Ruthless Bunny

Ruthless Bunny is perhaps a long-forgotten figure in Daria Fandom. She was noted for extensive, sometimes novel-length fan fictions, mostly "shippers" and a willingness to stir up the volatile fan base, both on the Paperpusher's Message Board as well as in the #Daria+ IRC chat room.

Biographical Information
Ruthless Bunny first noticed Daria when it was brought to her attention by her sister, who said, "Hey, there's this new show on MTV and it's about YOU!" After watching a few episodes, she noticed parallels between characters in Daria and associates in the office culture in which she worked. She began lurking and posting on Daria message boards and began creating fan fiction.

Ruthless Bunny began her foray into fandom gently, but became opinionated and was perceived as mean by those who might have felt the stings of her pointed criticism of certain fans. Her occasional impatience with the juvenile attitudes of some of the fans finally lead her to leave the fandom. She lurks, mostly because of her husband CINCGREEN's continuing interest in the fandom. With CINCGREEN, she holds occasional Dariacons in their home in Atlanta and has hosted various Daria fans as house guests through out the years.
