Banana Wreaks Vengeance On Its Greatest Enemy: The Gorilla
To Ohio: "Police say that someone dressed up as a banana and attacked the Wireless Center's mascot, a gorilla, last week. 'I noticed a kid in the bushes. Then he just emerged, dressed up as a banana, and sprinted as fast as he could at our gorilla,' said Brandon Parham, the manager. 'The kid just speared our gorilla.' Parham and another employee witnessed the attack. 'The kid was in mid-air, flying. He just looked like a Spartan from that movie "300," except he was a banana,' added Parham." [Via]
Ugh. "Police say the person dressed up as a banana split and headed south on Pearl Road."
@Butterscotch Stalin I think there will be bunches of comments like that.
@Smitros Don't expect me to lend them a hand.
@Smitros I know you're just plantain a trap, but the urge to make puns does have a certain a-peel.
@SidAndFinancy I hope the idea bears fruit.
@Smitros If I had my way, stuff like this wouldn't even be fleegle.
@SidAndFinancy I'm sure you can foster some good ones.
@Butterscotch Stalin You're dealing with this like a real Trooper.
@Smitros I'm going to pretend I'm above making a snork-y comment to someone who messes up a reference like that.
@hman I don't mean to primate, but what's your favorite Velvet Underground album?
@Butterscotch Stalin La la la, la la la la
@SidAndFinancy Oh, I'm not one to dole out praise like that.
@hman I'm not trying to bruise your egos, I just don't get where these comments stem from.
the caption should be 'too appealing,' not 'to appealing.'
@becky@twitter I know for a fact that Strongsville, OH Fox 8's Melissa Reid is an Awl commenter, so your advice will not go unheeded.
@SidAndFinancy i wasn't picking on the awl. geesh.
Great way to punk a TV station into giving you a free commercial.
