It's a funny way to celebrate Easter; commemorating the death and resurrection of Jesus by telling our children a giant bunny rabbit left chocolate eggs in the night.

Now, I wonder why we're fücked up as a race?

Where do you get this shît from? Why those two things? Why not "a goldfish left Lincoln Logs in your sock drawer"? As long as we're making shît up, go hog wild. At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back crawling across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

"Look mummy, I woke up today and there was a Lincoln Log in me sock drawer!"

"That's the story of Jesus!"

Who comes up with this shît? I've read the Bible, I can't find the words "bunny" or "chocolate" anywhere in that fücking book. Do you all have different books of the Bible than I do?

give me chocolate and bunnies any time but go away with that Jesus.

long live the great pumpkin..

I didn't think it would take long.

Where the fück is Gidea anyway?

Maybe chocolate eggs were considered more acceptable than hiding bits of poor lil' Jesus.

"Look mommy, I got a toe !"

It's just a fertility thing, just as no-one ever saw a Christmas Tree next to Jesus' little crib (if there even ever was a crib - not in the bible either).

I just got me some chocolate for on the way to Paris either way

(And I prefer Greek Easter. An entire lamb... Yummy...)

I believe the chocolate egg is a reference to the shape of the stone that was found rolled away from the entrance to Jesus' tomb when everyone went hopping around going "He is risen!" etc...

Although it was probably not shaped anything like an egg, we won't let that get in the way of a little artistic license, eh?

And then of course it's an obvious step that the egg would become chocolate, and what with it being spring and all the eggs are hatching and out come little chickens.

If we follow that road a little bit further, what else comes out in spring? Lots of little fwuffy bunny wabbits. Kids like that, and when it comes to The Jeebus it's good to start 'em young.

See? It's all perfectly logical .

Oh, all of a sudden I realise we have hares, not rabbits as easter thingies, so something must've gone wrong when it crossed the canal

Wow, ain't that your darkestest yet or what ?

I was a sunday school teacher for 5 years...
I have no IDEA about the chocolate egg but the egg itself,
represents the trinity = three-in-one.

my hubby tells me choc. eggs are a big thing in ire. We over-do every holiday here so it's mass candy, stuffed animals, squirt guns, etc. etc. what ever you can sell for the basket we will push it down your throat.
my kids traditionally get dvd's and the boy gets board shorts and the girls get bikini's... i work in dental so i am not big on the candy

Yeah, I don't blame you. He's cute...







... BUT HE'S GOT BIRD FLU!!

See I wasn't frightened without reason

It will all be about guilt at some point I'm sure - or a mish mash of what "they" want us to think

Danke...and it is a rip off too - kind of fits

Ah Easter!

The annual celebration of when, 2000 years ago, some poor sod got nailed to a tree for being nice to people for a change!

The only "people" who will be celebrating are the Chocolate makers and, hopefully, the Recycling Companies

Knew You'd Be Pleased.....

A quote from season 7 I guess? whilst the boys were in prison?

I love the two bags of flour gag - 1 bag = flour 2 bags = flours

What am I missing with that programme!?

Is it a man-thing?
