When you're chasing Gros Michels across the small country where you live, but still take time to appreciate the local cultivars to the point where your truck is full of pups of everything but Gros Michels, and you have five new friends.

While vociferously asking around for the Gros Michel, you suddenly feel your hair rising up as you turn to see a horrible looking thing running towards you calling out...."it's me Michelle, Michelle, I heard you are looking for me!" :ha:

That would be horrifying, especially here. We have Miguels and Miguelas, and even Miguel Angels, but Michel is a very uncommon name. If a Michel or Michelle answered my call, it would mean there was a grossly overweight French expat running towards the truck. I'd be booting it out of there faster than you can skin a nanner.

OMG. Banana fiend when you use the phrase "faster than you can skin a nanner" instead of "faster than you can say my name".

or when you keep saying to yourself, "self when it gets warmer...just a little warmer...i KNOW there are pups under all that mulch....self leave the pups alone under all that mulch they are warm, if they get cold they will wither away....self i told you to leave that mulch alone"....then you get up in the morning to find the mulch pulled away and see the pretty little pups peeking through and you dont speak to self again cause self didnt listen.

....if you decide to take the "I cant throw it away" thing to a new level by taking the mama corms of the 4 mats you just dug up and plant them in the undeveloped lot next store. Since they're full of buds dumping them would be "BANANACIDE", right? Then you run a 1/4" water line under the fence from the 1" water main to a 10 ft length of drip line tubing to irrig the corm clusters. Now you got an off site pup farm for those who want em.

There is so much palmetto scrub and weed trees that they wont be seen from either direction along the fence. If I hear a bulldozer start up early in the AM, someday, I'll know the lot was sold to build on and my pup farm is a gonner. Or, I could run out and show them some arrowheads I found and claim the land is an old naitive burial site.

Ain't this the dummest thing you ever heard of??? I don't dare tell the wife!

Does "bananas" refer to the subject of the discussion or the mental state of the "people" ??????

When you stand outside in the rain with the hose watering your bananas, cuz its not raining enough for your banana babies!

When you walk out every 10 minutes in 100 degree weather to check if your bananas need any water.

Lost count...if you paint your house YELLOW at your mothers request.
Lost count + 1...if you install security camera's to watch your banana plants.
Lost count + 2...if you enjoy more than just eating bananas.

If you're now parking on the street because you looked at your concrete parking pad and thought "hey, if I ripped that up, I'd have room to plant another 10 bananas!"

If you forget that your banana doesn't like being called its real name in front of other people, when you invited them to its birthday.

Not all. Any plant that I have special memories on I give a name. And so I have Balana (my new DC) and other naners with names. That B-day is a little bit exagerrated though. :waving:
