I've not gotten any good at writing descriptions since I first made my tumblr and by god I'm not about to start now.

daily knowledge: in 1961, Mel Blanc, the original voice actor of most Looney Tunes characters (many other cartoon characters) fell into a coma following a car accident. for two weeks he laid unconscious with his wife and son by his side as any attempts to revive him had no effect, until a Bugs Bunny cartoon playing on the television in his hospital room gave the doctor treating him a new idea.

the doctor said to Blanc, still unconscious, "How are you feeling today, Bugs Bunny?" and he responded, in Bugs's voice, "Eh, just fine doc." when the doctor asked if Tweety was there, Blanc said "I tawt I taw a putty tat." soon after, Blanc regained consciousness, and recording equipment was brought into his hospital room so he could continue doing voices while in a full body cast.
