this makes me very angry. This guy should cry himself to sleep everynight for being a bag.
It's not so much cruelty to animals, I mean, they do tend to get eaten, it's that he's preying on other peoples values for a quick buck, at the expense of a poor rabbit.

| | | If it weren't for GB somantics....well I'll just shut up now in my anger for this person.
GGGHHHAAAAAA, I can't resist. That person is the biggest *** I have ever heard. I could go into detail, but then I would be banned. |

| | | This guy is smart, even though the purpose of the site is completely stupid. And I bet he makes some coin with that. |

| | | Is this a real page, or just a spoof/ploy to make money? It seems a little far fetched. Would you eat a bunny you found under your house after you kept it for months at a time?

| | | To me it looks more like a mix of internet spoof and creative merchandizing. I dunno, maybe I'm just cold-hearted or skeptical. It just seems a little preposterous to me...

| | | An extortion plan involving not someone else's pet, but his own. How cunning. |

| | | Hes not honestly going to eat the bunny. He is just playing a joke knowing that people are dumb enough to believe a man would acutualy eat a pet. I bet most of the people who bought a book even knew it was a hoax, just thinking it was funny and wanting to see what the book is about.

I would also think it is a fake. And if not - well, there are strange people everywhere. |

| | | This sort of thing got started when National Lampoon did a cover (in January, 1973) that featured a worried dog with a gun to his head, with the caption, "If You Don't Buy This Magazine, We'll Kill This Dog". It has appeared repeatedly in many different forms since then. |

I'd never - even if the book was good and all that - buy from something like that.
I dont trust it and I don't like the methods. |

| | This site has been there for quite some time now. It even made the Dutch six o'clock news a few weeks back. From what I gather, the guy's actually making some bucks.
You gotta wonder, what's next? Some guy that doesn't like his wife? "Pay up or I'll waste her!"
