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.

Sounds like a Tom & Jerry episode.

#722: A) There's a high population of humans on the earth than rabbits and no one's doing anything about it B) the rabbit didn't realize it was doing something wrong C) Eating another human is cannibalism because we know that it's wrong, a rabbit eating a plant isn't because it doesn't know any better and the plant will grow better. D) Humans cause waayyy more destruction than rabbits do, so let them "get back" at us, if that's what you call it

Three words: Geometry of Fire And wtf is with all the tree hugging? Humans have, and do, kill animals all the time. As long as you're not wasting them, what's the problem?

#723 You do understand that if the rabbits did overpopulate and eat all the plants in an area, it would pretty much kill off all life in that part of the land, including the rabbits themselves. Plants can be eaten to the root. Humans do cause destruction, true, but consider, at least some are trying to correct the damage and protect the Earth. By this, I do not mean all the individual animals. Humans are now trying to make sure that they don't hunt any more animals to extinction. Humans are trying to stop this so called 'global warming'. But rabbits don't even try. Their ruled by instinct, exactly like how you said. They don't know it's wrong. So this means, that if they ate every single planet in the world, they wouldn't know it was wrong, which is why we need to keep their population in check. Examine your logic.

YDI because animals deserve to live just as much as humans. If you spent hours making a cake and a little kid ate it when he wasn't supposed to you wouldn't shoot him. But damn 15,000 gallon pool that's huge and I'm glad it was ruined.
