Trigger warning here - my two childhood stories from Southern Indiana have some aspects of reality & aren’t as fun as the Bunnyman. They’re mostly sad because the people or places involved in the urban legend either had basis in a tragedy or were used because of their history of being a spooky place.

In Fairfax (VA) we have the Bunnyman. Supposedly in the 1970’s (it made the WaPo) people claimed a man dressed in a bunny suit came at them with an axe and yelling.

Seriously, this was the thing that freaked me out and sent me down a dark Google hellhole of advertisement links for dandruff products.

OMG I loved Xuxa! There was a TV show in, I think, ‘93 that I watched after school! I always wondered why it went off the air in the US. 

This is why I hate being gray! This comment should be at the top!

I also thought it said 6, and I just breezed right on by without giving it a second thought until I saw your comment!

You’ve been to my parents home, I see! It was built in the late 40’s and owned by my great aunt & uncle beforehand. I’d never seen a pink bathroom before that one...

Panama City Beach, 2003, my sophomore year of college. As we pull into the hotel parking lot we watch a shirtless white dude get handcuffed by 4 cops in broad daylight.

Don’t forget “Lucky!”

Is that when the Judge is coming through MT (or WY?)? If so, you made it pretty far... far enough for me to be scared for your liver!!

I have so many questions (that obviously I do t expect you to know/answer!)! What does the pen do? How do you get to the spleen (isn’t it under the rib cage)? What TV shows is that guy watching because my anxiety tells me I need to stop everything and binge watch in the unlikely event I’d need to know this lol!

I know it’s popular in places where their type is more likely to congregate, but I refuse to let those racist, misogynistic, idiots take complete ownership of wearing Lily. They can pry my dresses from my cold, dead fingers.

Freshman year of college. I borrowed a skirt from a friend in the dorm who went to Catholic school (why she brought her uniform...) and slutted it up, complete with a candy necklace.

That tooth really messed with my head the first time someone pointed it out (prob back when I was Googling how Katie Holmes escaped w/ Siri).

Finally kinja let me log back on!!!

I’ve got PCOS and I totally get it! In middle school I went from 63lbs in 6th grade to 140 in 8th and felt so bad about myself.

Thank you for the background. It’s craxy how we can literally be at war, but not think about it and turn it into less than background noise.

Agreed that the Chinatown Hooters actually has really delicious food!

This is why when canvassing for Democrats in my Northern VA suburb I rock a Lily Pulitzer dress. It’s really dumb, but honestly I’ve found it quite effective in places like Fairfax (where I live). People are more likely to open the door and chat than when I’m wearing jeans/leggings.

I never knew there was a connection between renal failure & Korean vets. I had family members who were stationed there, but in the 70’s & 80’s.
