Title: Hello all. Greetings from THC HOC Board!
Post by: DeathOfReligion on July 14, 2008, 08:02:54 AM
Hello HA members. I am a regular poster at The History Channel's "History Of Christianity" board, which if you've never been there, is more of a general religion and philosophy discussion board, although some real history does get discussed.

Trying out your board on the suggestion of a visitor there, "Promethium147-andthensome." Dunno what his name here is.

I live in the Seattle area, am a strong Atheist, a registered Democrat, and an unregistered white boy.

What the hell is with the dancing bananna smiley?

Dancing banana is cool, is it not?  :banna:

I believe the evolution of the dancing banana went something like this:

The flash animation with the Peanut Butter Jelly Time song (http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/banana)

It was then shown on a Family Guy episode, when Brian tries to cheer up Peter. Unfortunately, all the decent videos of this have been removed.

The Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dancing_Banana)has a good discussion of all things dancing banana. :D

Now I feel foolish.

Wait are you talking about " :banna: _______ :banna: "? (I can be a bit slow online...) If so then, I didn't think of it that way... nice. Let the creativity never stop!

I followed the God Gene ad previously, from overwhelming morbid curiosity. What a concept - map my genome with a written test, eh?

It is bizarre, of course - and crude. Some Marketing Data Collection scheme, no doubt.

Genuine Apologies, susangail - I confused you with an older person, and began slinging various sexual innuendos...

...and a few out the other.

OH HOW can I stifle this Creative Urge gone bad?

Don't even worry about it. I totally didn't get it and I'm not even going to try to. Ignorance can be bliss  :D
