Long time Looney Tunes fans may have noticed the tension and constant bickering between Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck during their relationship.

It makes sense, Looney Tunes first came out in the 1930's—that's over 90 years together!


Some of those same long-time fans may also have noticed a certain tenderness, the way they fall right in sync with one another when it's time to mess with Elmer, or the fact the pair have moved in together as of more recent iterations of the show.

Shippers—the imaginary relationship kind, not the moving and logistics kind—have had their eyes on this Bugs and Daffy dynamic for ages, but it's never been something Looney Tunes officially addressed.

Until this.

Looney Tunes dropped a quick video on their Instagram detailing some adorable interactions between the two characters—moments like dances, laughs, flirtatious glances.

The caption even called them by their unofficial ship name "Baffy."

Welp ... we suppose Baffy is official now, right?

That's how Instagram is taking it.

And the joy is so real.

The joy may be real for Bugs, Daffy and fans who shipped Baffy as a couple, but this wasn't a happy day for everyone.

In fact, some fan-made accounts took the news pretty hard.

They opted to complain in character... and it got really REALLY awkward.

And homophobic.

And angry.

And seemed to show no understanding of the show.

And at one point they may have been talking to themselves from multiple accounts?

Yeah ... Looney.

So yeah, Bugs and Daffy tried to have an official coming out moment and it got crashed by someone pretending to be Bugs' toxic, obsessive, homophobic ex.

2022 is great.

We seriously doubt "Baffy" will be making any overtly romantic appearances. Looney Tunes is known for more cheeky and playful humor, so we'll likely continue to see more of what we've seen for the last near-century.

Making it "canon" isn't likely to change the dynamic between a pair with such an established history with one another.

Cheers to Bugs and Daffy for finally being able to openly talk about what the shippers have known all along.

Baffy Forever.

Woman Recounts 'Craziest' Experience At Restaurant While Reality TV Show Was Filming There—And Yikes

There's a saying about being a "jack of all trades" that's popular for a reason: basically, you cannot be the best at everything, and if you try to be the master of juggling too many plates, you're likely to drop some of them.

TikToker Hannah Revels went out for a double date, including her husband and a couple of friends, to a restaurant that she did not disclose. It's supposed to be a nicer restaurant that was recently renovated, and it's also located in Charleston, South Carolina, so celebrity sightings are fairly common.

Most people would agree that high school is tough, from going through puberty and figuring out who you are, to trying to decide what to do for a career and where you might like to go for trade school or college, and maybe experiencing your first love.

Also, going through teen pregnancy during that time takes the high school experience to a whole other level.
