Bunnytuna

Seriously, I read this sign today while passing through a small rural Georgia community. It was sitting right there just off the left side of the small two lane rural road in an unincorporated area. A wide rectangular white sign mounted on 2, 4x4 post with the word Bunnytuna displayed on it with large dark blue or maybe black letters. Yup, it happened just like that.

My first throught was, what the hell is a bunnytuna? Could I have read it wrong or was it possibly a business, a marketing scheme, a nickname for two, maybe three lovers, who knows, but in the end, who really cares? I continued down the road at times questioning what I had seen but I noticed that it made me smile, even laugh at times. As a lover of words I started to feel something for the word bunnytuna. The more I said bunnytuna out loud, the more I smiled and thought after a few minutes that bunnytuna might just be the best word ever. At first glance the word bunnytuna conjures up images of something fluffy and cute combined with a fast muscly fish that most know either seared or raw with wasabi and soy sauce.

If you’ve read this far you likely have already said the word bunnytuna to yourself either mentally or even better out loud. Some analytic types who read this might even go as far as to Google it and others may pass it off as a stupid entry. But in the end, it made me smile and I hope bunnytuna makes you smile too.

The following sentences using the word bunnytuna are a special free bonus to the readers who have made it this far.

1. Oh my dearest Bunnytuna, you make my heart warm everytime I see you.

2. I would like to order the bunnytuna with mashed potatoes and a side salad.

3. Come by the freak show tonight to witness the bunnytuna, the half rabbit half fish phenomenon that you’ll have to see to believe. As a bonus, you’ll also get to see the bearded lady holding the two headed snake.

4. Bunnytuna! Now that I have your attention I’d like to sell you a car.

5. The Bunnytuna roll special tonight is a puff of white cabbage on top of yellow tale tuna sashimi for $15.99.

Anyone else who enjoyed this post can offer up a sentence of their own bunnytuna in the comments and I will send you a special untethered bunnytuna thank you.
