If You Don't Have Anything Nice to Say... is the second studio album by post-hardcore band The Bunny the Bear, released through Victory Records on June 28, 2011. The album peaked at number 34 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart.
The album's lead single "Aisle" was independently released in December 2010, and caught the attention of Victory Records, who signed the band shortly after. The album spawned a dual single in October 2011 featuring the tracks "Ocean Floor" and "C'est Pas Si Loin", both of which were released with accompanying music videos. "Aisle" remains the band's most well-known song, accumulating over 1.02 million views on YouTube as of December 2015.
The tracks "Prelude to Pregnancy" and "Lust Touch Seed" were re-recorded from the band's 2010 debut album The Bunny The Bear.
