Did anyone see this bunny?

For months now I have been trying to resolve a much profound mystery: Who/What is the Energizer Bunny?

I have seen it and heard the term being used everywhere: From a movie review of the fifth Harry Potter movie to the random utterances of a girl called Sarah.

Of course, being a widely used and abused term, I did not think much about it, until one day my sister remarked something quite very deep and meaningful.

"Energizer doesn't have a bunny"

Energizer does not have a bunny? Then what is all this hoo-haa all about? I have always imagined it to be a pink bunny with wide eyes in a sports suit, which then I found out was the Duracell bunny, not the Energizer bunny.

The Energizer mascot interestingly, do not even look remotely like a bunny. It is a large- VERY large battery (especially those in KL), with eyes and a mouth, too-muscular arms and thin legs.

And one fine day, I decided to google up the name. This is what came out.



Yes, I know. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
