› FORUM › THE LOUNGE › Life Lessons According to Moink
For anyone unfamiliar, Moink is what I call the larger than life, part potato-part gremlin creature that lives in my kitchen and vaguely resembles a rabbit. I have briefly introduced him here before but below is a list of some of the events that make up our life.
In the year and a half we’ve been together, I have:
-failed to bond him 6 times,
-had many disastrous vet visits, (including the time he humped a teddy so determinedly that he needed medical attention)
-lost him countless times ( this creature does not obey the laws of any known Universe)
-made questionable progress with his mental state
-not established that he actually is a rabbit
Life with a Moink is not always easy, and as a form of catharsis I have deigned to write some of the many life lessons and wisdoms that Moink would impart if he had opposable thumbs and the ability to write.
The title would probably be :
“The World According to Moink, and Why Everyone Else Sucks And Moink is the Best and Thats Why They All Hate Me and its not Fair, Someone Please Love Me ”
And it would sell terribly, because rabbits dont read.

Lessons in Friendship,Part 1: Trust
All potential friends are just enemies who haven’t revealed themselves yet. Always remember that.
Here is the steps to developing trust:
Step 1:
Never trust anyone, ever at any moment, of your whole life until you die.
This is it. This the only step.
Key Points to Remember:
-Become aggressive and confused if the other rabbit doesn’t trust you immediately. How dare they question your integrity.
-Be highly suspicious if they do trust you. That bunny is up to something. They aren’t following step one. Anyone who doesn’t follow the rules is untrustworthy.
Omg! This is hilarious!!! 🤣🤣🤣
*wiping tears from my eyes* 😆 😆 Oh Moink!
Hilarious! 😆
Oh Moink!!! LOL This is too funny! He sure is cute for a potato-gremlin!

Lesson in Personal Property.
If you like something, pee on it. Now you own it.
If you dont like something, also pee on it.
You should still own it, even if you don’t like it.
Key Point to Remember:
All things, including humans and other animals are rightfully yours. Pee first, ask questions later.
Okay, I just spit water all over my computer. 😆 Moink, you wild rabbit! 😆
Haha thanks guys, glad you enjoyed it !!
@Louiethebunny handful is an understatement. 😆 He had a rough start, so we try to forgive him his foibles…but some days it is harder to see the funny side 🙄
This is the content I came back for <3

Lessons in Friendship,Part 2: Establishing Hierarchy
A good friendship should be completely one-sided.
The word is friendship, and every ship needs a captain, and you are that Captain.
And the boat.
And probably the rest of the crew.
And also the sea.
It’s vital that they understand that you are the entire foundation that is holding everything together. To show them that follow these steps:
This has been a positive experience. You are winning the friendship.
I love this! What a wise potato-gremlin, Moink! I’ll be sure to remember this when I head back out into the world. Lol 😆
Moink must be really wise in the ways of how life should be run.LOL 😆 His book would be a best seller. 😉
This is hilarious, my only wish is it were for an illustrated edition, perhaps a few photos of the eloquent Moink?

Lessons in Friendship Part 3: Showing off
It’s important to show other rabbits how great you are.
Pick your strongest trait, for example, speed.
Let them know that in the event a predator attacks, you will survive, and you will leave them to die. That is a sacrifice you are willing to make.
Good work, this has been a great success, you are on the right path to making a best friend in the whole world.
LOL 😆 I love Moink’s sacrifice, very heroic.. 😆
@prince dorian the bun, I actually cant upload images to this thread ! 😕
Here’s a link to one of his insta pics though if you are particularly keen to see him : https://www.instagram.com/p/CD0eGZWlLOk/
Keep in mind thats just his external rabbit form..his true demonic shape doesnt seem to be picked up by cameras.
@Dface , have you tried adding to your profile and then using the add media to add them to the thread? Dorian did start following Moink so I can see his image, don’t worry I see past that cute bun exterior!
