It's like a car wreck. It's horrifying, but I can't look away.
The smilies are concise and evocative. They excel at their job. And they deserve a better neighbor than this insane fruit. He probably doesn't mow his grass frequently enough, leaves his barking dog out all night, and watches Pan and Scan movies.

But there he is, and I can't look away.

Damn you, dancing banana!

Re: I'm mezmerized by the dancing banana

I used to have a bookmark to a site that had tons of stuff like that. Does anyone have a link?

I promise to never use them here.

Re: I'm mezmerized by the dancing banana

On a slightly serious note, it is pretty annoying. I wouldn't mind seeing it removed. For those who insist on it, it could still be linked from outside. Also, I wish we had the animated winking smiley back instead of the static one we now have.

I agree! He was a much better winker.

I bet the static guy is a cousin to the banana; they muscled ani-winker out. Planning an entire banana coup. The other smilies better keep an eye peeled.

Re: I'm mezmerized by the dancing banana

Checked out the site.....some of those bananas could definitely get a person banned. There is something hypnotic about seeing dozens of bananas dancing in unison though.

Re: I'm mezmerized by the dancing banana

Dancing Spiderman is just wrong.

It scares me that people actually spent valuable time animating all those bananas. Shouldn't they be doing something less cruel, like torturing small, cuddly animals?


Thanks for the ESC key tip -- that's new to me!

What is the code used to put these little devils into one's message? NOT that I am going to hoard it to torment DaveF should he irritate me anytime soon.

The one in the middle of that link that's just standing there sad is my favorite for some reason.

Like all the wind got taken out of the little guy's sails. Maybe I'm just cruel like that...

I'm mezmerized by the Catalina dance, but for different (obvious) reasons.

Re: I'm mezmerized by the dancing banana

Edwin -- where did you find the steamroller smilie?!? Fantastic! Maybe when he's done with banana, he could drive up a few posts and say 'hello' to Steve's dance troupe

And I'm getting married soon, so to my eyes, the dancing Catalina showed up blank. Go figure.

Re: I'm mezmerized by the dancing banana

It was on that funfilesandsmiles site. It would be interesting to see him make a visits to Steve's troupe with a short stop over "The Gloved One".

I'm not getting married so "Catalina" showed up just fine. It would be a difficult tour of duty, but if she ever needed a replacement for the pool cue I would reluctantly volunteer my services.
