When you see the HBO logo...
2007-03-13, 1:49 PM #1
what do you think of?

you know the screenshot with the snow in the background that says "HBO Original Programming" and the sort of tuning-in-the-TV sound?

I've been watching The Sopranos lately, but whenever the logo comes up at the beginning, I can't help thinking the Sex and the City theme tune is gonna start, because that's what I first saw it linked to, and so I still associate it with that.

I dunno, random thought!

I don't and never have gotten HBO, so the only thing I've seen from it is Band of Brothers. I now expect to hear that theme song whenever i see/hear the HBO intro thing.

I actually haven't thought about the logo that much, but it's either The Sopranos or Rome that first appears in my mind.

After those it's Oz.

Also, I tend to imagine a Genki saying "HOBO" when I see that logo $_$

I think of a truck driver in India that got AIDS from an orgy with a street prostitute.

No joke.

It was on HBO yesterday, and it was the first time I saw the fuzzy static HBO logo. Elton John told me all about AIDS in India.

I think of George Carlin "Back in Town" from the early 90's. One of the best standup routines ever.

The HBO logo is usually a seal of quality to me.
Looks like we're not going down after all, so nevermind.

When I see that logo, I think the O looks like a giant breast.

Everyone thought it, I'm just the one who said it.

I don't recall ever seeing the HBO logo, but from now on, when I see it, I'll think of this thread, and how it robbed me of 5 minutes of my life.
2007-03-13, 6:44 PM #27
I, like Alan, think of Robin Williams.

Band of Brothers or Curb Your Enthusiasm, the only shows worth watching on HBO.

I think of the letters HB next to a crudely drawn titty with a huge aereola.

That appears every so often.

Also comedy option: Real Sex :ninja:
