This looks like it should either be Steve Martin's next album cover or the plot of a skit the next time he hosts SNL.

@PhineasX Reminds of the time I was babysitting a three yo little boy when I was probably 12 and he hit me over the head with a banjo. Got a puncture wound in my scalp that spurted blood everywhere. Scared him and me (luckily my mom was home next door and we ended up going to the ER).

Show threadLars WirzeniusJan 13
@babble_endanger @suihkulokki @PhineasX Many years ago there were occasional people posting questions about dueling banjos to Debian mailing lists. I don't know why, but I suspect early search engines were somehow bringing up Debian mailing list archives when people were searching for the "dueling banjos" scene in the film Deliverance.
