Bun Alert System

766 readers
35 users here now

A place to alert others/be alerted of bun sightings.

The smoler the bun the better, please see this for an explanation: https://xkcd.com/1682/

RULES:

  1. Be kind to each other. Buns are cute, cuddly, and nice. Be like buns.

  2. Posts should be images of buns doing bun things. Bun things include eating, chilling, playing, hopping, and sleeping. You wouldn't want to be alerted of a capybara doing calculus through the Bun Alert System, would you? For other bun discussion, see some other communities below.

  3. Images should be of living, healthy, happy buns. The Bun Alert System exists to bring smiles to bun enjoyers around the world, not sour frowns.

  4. Keep it suitable for all bun enjoyers. Nothing too freaky or NSFW.

  5. With respect to this community, moderators are the smolest buns. Please shoot us a message if you have questions or concerns!

Better quality: It is Alec Guinness playing Obi Wan Kenobi from Star Wars IV: A New Hope saying "Now, that's a name I've not heard in a long time." He is in the desert of Tatooine surrounded by pale cliffs and sand etc.

GPT 4o: This is not actually a bug! It is a black guinea pig dressed in a bee costume. The costume includes black and yellow stripes, small wings, and two antennae with yellow fuzzy tips, making it resemble a bumblebee. It's a cute and creative outfit for the guinea pig!
