Bun Alert System

1108 readers
90 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!

Could you unreserve at least 1 right for me, please?

I can offer you $20 off your bid price (should you win) on that cookie I recently posted

In addition to my aforementioned offer?

Sorry, minimum bid is $50, with $5 increments. Also, please post bids on the auction listing for better tracking.

[–] qrstuv@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You never said there was a reserve.

[–] pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's on the listing description!

Quoth the body text:

Bidding starts at $50, place bids in increments of $5. Bidding closes in 24 hours from time of posting.

I don't see anything about a reserve. This seems like a scam.

[–] pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You saw my license number, you really think I'd risk it all to scam you?

[–] qrstuv@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Can you unreserve it? So I can afford it?

[–] pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 month ago

And reject the current highest bid? That's how I'll really lose my license!
