Many folks believe that this metaphor has its origin in 16th-century England, when part of the estate of Saint Peter's Cathedral in Westminster was appropriated to pay for repairs to Saint Paul's in London.

Get the Robbery mug.The mascot of The Lakeside Amusement Park in the video game series Silent Hill. A pink rabbit, with overalls and a bloody mouth, who first appears in Silent Hill 3. He is seen presumably dead whilst sitting on a bench at the amusement park. One would presume that the man or woman in the Robbie the Rabbit suit is deceased.
He then again appears as just a carnival doll in Silent Hill 4. As you peep in on Eileen, your next door neighbor, you can see him sitting on her bed. After a couple of times of checking up on her, you can see him staring and pointing at your direction.
Fortunately, you do not fight Robbie in either games, but in Silent Hill Arcade you have the chance to fight him and his dopplegangers. Robbie also has his own video, as Pyramid Head does, in which he drags around the corpses of his look-alikes.

Get the Robbie the Rabbit mug.Having a relationship with someone who is considerably older than one's self, sometimes in an effort to gain from life insurance policies of the nearly deceased.

Get the robbing the coffin mug.Robb is independant, caring, a true friend, and one that doesn't care what others think of him. Robb will tell it or you how it is without sugar-coating it. If you hate being joked with or being the butt of some jokes or having a good practical joke played on you, don't befriend a Robb. Robb's hate being confused with all the Robert's and Rob's andn Robbie's of the world.
