PROMPT: Bunnies are very inventive creatures.

They don’t follow traditional patterns, such as a single pair of legs, a single tail, a single head or a single beak. Bunnies’ ears and eyes can be different sizes, so you may see them with one eye on top and one on the bottom. Their beaks can be slightly different shapes. And they can have different numbers of legs, tails, ears and eyes.

Bunnies have two big eyes, one on top and one on the bottom. Their beaks are called “tibias.” The tibiae are used for a lot of different tasks. Bunnies have three toes, but they use them to walk rather than for walking. They have two claws that they use for climbing and for grooming. Their “feet” are actually legs.

Bunnies have a dark coat, which gives them a lovely long, fluffy coat. Bunnies have two different kinds of ears. Their long ears are called “tarsal ears,” and they help to “see” in dark places. Their short ears are called “mandibles,” and they help to “hear” in light places.

Bunnies can be afraid of snakes, so you should not let them near them. Bunnies do not like to be picked up. They are very heavy and may fall if you try to lift them. Bunnies have a very short life span. They


live for about 12 months, from April to October.

Bunnies are very smart. They will do well in school, and if they do well, they may be able to find jobs. They are also very good at using tools and so can be useful in farming. Bunnies are not very active. They only need to eat one meal per day. They need to eat about three times a day, so they don’t need to drink very much water.

Bunnies can be very aggressive, especially around humans. They are very curious, and they may try to get close to you, and this can be dangerous. Bunnies have a very short lifespan, so you should not keep them as pets.

Bunnies are very gentle creatures. If you pet them, they will go into a sleep mode, and will stay there until you get up and move them out of your hand. They will not do this if you are holding them, and they will only do this if you are touching them.

Bunnies can be trained. You can train them to do a lot of things, such as fetching food or fetching you back if you are being carried. You can train them to do tricks. You can train them to jump, and you can train them to do tricks. Bunnies have a very short life span, so you should not keep them as pets. Bunnies are very intelligent creatures. If you


have kids, you will spend an equal amount of time with the kids and the bunny. That’s exactly why I kept a couple of jumbo bunnies as pets.

Don’t play with them or handle them like a hamster. This will just break their trust of you, as they will be afraid that someone is around them at all times. If you want to say hello to a bunny, click it. It usually gets happy and acts like a squeaky wheel.


Remember to praise it with a cookie once it responds to your mouse clicks. If you do get a bunny with toothpaste on it, you will still have to clean it often.

Do your bunny’s nails have to be painted or color treated? No, regular nail trimming is sufficient. Sure they could have their nails painted to match their accessories.

Although they are very loyal, they will make their homes boring if you do not give them exciting things to do. You can also squeeze it and say “Whoa” several times. It is easy to be friends with rabbits. They are kindhearted and love to play with each other.

Editor’s Notes

It’s been a rough year, so I thought we could use some lighthearted, completely wrong bunny facts.

Generation Process

I used the last 80% words from each generation to fill the prompt for the next generation on these runs. I purposefully chose the samples with some of the strangest and most incorrect bunny facts from each generation. I increased the temperature to 1.1 to get wilder bunny facts on a rerun after a boring generation 2 came out that only generated real bunny facts. since I wasn’t getting the bunnies to return to each generation very often. As always, each horizontal line break indicates each new generation of text.

Edits

I formatted some paragraphs and quotes across the whole story for presentation.

For generation 3, I removed some text from generation 3 that started describing a youtube video that wasn’t very relevant.

For generation 4, I just used a few of the weirdest sentences I found from several samples to end the story.

Prompt came from an unused generated text that came out during my work on “Battle of the Blue-Faced Bunnies.”. It didn’t fit there, but it was very strange and interesting to me, so I used it to start this story.
