and then I kicked a hobo

A more lively phrase to be used to ridicule one's self at the end of a poorly told story, instead of "and then I found 20 dollars"

Person 1: "So I was walking down the street and saw Sarah's dog being walked by someone else, and I couldn't figure it out for the life of me"

Person 2: "..."

Person 1: "And then I kicked a hobo...and took his 20 dollars"

Bunny Kicker

An individual who sees fit to harm those of weaker physical or mental stature. Moreover, being that bunnies are among the smallest, harmless, most defenseless creatures, Bunny Kicking is the act of hurting someone or something that could never hurt you, would never want to hurt you and is vulnerable to your abuse.

**Strong reference to the evaluative psychological question of torturing small animals.
**Implication that the above-described mean person has issues.
**Can also be used light-heartedly for the occasional mean outburst that all humans suffer from.

There was absolutely no reason for him to yell at her in front of her friends. His career is suffering, so he is taking it out on her. He's such a Bunny Kicker!
