Bunny Suicides #2
Return of the Bunny Suicides
Return of the Bunny Suicides follows over one hundred bunnies as they find ever more bizarre ways to end their fuzzy little existences. From swimming with nibbly fishes, to hiding under an elephant’s footstool, to getting on the sharp end of a Venetian gondola—no stone goes unturned (or undropped, or uncatapulted) in the twisted little creatures’ next installment.Illustrated in a spare and simple style, Return of the Bunny Suicides is a collection of hilarious and outrageous cartoons that will appeal to anyone in touch with their evil side.

I got it! Another doses of where-are-your-meds-freak kind of humor. This is just as good as its predecessor, The Book of Bunny Suicides, which I reviewed here. (Although, I found this one a bit creepier.) These bunnies imagined some really weird ways of taking their own lives. Weird and exhausting ways.
And complicated. Sometimes, even more complicated than life itself.
And disturbing. This must be painful as hell.
I will never look at grated cheese the same way again.
One can't help but to wonder what happened to those little and troubled souls that they felt life was just too much. And here I am, laughing at their creative ways of killing themselves. I feel horrible. I'm smiling AND I feel horrible.

ی کتاب طنز که گاه مبتکارانه و گاه احمقانه روش های خودکشی خرگوشی رو نشون میده

Book 2!
My students love these books because there is no writing, just pictures. They like to look through them and try to figure out what the author was trying to say.

شاید کمتر کسی برای خندوندن مخاطب سراغ ایده ی مرگ و خودکشی بره
طبیعتن نباید اصلن خنده دار باشه
ولی وقتی ماجراهای یه خرگوش کوچولویی رو دنبال می کنید که برای کندن از این دنیا این همه راه های مبتکرانه و پیچیده رو امتحان می کنه خنده به لب هاتون می یاد
خوندن که نه ! ولی تماشا کردن این مجموعه ی سه جلدی خالی از لطف نیست
....
قسمتی از تلاش های ایشون برای مردن

فارغ از خشونت خیلی دردناک و زیاد برخی از طرح ها، برای من هیچ کدوم به اندازه ی اونایی که ارجاع داشتن به فیلم های دکتر استرنج لاو، ارباب حلقه ها و ترمیناتور جذاب نبود.
March 18, 2016
ارجاعات این شماره به فیلم ها و کتاب ها بیشتر شده بود (ترمیناتور، هری پاتر، دو ارجاع به ارباب حلقه ها، بیگانه، گیوم تل)
قبلی فقط به جنگ ستارگان و پیشتازان فضا ارجاع داشت، تا جایی که یادم مونده.

What i learned from this book. Well, i learned that the reason we think of bunnies as stupid - as in "dumb bunnies" - is that the all the bright ones are dead at their own ingenious hands. These are the mute, cunning, inexplicable - & i would say passionless except of course they are passionately devoted to elaborate departure - offspring of Gorey & MacGyver.

Sometimes the world is just too much... and when that happens you just have to pour pepper into the flaming vagina in the sky, or order a copy of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and wait under the mail-slot for delivery, or tell the Terminator you are Sarah Conner, or roll yourself up into a ball to be used as a trebuchet... at least that's how these plucky, inventive little bunnies handle themselves when at the end of their rope.
Warning: do not read this book for the first time with your best friend in a B&N cafe near exam time unless you want all the studious little learners to glare at you incessantly because you're giggling too loud :)

Oh, these are so funny. I’m such a stickler for reading books in order that I’m glad that I read the first one and then this one, even though it really doesn’t matter with these books. I wish there was some sort of daily comic I could get of Andy Riley’s suicidal bunnies.
My favorites were Learn to Juggle in 6 Minutes, the Olympics one, the DVD tray and mismatch Sarah Connor and lemmings were great too. Oh, and after the 3rd viewing trying to figure it out, I finally got the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire one (yes, this is an old book) and it’s very, very funny as well.
You have to have a warped and black sense of humor to enjoy these, and I do.

How gruesome! This was so tragically funny, and I loved the movie references such as The Lord of The Rings! The illustrations are too cute, which makes it even more sadistic! I should read the first one. xD
Pick it up, give it a go and enjoy! ^_^

4,5/5. A little less funny, very little, then the original Bunny Suicides, some cartoons remind me of old one, and some are repetitive in this book itself. It is still funny an absurd. Start with the original and if you like it and still want more then this one does the job well!

More of adorably morbid and inventive delights, just as succinctly presented as the first volume.

Idk if it even counts as a book, but I loved it. I mean... it's horrible. The author must either be a masochist or have seriously bad taste in humour, but I loved it.

In this deep, meaningful, and poignant piece of literature you will find rabbits doing away with themselves in a variety of twisted and amusing ways. You will never view leporine suicide the same after this groundbreak series opens your eyes.

anche se continua a dispiacermi per tutti quei coniglietti suicidi, questa volta in un paio d'occasioni ho riso davvero tanto.. Tipo questa:

این کتاب از سری کتاب هایی هست که بدون هیچ نوشته ای حول نقاشی هایی از جریان خودکشی خرگوشی ساخته شده و خیلی بانمک هست و برای من جالب بود

Ok, what to write about this little treasure? The more I think about it, the more I realise how ingenious and wonderful these mini-stories are. I don't know though, if Andy Riley meant this to be taken so seriously. It's also just super funny and makes all my laughing nerves tickle. And it's super clever too. And deep. And actually quite complex. Wow, so hard to decide!

Those bunnies really want to die...
There's a fair bit of creativity in this collection, although a few rely on the same gags over and over (a lot of slicing and dicing, and death by power tools). But some are very creative; there are a couple full on Rube Goldberg devices, and one has to admire the sheer dedication they apply to their demises.
It's mostly wordless, and takes maybe 15 minutes to go through, but it did elicit one or two chuckles, and a profound sense of guilt at finding humor in the deaths. It's not a complex concept and the artwork has a simplistic charm to it, and a couple are like Where's Waldos of death-craving rabbits. There are much worse ways to spend your time.
