About This Piece

"Ain't no fun when the rabbit got the gun" is the tables-turned proverb: the hunted one finally holds the power, and suddenly the game does not feel like a game anymore.

It calls out everybody who loved dishing it out — the teasing, the chasing, the upper hand — right up until the roles reversed.

The rabbit is whoever got underestimated: quiet, patient, counted out — until the day the script flipped.

Wearing it is a warning and a grin at once: remember how you moved when you thought I could not move back.

It is for the underdog who kept receipts — funny because it is true, and true because everybody has been the rabbit or the hunter.

Explore the language of street humor.
