Today, I found an injured rabbit by the side of the road. I was about to take it to the local vet, when my husband picked it up and casually snapped its neck. "No rabbit's worth my money" he said, forgetting that he's been a jobless moocher for over 3 years. Pass me the goddamn divorce papers. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Underwhelming
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house to meet his parents, and now they have a dead rabbit because I sat on it. FML
Today, I found out my dad ate my pet rabbit two years ago. He said he ran away. FML
Oh no…
Today, my dog proudly brought home a rabbit he'd killed. The same rabbit that belongs to my neighbor's daughter. FML
Traditional
Today, while I was at work, my dumbass husband gave his dead rabbit a Viking funeral by sending it down the river behind our house in a crate he set on fire. It got stuck on a tree, which caught on fire, along with the field and the warehouse next to the field. The police think he did it on purpose. FML
Poor little bunny
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
Today, my cat died. But, before he could bite the dust, he left a goodbye present on my bed: a decapitated baby rabbit. FML
Today, my rabbit died. He died a painful death from ingesting too much carpet. I now have no rabbit and a patchy carpet. FML
Alas…
Today, my dad and I were in the car when a rabbit scurried across the road, just missing us. My dad turned and said to me, "Well, it's good we didn't hit him. He gets to live another day." I then looked in the rear view mirror to see the rabbit running away from the cross traffic, only to be hit by the car behind us. 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, I walked outside to see my boyfriend standing on my porch, looking confused. He explained to me that he had attached a prom proposal note to his pet rabbit, and let it inside my house to find me. We went looking for said rabbit, and found my dog halfway through eating it. FML

No need for divorce papers. Just throw him into a sarlacc pit. World: improved.

The big difference is that he didn't do it out of mercy, but selfishness and with a clear lack of empathy. And if the vet couldn't take care of it they probably would've called a wildlife rehab place.

Seriously, divorce him. He sounds like he's a waste of time, and has no heart.

to be fair the vet probably would've just put it down too, considering it's probably a wild rabbit. the husband just put it out of its misery sooner. doesn't make up for him being a useless moocher though

They said injured they said nothing about it being severely injured

you do realize rabbit are harder to take care of than you think. he saved them money also considering only one of them is working. one rabbit doesn't mean anything when rabbit can produce over a hundred offspring in a month

74- Would've meant a lot to that rabbit.

It was by the side of the road 77, so it had probably been hit and was in pain. To me, extending the pain is cruel. I think it was the right thing to do, but for the wrong reasons.

78 is a psychic vet, able to see the state of an animal from across the country and diagnose it with a thought. Was it a vet that just had an injured foot? I'm not sure, lets ask 78.

"He saved them money"? It's not his money to save, worthless lazy douchenugget. He'll get what's coming to him eventually. Hopefully a divorce and a nice eviction.

74, actually in a month are only born about 10 rabbits...if it is only one female pregnant
LyingBlood 8
really? my wannabe vet friend said hundreds of rabbits are born a month between a male and female. guess I need to tell her she is wrong. but either way. it would have died from an injury. rabbits have weak Constitutions

#148 The keyword is wannabe. Unless they're a medically certified vet their word is nothing different from Joe shmoe or Suzy Q up the road.

We do not have the whole story. They may have been fighting for months about other stuff and this pushed OP over the edge. I hate to tell anyone who says "take it to the vet" this but the vet will put it down - 100% guaranteed. They will do the same for stray cats and dogs. Even if OP footed the bill, unfortunately... they can't put it up for adoption because it's wild. Unless OP adopted it, it was dying either way. That's the reality of it all. OP framed what he said with a lot of personal information and it makes him look worse. If this post read "Today, my husband saw an injured rabbit on the side of the road and snapped it's neck instead of taking it to the vet to get put down" a lot of you would think differently.

He sounds like a ******* sociopath. Divorce, change your name and move to another state.

Heartless and lazy? Time to make him your EX-husband.

3 years?! I know times are tough, but has he even been trying?
everton99 16
They're in Texas, it's a lot easier to find a job here than anywhere else. I've had plenty of job opportunities and I'm only 21.

snap his neck
Soparot 29
Make sure you're dressed in a rabbit costume when you do snap his neck though.

Haha yes!!!

What the **** is wrong with you. I hope you are vegetarian to hate people who kill animals this much.
ericanicole1 12
Uh you can have sympathy for animals and not be vegetarian ? Not suggesting the guy should get killed but also that's not ok for him to have done that

Rabbit = divorce papers wtf? However if he hasn't tried to get a job then I understand
jaredofmo 22
Three years. If you can't find a job in that time, you really aren't trying. Most people would be happy to take a fast food or janitor position at minimum wage these days vs. making no money at all.
DoomedGemini 38
Unfortunately I know of a few people who will refuse jobs they consider below them. They also happen to only have a high school diploma, if that..so yeah. Some people are very entitled unfortunately.
rsue 14
Actually, most lower end jobs won't TAKE you if you're overqualified. I had to take my college degree OFF my application to get Target to call me back. That said, him talking about "my money" when he hasn't been working is still bullshit. But the "unemployed for three years" part is amazingly the only thing about this story that doesn't (automatically at least) make him a useless fuckweasel.
ThatHorse 15
Also some of us can't work jobs that require extended periods standing or moving heavy stuff due to permanent injuries.
gracehi 33
Exactly, 84. No doubt OP has been contemplating divorce for a long time and it was this incident that made her say say, "Yep. I am so done with this bullshit."
RogueWarrior869 23
Don't be so quick to judge in the job department. Location matters a lot there. It took me six years of actively applying and trying before I got one. And that was applying for whatever I good get, no being picky involved.

He casually snapped this rabbits neck. Make sure you get a restraining order to go with those divorce papers.

Snapping a wild animals neck isn't that big of a deal, especially in the South. Of course I would have also brought the rabbit home to cook it...

Animal cruelty is an indicator of serious mental disorders. Also if being a psychopath.

see this all the time here in Montana right now. my town has been overrun by wild rabbits(I mean 30 baby kits being born every 2 weeksON A SINGLE LOT, now multiply that by 10-20 lots that are infested) If you do not keep wild rabbits under control they will outnumber people VERY QUICKLY
acerredrum 23
Killing an animal for food is one thing, snapping the neck of the animal your wife is planning on saving while she watches because you don't want her wasting 'your' money when you haven't worked in three years is an entirely different thing.
anlong93 9
Worse, he was CASUALLY snapping the rabbit's neck. I'm surprised he didn't just toss it aside afterward, too, while asking OP what she was making for dinner.
Mathalamus 25
Well. That shocked the hell out of me. Run away. Divorce him. Probably should make sure he is observed, because that is just wrong...

I mean the fact that he hasn't worked for three years makes him a sack of shit. But a wild rabbit has a lifespan of 3 years if its a cottontail and a jackrabbit has one of 5. So I mean say what you will.
SpyroMello 29
Yeah dogs live approximately 12 years and humans approximately 69 but hey let's kill them too since they're gonna die eventually anyways!
TheSiraffe 16
Okay but dogs are useful. And humans are productive. That rabbit was also a wild animal.
rldostie 19
Some rabbits can be useful, some dogs aren't, and some people aren't productive at all. The second we decide to be okay with exterminating based on "usefulness" is the second we start sliding down a slippery slope.
JohnTheDonJuan 11
It's called population control... It's why we have hunting seasons, so we can stop wild animals from over-reproducing and infesting an area. Think whatever you'd like about it, but it's necessary. Unless you'd like to roadkill deer and rabbit and alot of other animals constantly.
Fairyjoshy 13
Yeah, the thing about population control? You should need a license to do it. I understand some states don't - which just allows the budding psychopaths like the OP's husband to practice their cruelty on animals before they graduate onto humans.
itssnotfunny 24
I'll say that rabbits can accomplish more in a lifetime than he can in.. well 3 years
