- ***** THE DEVILBUNNIES' FAQ *****
-
- Q. What is this group all about?
- A. The battle between the Fudds (humans who are aware of DBs and seek
- to maintain their dominance and destruction of the Earth and other
- species) and the Devilbunnies.
-
- Q. You've got to be kidding.
- A. Uh-huh. Mankind is busy raping and plundering the Earth while the
- Devilbunnies fight a desperate battle to save our planet from their
- wasteful ways.=A0 Are you just going to sit back and watch?
-
- Q. What are Devilbunnies?
- A. The Bunnies are a species dedicated to the reclamation of the earth
- for the innocent creatures that live therein. We Devilbunnies seek to
- repair the damage humans do, and to protect mother Earth. We will succeed
- because we are smarter, quicker, more innovative, and right. We shall
- overcome!
-
- Q. How did the Devilbunnies come about?
- A. How Devilbunnies acquired their remarkable intelligence and abilities is
- best left unsaid. Devilbunnies are nearly indistinguishable from our
- "normal" lapine cousins, so trying to separate the two is next to
- worthless.
-
- Q. Why so bent on erasing humanity?
- A. The Devilbunnies are well aware that humanity's trend is to end in
- the complete destruction of nature and all non-human species, and possibly
- the human species as well. Various animal diplomats have tried to reason
- with the humans (Flipper, Smokey the Bear, Hound McGruff, etc.) but to no
- avail. The only solution, unfortunately, is a complete takeover.
-
- Q. What's with all the human-flesh-eating?
- A. Well, we do have vorpal incisors, razor-sharp claws, and powerful
- bounding feet [stomp!]. Although such viciousness might be otherwise
- unwelcome, is does prove quite handy against those tricky Fudds.
-
- Q. What is the tastiest part of a Fudd?
- A. Their toes. They make great stews, ice cream, pies, casseroles, almost
- any main dish, appetizers, side dish, dessert, and so on! They're also
- handy for making keychains, paperweights, and many more useful products.
-
- Q. But if Devilbunnies have taken up the human traits of intelligence and
- flesh-eating, what's preventing them from becoming the next evil
- species?
- A. Lawyers, auditors, Encyclopedia Brittanica ads, lack of cute fur -- all
- these absolute necessities for pure evil to flourish simply are not a
- part of the lapine way.
-
- Q. Where can I learn more about the Devilbunny cause?
- A. Not many human texts are available; those there are barely cover the
- topic adequately. Nonetheless, good places to start are the Peter Rabbit
- stories, Bugs Bunny cartoon scripts, and, of course, Watership Down (in
- both book and film format).
-
- Q. What is a Fudd and how do I recognize them?
- A. Fudds are the humans walking around carrying fireaxes, smelling faintly
- of stale urine and muttering to themselves about bunnies. They are normally
- found on college campuses and like to do lots of training and spending time
- collecting various "samples". They are dedicated to thwarting the cause of
- the righteous devilbunnies and are intent on keeping their (supposed)
- control over the Earth so they can have wars whenever they want and
- wantonly destroy the planet [rufflestomp].=20
-
- Q. How can you tell when a person is a Fudd or normal?
- A. Normal people do not spend their time hunting down cute, harmless,
- furry, adorable little creatures like bunnies [wigglefluff].
-
- Q. Do all Devilbunnies kill?
- A. Not hardly! Some are dedicated to peace and seek friendlier relations
- with other races. These are cute buns who devote themselves to learning
- how to heal, spread cuteness and generally be just adorable [honest! fluff]
-
- Q. Can I be cute?
- A. Most definitely. Just try hopping, or bouncing or wiggling or giggling or
- twitching or hugging or any number of things. Its really not that hard.
- If you want lessons, almost any doe would be willing to teach you, or just
- watch kits - they're naturals.
-
- Q. Do all Devilbunnies make sense?
- A. Not always, but the temporary fooleries committed by such bunnies is
- a good price to pay when considering the alternative: allowing humans to
- proceed to the world's ultimate end.
-
- Q. Where can I find out more information?
- A. This is the Bunny version of the FAQ, containing most of the most basic
- info you should need. There is also a Fudd version, containing their side
- of the story. The Ground Rules are intended for those who want to post on
- the newsgroup. There are also several Supplements to the FAQ, containing a
- Who's Who, a discussion of technology, a history of the DBs, and several
- other interesting and informative things. There is an Index which indicates
- where to find the information contained in the FAQs and Supplements. Please
- note that this FAQ contains all of the information that you are likely to
- need in perusing the group. The Supplements (all 18 of them!) contain more
- detailed information that you might need, or just feel curious about. It's
- a lot of reading, but I've tried to cut it down into bite-sized chunks for
- you! The basic rule of thumb is:
-
- Read this FAQ. Learn it, know it, live it, love it, send its creator
- lots of money.
- Read the Fudd FAQ. Learn it, know it, live it, love it, send its
- creator even more money.
- Read the Ground Rules only if you plan to post.
- Read the Supplements if you need more information!
-
- Q. Is this information available in any other format?
- A. Yes, we also have the official alt.dbs WWW site, maintained by Snowhare.
- You can access the appendices, the archives, and lots of other stuff
- from there! The address is: http://www.devilbunnies.org
