Today, I wanted revenge on the rabbit who ate my garden's plants. When he returned, he was standing next to my brand new above-ground swimming pool. I pull out my 22. rifle and shot at it, but the bullet missed and popped a hole in my pool. 15,000 gallons of water flooded my basement. FML

Today, I heard a gunshot not too far from the house. This is not unusual, as I live way out in the boonies and hunters tend to roam the woods. What isn't normal is a stray bullet hitting my above-ground pool, which promptly split open and released a torrent of water that flooded my basement. FML
Today, while mowing my backyard, I messily discovered that a family of rabbits has been living out there in the tall grass. FML
Today, a few freshmen jumped my fence. They decided to take a dip in the pool, so I pulled out a paintball gun. I unloaded over 100 rounds, painting their backs bright yellow. It also dyed my pool yellow, and it'll apparently cost around $500 to repair. FML
Today, I wanted revenge on my neighbor, whose dog craps in my yard, so I spent a day at the dog park gathering up dog shit. I piled it up by the property line and ran over it with the mower, intending to spray his driveway and car with turds. Instead, it gummed up the mower. Now it stinks too bad to fix. FML
Today, my dog proudly brought home a rabbit he'd killed. The same rabbit that belongs to my neighbor's daughter. FML
Today, I was on my back patio talking with my husband. It got dark outside, and I saw something shuffling in the back yard. I freaked out so bad that I went to run inside, only to fly face-first into the screen door. Turns out the shuffling was a baby rabbit. FML
Today, my 6 ft snake got loose. I found it. It was in my neighbor's backyard, constricting their pet rabbit. FML
Today, I shot my boyfriend in the balls by mistake, twice. First it was a paintball gun I was using with my nephew, then it was a slingshot I use to scare away the bird who keeps eating fish from my pond. He is now sat icing his groin acting like I did it on purpose. FML
Today, I drove home on my birthday, and my mom said she'd meet me there. I was a little surprised to get home and find she wasn't there, but even more shocked to see my rabbit run over in my driveway. Turns out he'd gotten loose and my mom had run him over, panicked, and left. FML
Today, after I warned my son repeatedly that if he wanted a rabbit he had to clean and feed it, I checked on it. It wasn’t just dead, it was dead and rotting in a pool of its own pee and faeces. I yelled at him, but he just shrugged and told me rabbits are boring and he forgot it was even there. FML

Not only did you try to kill it instead of just relocating it, but you tried to justify your shit aim with 'the bullet missed' instead of 'I missed'. This one calls for a YDI unfortunately.

1) Rabbits are pests that have overpopulated suburban areas and need serious population control. 2) Nobody would have gotten their panties in such a twist if rabbit had been changed to snake.

lol @ all the liberal hippy comments about e.g. "ANIMAL KILLLER! OMGZ!" I hope every one of those commentators are vegetarians, otherwise they'd be serious hypocrites (although I wouldn't put hypocrisy past them) OP: You are plain dumb for firing a rifle in your backyard like that #688 --> bang on point about the snake. Double standards abound in this comments section.

257 pretty much sums up where I think you bunny lovers all come from.... NOT EVERYONE LIVES IN THE CITY!! And If you lived in the country you would understand the frustration from putting all that love, care and hard work into a garden and then having rabbits eat it before you can harvest it! Fences do not work they get through pretty much anything! people from the city do not understand the workings of the countryside and therefore should not get involved! You are only affected by this because you have decided the bunny is 'cute' but I bet you'd kill vermin in your house. Whoever said bunnies are different because they're pets, I can assure you wild rabbits are not the same as pets, they have a nasty bite for a start. It's like saying don't kill that rat that's carrying disease and eating (and urinating on) my food, it's the same as having a pet living in my cupboard! And relocating a rabbit does not work! I agree it was a bit daft shooting towards a pool and yes there are other ways of sorting this... I have a dog and two cats who between them happily keep rabbits away, but if he doesn't have an animal then this is the next best option.

#4 of Col. Jeff Cooper's Rules: "Be sure of your target. Know what it is, what is in line with it, and what is behind it. Never shoot at anything you have not positively identified. Be aware of your surroundings, whether on the range or in a fight. Do not assume anything. Know what you are doing." Whoops!
