Sender-Inner Shelley (who obviously just escaped from Goldenbrook sanitarium) wrote to say "This was a piece of banana I cut for my daughter. I just couldn’t feed it to her though. See why?"

Yes.

Yes Shelley, we do. [shifty eyes]

  2. Winglessfae says:

    OMG. I would have squealed and then done the same thing… what a sweet glamour shot you’ve got there. I don’t think I could have fed him to someone either! just toooooo precious…..and as per usual, totally redonk.

  3. that makes me happy.

  4. Sunstorm says:

    OMG!!!! Adorkable banana! (I got that new word from “Flattery will get you everywhere.” :)

  5. Paul says:

    This picture gives me the jivijeebes! First time here and I find a mysterious banana slice smiling at me… Please, don’t feed smiling nanners to anybody! :-) By the way, hello everybody!

  6. Von Zeppelin says:

    Oh, my Lord! What has CO become? First bananas controlled by frightening telekinetic baboon powers, and now bananas hacked to pieces in mid-smile and fed to a voracious infant! Won’t someone think of the bananas?!

    [Thinking... of bananas... NOMMMMMM... - Ed.]

  7. Julie says:

  12. Jezebel says:

    Super find Shelley–good eye!

  13. Manda says:

    I cannot stop laughing at the hovertext. I so, so, so needed this today.

  14. Annie says:

    Well all I can say is as soon as I saw it I Smiled.; )

    I was in fith grade when these took over the world and I am still smile when I see one!

  15. Caitlin says:

    It’s things like this that reassure me that – no, I am not crazy.

    The world really is infectiously cute & sometimes other people get it, too! :D daaaah!!

  16. kyootulls says:

    enhance, please!

  17. renee says:

    Brings new meaning to the caption “Be the Banana”!

  18. jmuhj says:

    That’s the BA(rack)NANA and he’s smiling for a VERY GOOD REASON!!! ;)

  19. Melissa says:

    definitely need a COXCU!

  20. (the original) Mel says:

    I third the request for the COXCU.

  21. spb says:

    Really, jmuhj? Is he smiling ’cause he’s up to somethin? Tsskk…tsskk

  22. Serena says:

    I see :)

  23. Sarah says:

    Yes, thank you for this. Definitely needed it. <3

  24. berthaservant says:

    A banana is an “unusual animal”?

    Well, okay.

    (Orange you glad I didn’t make another Freudian joke?)

  25. crazyweinerdoglady says:

    It’s still a crappy day for me but this at least is cute :)

  26. nismo says:

    haha, how cute! it’s got a little face on it.

  27. Pinkwerewolff says:

    ring-ring-ring-ring-ring-ring-ring….Bananaphone!

    or smiley, as it may be.

    :D sorry, couldn’t resist.

  28. Transpogue says:

    12% of shared DNA.

    All I’m sayin. ;)

    Sometimes a minicube of smilin’ nanner is all you need.

  29. Fegli says:

    How can you eat something that smiles at you?! Seriously! It’s been a dilemma for me for a long time. I think Shelley and I should start a support group.

  30. Michelle S says:

    Pssh. I have no problem at all eating things that smile at me. Including iced happyface cookies from my favorite bakery. I eat their m&m eyeballs first so they can’t see what’s coming next.

    *kronsche*

    I’d probably have a conversation with that banana cube and tell him how cute he was before I ate him, though.

  31. fawn lust says:

    are the black spots in bananas tarantulas eggs?

    /boosh

  32. Hibiscus says:

    Welcome, @Paul.

  33. lyrical says:

    I fourth the COXCU!

  34. Golden says:

    Annie: Wait.. you were in 5th grade when smiling bananas took over the world? Where was I? When was this? How could I have missed that??!!

    and OMG. Annie Bannannnieee fee fi foo fannnnie….
    :)

  35. Shannon says:

    I second the second for a COXCU! (or whatever number we are up too…)

  36. biscuithead says:

    @fawn lust

    Mighty Boosh reference!

    /eels

  37. Theo says:

    Peeps, we can only do a close-up if they SUBMIT a close-up. We can’t just sketch something up quick-like in MS Paint. I mean, we *could*, but I kinda think that would, y’know, suck.

  38. Khadija says:

    what an unusual animal :)

  39. Rimou says:

    Thank you thank you thank you for taking this photo! Too cute!

  40. Liz says:

    It’s kinda like when Jesus shows up in food….only cuter! :o )

  41. snorglepup says:

    Hi Paul!
    You are what you eat.
    Might as well be a happy banana!

  42. darkshines says:

    I have ben so ill for the last 36 hours, and this really cheered me up, but saying that I am eating a chopped up banana right now.

  43. Kris says:

    Cool! Although, if you’re vegetarian and use the phrase, “Don’t eat food with a face…” I guess you’re off bananas now. :o )

  44. Gail (the first one) says:

    @Crazyweinerdoglady, darkshines and others….hope you are feeling better…..

    let a banana’s smile be your umbrella!

  45. strega says:

    Sell it on ebay. I saw a smiling cornflake on ebay. Oddly, no bids.

  46. Sarah F. says:

    That’s a nana?

  47. brinnann says:

    This should be submitted to Faces in Places! http://facesinplaces.blogspot.com/

  48. charliewabba says:

    @Sarah F. – same thing as a nanner.
    And I think I remember the day smiling bananas took over the world – I was in college, and we were babysitting a plant for someone who was on leave for the semester, and we “trimmed” the plant every now and then…

  49. Faye says:

    Is that a banana in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

    :) I guess your just happy, very.

  50. JoJo says:

    REDONK

    I just fell out of my chair, people.

  51. Pups'nstuff says:

    That’s disgusting. I HATE bannnanas.

  52. ld says:

    Oh my goodness! I’m not a big fan of bananas but I can’t resist this happy one.
