1871

This comic is getting pulled in way too many directions. Not so very long ago we were given to understand that referring to rabbits (or hares or bunnies or lagomorphs or whatever, go on, get pedantic) in this disgusting affectedly cutesy way was stupid. Today, it seems that our harmlessly quirky old friend White Hat Guy has latched onto this as his latest whimsical scheme in what appears to be a callback to 1772 that doesn't really go anywhere. Not only that, but the teacher from 1682 is totally over rabbits, while Megan is now tremendously enthusiastic.

I've never heard a reference to this "bun" (*retches violently*) meme outside of XKCD. Is it another one of those really parochial Boston things like complaining about drones?
