Wasn't that a grunge rock group back in the 90s?

It was a The Knack song from the 1980s.


"My, my, my, myyyyy, ebola!

Come a little closer, huh, a-will ya, huh?
Close enough to look in my eyes, ebola!
Keeping it a mystery, it gets to me
Running down the length of my thigh, ebola!"

Bonus points for throwing a whole verse out there.

You would have also received credit for: EBOLA by the Kinks

I met her in a club down in old Soho, where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola. C-O-L-A cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance. I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Ebola. E-B-O-L-A Ebola.

I thought it was an OMD song:

Ebola day, you should have stayed at home yesterday
Aha words can't describe the feeling and the way you lied

These games you play, they're gonna end it more than tears someday
Aha ebola day, it shouldn't ever have to end this way

It's 8:15, and that's the time that it's always been
We got your message on the radio, conditions normal and you're coming home

Ebola day, is mother proud of little boy today
Aha this kiss you give, it's never ever gonna fade away

Ebola day, it shouldn't ever have to end this way
Aha ebola day, it shouldn't fade in our dreams away

It's 8:15, and that's the time that it's always been
We got your message on the radio, conditions normal and you're coming home

Ebola day, is mother proud of little boy today
Aha this kiss you give, it's never ever gonna fade away

Kind of obscure. Partial credit.

OMFG, Weird Loners is a funny sitcom, I didn't think they made those anymore.

Never heard of it. What channel?

It's on City TV here, in the US it's Fox.

A funny network sitcom? This, i have to see.

They just aired the pilot here. It had some good moments. My favorite was the wedding ceremony.

Yeah, that was the best part.

Not trying to start a holy war but why is today "Good Friday"? Isn't it the day that Jesus got killed according to the bible? Seems like it should be called "bad Friday".

It's a good question. I don't know the answer. I do know that in Germany, the day is called (in translation) Sorrowful Friday, which seems to me to be more apt. I must confess my ignorance on this point.

Once again, the Germans know everything.

I don't know how any of that old shit became important.

All I know is that Cadbury eggs are delicious, and that we get chocolate this Sunday for some reason.

Didn't Cadbury change the chocolate in its eggs?

The whole thing seems bizarre, some guy gets crucified, dies then rises from the dead and we wind up with chocolate bunnies and eggs

I don't know if it's awesome or pathetic but since neither my sister or I have any kids, my mom still gives us Easter candy.

Jumping on the bandwagon late:

SP was a really great member when she wasn't being a really horrible member.

Her moderation style left moderation to be desired.

In summary, SP had spent a deal of time on WBW.
