Nimrod is a biblical name, he was a mighty hunter. We only associate it with "dumbass" because Bugs Bunny sarcastically called Elmer Fudd "Nimrod" in an early cartoon.

And now it means dipshit forever, that's the power of a trickster god like Bugs.

Rabbits will gladly eat carrots, but they have a high sugar content that makes them unsuitable for regular consumption.

We associate rabbits with carrots because Bugs Bunny ate one while parodying a character from the 1934 movie It Happened One Night.

Bugs Bunny has an impressive ability to warp our understanding of the world around us.

Story goes, he woke Mel Blanc from a coma. He was unresponsive for a couple of weeks, until a doctor addressed Bugs instead of Mel. They say Mel responded as Bugs and woke up.

If I was in a coma and someone said "bugs" at me I'd wake up too. Get them off me!

In the dead of night, a shimmewing wight
Gweam of a bwade, and the debil is paid
I'm a wabbit swayer, a guitar pwayer
With a nasty habit, KIWWL DA WABBIT

My favorite explanation of Bugs Bunny's memetic potential is this video parodying Metal Gear Solid.

No one outside of a worker's union has the right to blast a union worker for being a wage cuck

I know for a fact from that photo and one paragraph blurb that I haven't worked a day in my life as hard as his easiest day

Chilling. Imagine being a miner and having death as a reasonable danger at work. Going down into the mine every day, being afraid of being crushed, suffocating, drowning, exploding and seeking music as a form of relief, especially this song. IT really shows the importance or unions.

It's why they weren't afraid to go to open war with mine owners and the US government, who bombed them in the first use of aircraft to bomb "combatants" by the US military
