The Magnetic Fields - “Let’s Pretend We’re Bunny Rabbits”

If you knew how I long
For you now that you’re gone
You’d grow wings and fly
Home to me
Home tonight
And in the morning sun…

“LD Beghtol writes:

Let’s Pretend We’re Bunny Rabbits is a tribute to Nayland Blake as much as to Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark. Also premiered at the art gallery rooftop concert in summer 1998 [discussed on the page for The Book of Love] before recording really commenced. Nayland is famous for his bunny imagery, which Stephin Merritt was rather taken with at that time. I think it’s the saddest song Stephin has ever written, actually… all that death.

Allegedly, Blake’s use of the character of a bunny rabbit in his artwork began as a way of discussing the stereotype of homosexual male promiscuity [source]. See his [oversized bunny costume] and [Heavenly Bunny Suit].”

The Chair Trick

If you’re a woman and want to humiliate a man, invite him to watch you do this:

Stand with your toes touching a wall.
Placing one foot behind the other, take two steps back.
Have him place a chair between you and the wall.
Bend at the waist and place the top of your head against the wall.
Lift the chair.
Stand erect.

Now challenge him to do the same. If he’s like most men he’ll get stuck on step 6. The common explanation is that men’s hips are built differently; they also have proportionally bigger feet. Either way, you can easily pick his pocket while he’s struggling there.
