Relevance To Current Events, Technology, Historical Events, Etc.
Despite the overall randomness of the strips, Bunny often involves things which may be deemed as relevant and informative. Indeed, one of the things the strip does is point out inaccuracies, irony, and hypocrisy in certain events and figures.
During the 2007 Greek forest fires, the strip "black observational humour perchance" was created, in which the orange Bunny points out the irony between the event and the recent Olympic torch lighting for the 2004 Summer Olympics, which was held in Athens. The strip was accompanied with multiple apologies for the black humor, and condolences to any losses.
The strip "perhaps someone left on the taps" points out the difference between terrorism in the United Kingdom, and the tax adjustments following it, and the same for the 2007 United Kingdom floods, questioning the definition of the "largest threat to society".

Famous quotes containing the words relevance to, relevance, current and/or historical:
“... whatever men do or know or experience can make sense only to the extent that it can be spoken about. There may be truths beyond speech, and they may be of great relevance to man in the singular, that is, to man in so far as he is not a political being, whatever else he may be. Men in the plural, that is, men in so far as they live and move and act in this world, can experience meaningfulness only because they can talk with and make sense to each other and to themselves.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
“Wherever the relevance of speech is at stake, matters become political by definition, for speech is what makes man a political being.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
“The English language may hold a more disagreeable combination of words than “The doctor will see you now.” I am willing to concede something to the phrase “Have you anything to say before the current is turned on?””
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“The past itself, as historical change continues to accelerate, has become the most surreal of subjects—making it possible ... to see a new beauty in what is vanishing.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
