HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUGS!
By Miriam Kleiman, with a shoutout to #1 Bugs fan Jason
What’s up, Doc?
Bugs Bunny debuted #OTD 1940 in the Warner Bros. cartoon A Wild Hare. That "Wascally Wabbit" went on to sell war bonds (see above), and serve as a Marine in World War II!

Bugs Bunny: Proud MARINE!
At the end of this 1943 short Bugs wears a USMC uniform. In response, the Marines made him an honorary private. He continued to rise through the ranks and is the only cartoon character to hold the rank of honorary Marine Master Sergeant!

considering the content of the actual Betty Boop cartoons the fact that she's considered a sex symbol is really funny. like here are a bunch of kooky, zany, and wacky hijinks. the person involved in them is a really hot girl. also her boyfriend is a talking dog.
