I can't believe the amount of rabbit information I'm picking up here in the SA's Greatest Sagas thread. What type of rabbit is essentially the pit bull of rabbits. Like where owners swear it's the "nanny bun" and it goes off and mauls other rabbits to death all the time?

Nothing, rabbit aggressiveness is largely determined by the situation and individual personalities.

Those giant bunnies are the best, a roomie of a friend had one named Eugene (after Eugene Hütz) and visiting with him was always fun. Super chill, but he did make a mess. He also struck fear into the heart of any cat that looked upon him for some reason.

They have fantastic personalities. Flemish Giants have bad hearts and Checkered Giants almost universally develop megacolon, but if you do some breed research you'll be fine. I think French Lops, English Lops, New Zealands, and some of the other 10-12 lb breeds are supposed to be pretty healthy.

One nice thing about rabbits is that they tend to be less inbred than dogs, and their behavior is influenced by their breed rather than determined.

The only rabbit breed I will warn people off getting entirely is the Belgian Hare, which require some very specialized knowledge.

Taking the term "Koopaling" to a whole new level since 2016.
What makes a Belgian Hare require specialized knowledge? Are they particular about their diet or more prone to disease? Are they just foul tempered and bitey?

Oh you loving piece of poo poo Wojtek how dare you. Come in here whining for sympathy why don't you tell people the real reason you don't have any time?

For anyone who feels sorry for this rear end in a top hat he plays WoW a good 7-10 hours a day everyday. When his first kid was born, like literally crowning out of his wife's vagina, he had his laptop in the hospital and started bitching about the latency and got kicked from the raid because the raid leader couldn't believe he was missing his kid's birth. Not a single word of that is an exaggeration.

He used to play mainly with Goon Squad but he just server transferred because we weren't serious enough. How often do you actually raid a night now Woj, four hours I think you said?

gently caress you. Those poor poor dogs. You are a terrible person and you should feel bad. And you should feel bad for neglecting your kids too but I'm sure you don't.

I worked for an animal shelter for 10 years and people like you make me sick to my stomach.

I hope every time you find a toy they left behind or a stray dog hair you remember you had two animals that loved you unconditionally and you were their world. And you gave that up for purple pixels in a video game. And I hope you understand that it is incredibly traumatic for dogs to be rehomed no matter how great the rescue is and all they know now is they are sad and afraid and they want you to come get them.
