thank you for the warm welcome. I would like to use this opportunity to confess something: I have two bunnies. I got them for my daughter for her birthday (I know, dumbest idea ever) from the pound (OK, I guess I'm not a total jerk) but after they completely destroyed my vegetable garden and then proceeded to attempt to eat the porch (of my rented flat), I have kept them confined to a hutch, which, as someone who in my past used to distribute PETA literature (I know, I know), is quite embarrassing. Therefore I would like to use this platform to solicit your ideas for an easy-to-make bunny-friendlier enclosure. I have rudimentary carpentry skills and a basic set of tools and I'd like to include my kid in building something. Suggestions anyone?
posted by serazin 20 January | 14:31
Welcome, y'all. Great to see so many names of people that I recognize from that other place. Now don't shit on our lawn! We work hard to keep this place nice and poop free, ya dig?

Hi, new people.
posted by Obscure Reference 20 January | 15:08
Well hello to you! May I offer a thank-you bunny in return for the lovely welcome?

(I would have used the "click-on-image" format, but I don't know how to make the pretty triple parallel lines. Perhaps I missed it in the FAQ. Help, please?)

Monkeytoes - Look at the top black bar on the page - you must have "images off", right? If you just embed the picture in-line using the "image" button at the bottom of the commenting box, the "click on image" format is done automagically for people who have "images off". People who have "images on" will just see the image.

New bunnies! Yeah!
posted by initapplette 20 January | 16:06
Hi! What would you say to a little drink?
posted by crush-onastick 20 January | 16:08
serazin - I have no bunny-friendly enclosure ideas (our only bunny was free-range indoor) but you are welcome to post the question as a standalone post. I'm sure some folks would rise to that DIY challenge!

Welcome all. That's an impressive number of new users!

Aha! That explains the photo threads that didn't have photos in them.

Now I see the pretty pictures.

WHUFFLE TIME!

I know what crush would say to a little drink!

Personally, I'd say: "Hello, little drink. You are little, but not tiny, like the beers I enjoy."

WELCOME NEW MEMBERS. WE'LL TRY TO BE NICE. I AM NOT SHOUTING, JUST SPEAKING LOUDLY.

Too many old people in this thread! C'mon folx, step up!

And whuffles, too!
posted by Melismata 20 January | 16:31
Well, I'm in for a confusin' now, because quite often the person who replies to my bunny posts is monkeybutter, and now we have monkeytoes as well.

But the more monkeys the better, particularly ones who post bunny pictures.

I didn't sign up this holiday season but I decided to hang out around here more recently. So I'm totally horning in on this party and stealing someone else's newbie badge, with "betony" crossed out and "fleacircus" Sharpie'd in.

O HAI

Next week, I think I'll sign up for tapdancing lessons.

I have a cold and I am still too pissed off by last night's Mass. election to be civil.

Welcome, though.

Madamina...I first read that as "I think I'll sign up for Lapdancing lessons"

I'll tell him you said so. He's awfully spry for a 19-year-old.

Ardiril. . . .did you really a/s/l us? Because, if you did, that is a MeCha first, as far as I can remember!
posted by danf 20 January | 21:42
I'm fine with plenty of pictures of adorable bunnies. Frankly, that's a large part of metachat's appeal. Who doesn't love bunnies???? Lame people, that's who.

I'm only a little bit interesting, but I have an awesome tuxedo cat names James Bond, and he's hilarious.

Welcome newbies! Make yourselves at home, help yourself to the fridge (yeah, that green stuff in the tupperware container? No idea what it is, too scared to open it to throw it out - I'd stay away from that if I were you), find yourself a comfy seat and let's play.
