Substitute anything for the banana tree THAT ACTUALLY EXISTS.
But she was naked! And all... articulate!

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm with Erika here. Substitute the word "boobies" or "testicles" for "the banana tree" and you get into a whole weird area.
Note to self: banana tree with opposable thumbs better than Rorshach blots.

What? Why? You are not the boss of me, Hecubus..(This is why therapy didn't quite take, huh?) I can see why I don't use the visual part of my brain very often because I can't think of anywhere I'd want to get poked by a tree, and yet? If they had thumbs, that's what I picture.

move out and draw fire
Fine. Be that way. But if the banana tree turns out to be a telepathic sapient alien, I'm leaving.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Substitute the word "boobies" or "testicles" for "the banana tree" and you get into a whole weird area.
Especially when your brain hands you the old AT&T "reach out and touch someone" ad slogan.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Thumbs in wrong places - apparently very disturbing.

I'm sure you're right, actually. I'm sure it's me. In another mood, maybe... I just live to jerk your chain, at least where JZ leaves slack.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Thumbs in wrong places - apparently very disturbing.
Also disturbing - nipples beyond the count of two, humans with dulaps, nostrils of different sizes, knees or fingers that bend to opposite way...
eta, why yes, I did just get the DVD of MST3K doing Manos: Hands of Fate. How could you tell?

What is even happening?
It's a banana bush.

And Cindy straddles the line of pedantry and Frank's suggestion:
Substitute the word "boobies" or "testicles" for "the banana tree" and you get into a whole weird area.
Not that I've heard it called bush. Mostly plant.
