You take to the streets shaking a banana at people trying to convince them that it is making a sound.


Know exactly who Ricky is refering to when he tells the cops his name is "Gord Downie" before getting arrested on TPB.

lol, actually one night when i was at a house party i was "walking around with a banana trying to convince them it was making a sound" of course i was in Cortland NY, which is heavily populated with long islanders that know nothing of good music, so they all thought i was insane. Oh well. It was a good memory.

Oh I had forgotten about this one!!!

You play The SIMS and you have an entire neighborhood full of Hip references such as:

Iskape Izathend

Poets Ardoing

Courage Maclennan

Tom Thompson

Cordelia Smith

Josephine Kingston

Lang Roy (as in Langlois)

and yes, there is a BOB CAYGEON!

I would have got it... I graduated from Cortland in 2000! I must say I turned my Long Island friends on to good music.... or they had no choice but to listen to it when they were in my dorm/apartment.

THAT was one of the funniest lines I have read on these boards. The coffee I was drinking just ejaculated out of my nose.

Nice choice of words there

Was on an elevator, heading home from recording. Started "Gording out." Thought I was alone. Looked up. Security camera pointed right at me.

you have a framed photo of downie in every room.

...Or framed setlists and drumsticks.

Whenever anybody new comes over, it never fails... "Grace? Music? Blow? What the hell is this thing?"

[thipfan73]

You make a live journal with hip lyrics in the name and/or have the hip as your journal theme and mood theme.

I've done all of those! :lol:

I just found a LJ the other day where the person was posting as GD. It was kinda creepy. It was a role playing thing, but none the less, weird.

I chose to write my Canadian history term paper on British imperialism vs. Native land claims just so I could quote "Looking for a Place to Happen".

It got a B-!

[ahen]

The PROF is your Canadian history class puts up an overhead with the lyrics to "Looking" and asks if anyone knows where this is from and your hand goes up after you read the first two words.....

So, is it him or is it me?...
