Somebody set a reminder to make sure this person says “rabbit rabbit” next January 1. We don’t need another year like this one.
ok, I have to address the elephant in the room: is the bad image quality intentional (part of the joke) or not or what is going on here?

(The post is still showing the pixelated image for me)
