Customer Reviews

A review for the mature and light-hearted

First of all, anyone who would take this seriously and have the grace to complain about it over the internet is not very intelligent. Also, can't you people find a sense of humor? Did the doctor remove it? Sure, Savetoby may be "illegal" or a "scam" but who was dumb enough to fall for it? The immature people who are taking the time to bash it. Grow up. I personally think it's hilarious and enjoy suspending my disbelief that one day indeed these monsterous human beings will cook that sweet innocent bunny rabbit, unless someone has the good grace to donate. You know, life is supposed to be funny, sometimes.

One Word....... LEGENDARY

This should go down in history as one of the most legendary ideas ever conceived. Who cares if the author makes money out of it, we pay comedians money to see them and this guy is doing the same thing, making us laugh. Its amazing at how sad some people can be to kick up such a fuss about this kinda thing.... ITS A JOKE and a very funny one, you should most certainly buy the book just to read the hate mail alone even though there is a small snippit on the website

Fools!

Oh, they still have the bunny. Not only do they still have the bunny, they are big fans of the bunny. Toby is a minor celebrity - in keeping with the making of this quite brilliant joke into a cause celebre of the idiotcratsia - in his neighborhood. I attend the same university wherat dwell both Toby himself and the progenitors of this ingenious device whereby fools and their dignity are swiftly parted. They will not kill the bunny; they are good folks. Also, they made bank. You who have writ your opposition on moral grounds: you are the cause for the decline of the West. Congratulations on your role in the intellectual bankruptcy of our civilization. Great job.

Hilarious book

This book is so funny! I noticed that the Phat Phree is thanked in the acknowledgments, so maybe that's why, because they are hilarious--they wrote "Look at My Striped Shirt!" and a lot of other great stuff (check out their website). Anyway, I'm getting this book for all my lame vegan friends this Christmas.

Funny stuff

I personally think these people are hilarous, and most of the people that are buying the book and other "Save Toby" stuff also think it's hilarious. They aren't buying the stuff because they really fear that a helpless rabbit is facing death-by-oven. Everyone that really thinks that it is real needs to CALM THE HELL DOWN. I'll buy the book, simply because the people that started this are geniuses. Call it a "scam" if you will, but it's not. It's just dark humor. Now go watch Life Aquatic.
