Years ago the Washington Post ran an article about a guy who held up a gas station...by holding a banana as if it were a gun.

Well the banana improved Mr. Robber's chances of getting his loot, and it improved that gas station attendant's day.. I mean thank God it wasn't a gun!

Yeah, my first thought on this one was "anal sex," but now I don't know anymore.

I think Anna just hates bananas because they follow her around and rhyme.

That's why I was uncomfortable owning Shih-Tzus when I was a kid.

I read this as 'Barima'! I thought: "very possibly not".

Bananal sex, Nabisco? A curious mix of anal, banal and banana (though it's hard to see how those three things could ever all appear in the same sentence).

there's a banana blight, don'tcha know

Some of the recent hits to the firm's business have come from a new EU banana import regime, an E coli contamination in the US, a terrorist funding scandal, and overall increased industry costs.

This thread's premise is true of cheese and maybe chocolate, but definitely not bananas

nabisco, Wednesday, 30 January 2008 22:35 (eighteen years ago)

I know this because of collegiate experimentation with cheese to verify the hypothesis -- the worst combo idea we could come up with was dipping cheddar cheese in grape jelly, and that just kinda tasted like cheesecake. But then there was some disagreement about whether coffee counted, because coffee and cheese is a no-go

nabisco, Wednesday, 30 January 2008 22:37 (eighteen years ago)

my butthole.

kenan, Wednesday, 30 January 2008 22:48 (eighteen years ago)

today i had a really good banana walnut macrobiotic gelato (chaya calls it "m lato"). the banana made it very sweet and creamy.

Bananas are an essential addition to any lengthy bike ride.

also I rly hate bbqed bananas.

W4LTER, Wednesday, 30 January 2008 23:39 (eighteen years ago)

banana would be cooler if it was spelled bananab.

This thread's premise is true of cheese and maybe chocolate, but definitely not bananas

Some time ago I theorised that anything could be made better by adding one of chicken, chocolate or cheese to it. EVERYTHING, I was certain.

Then, a friend of mine stumped my theory: cornflakes.

Loathe them

more than life?

Hard House SugBanton (blueski), Thursday, 26 March 2009 15:54 (seventeen years ago)

Not that much. I wouldn't mind them as much if people didn't go on about how great they were all the time.

Sacco, Vanzetti, Passantino... (Tom D.), Thursday, 26 March 2009 15:55 (seventeen years ago)

My friend made me try this 'dessert' sushi that involved eel and banana. I can say with some authority now that sushi, nor eel, is not improved by the addition of a banana. Nor is banana improved by the addition of eel.

Let me be clear: Eel and banana cannot hang out together in my mouth, or anywhere near me, EVER again.

You guys, seriously...you have no idea how traumatic this experience was for my tastebuds. Why did I even put that in my mouth? Why why why?

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 6 January 2010 06:59 (sixteen years ago)

i had some kind of banana sushi in peru but there was so much weird sauce on it it didn't make much difference.

s1ocki seconds (tehresa), Wednesday, 6 January 2010 07:01 (sixteen years ago)

i can't even remember what the fish component was.

s1ocki seconds (tehresa), Wednesday, 6 January 2010 07:01 (sixteen years ago)

Ugh f my lame grammar: "neither sushi, nor eel, are improved by the addition of a banana....etc"

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 6 January 2010 07:01 (sixteen years ago)

Unfortunatley this didn't involve a whole lot of sauce, iirc.

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 6 January 2010 07:03 (sixteen years ago)

hmm. banana tempura sounds like it might be good. maybe with some vanilla ice cream

=皿= (dyao), Wednesday, 6 January 2010 07:15 (sixteen years ago)

heh... I emailed that BBC article to someone earlier. Bananas and blow: like chocolate and peanut butter, like ham and swiss... some things were meant to be together.

kenan, Wednesday, 6 January 2010 08:34 (sixteen years ago)

Bananas Becoming Extinct

Without scientific help the sterile, seedless fruit could disappear with 10 years, according to a Belgian plant pathologist.

Someone should follow up on this important story.

When did you last see a banana tree...in Belgium?

Halfway there but for you, Wednesday, 25 January 2023 17:35 (three years ago)

Take a good look, they might disguise them as waffle trees over there.
