Black Bunnies...

So, I’ve been debating… is ‘Black Bunny’ funnier than something like ‘Scaly Snakies’ or 'Bat Fanciers’? So far I think it is.

If you hang around internet occultism and the rush of self-published magic books, you’ll know who I mean. The “Bitterness and Dark” crowd. The types who seem to revel in half-baked mythologies that owe more to Milton than to any actual mythic material. Folks who think that authors like Ford or Grant have something serious to say about the Old Ways. Some of them are messianic, like “The Cosmic Man will enslave ya, and only us Smart, Strong, Scary people can make it…”. They’re likely to run around in black get-ups with some variation of heavy-metal or punk accessories, or else they do the Dangerous Lawyer look, in suit and tie, which makes even lawyers look like they have a wand up their colons.

You know, Black Bunnies…
