@Pavlov Nice. Yep, commodity-driven human history. Recent and relevant enough to be interesting, but not so current as to sound too 'political'. Nice info vid, thanks.
FYI. The Mediocre staff has a really really aggressive stance on bananas, from eating style to holding style to peeling style. It's almost embarrassing how much we talk banana in this office.
@ChadP we should have the same conversation here... who peels a banana completely and throws the peel away before eating it? instead of using the peel to hold the banana like a normal monkey.
@Thumperchick I'm not trying to get you to fall for anything . . . we're both adults, I figured you would go into this with your eyes wide open. I just thought I'd ask for a handy. The worse you could say is "no". Offer stands. ; )
Some other adjective you'll describe in the forums.
Worthy of a Cold War American Coup in Guatemala.
Watch this seven minute essay and you'll never look at bananas the same way again.
@Pavlov Holy hell - thanks for the education.
Somehow that wasn't in my history books. Thanks, @Pavlov.

Cheer up suckers!
@Pavlov @mehjohnson @KDemo @mehtherfucker I also recommend this book:

@Pavlov Blood bananas!!!
@Teripie That's a real plant . . . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_banana
(Musa acuminata ssp. zebrina)
The blood banana is an ornamental plant, named for the dark red patches on its leaves, though its small seeded fruits are also edible.
They're pretty tasty, but weird.
@Squid_07
Wait for it...
or skip ahead to 1:00
@TerriblyHuang Swedish bananas FTW!
Bananas are:
Endangered.
I start every day off with a banana, they are great.
@WilhelmScreamer
@thismyusername would you pay more for the cereal or the collector's-edition spoon?
@editemily not in the market, but I would guess the spoon ;)
tempting, but just empty carbs in the end.
Cheetah's banana lived longer than Johnny Weissmuller's.

@ChadP It's true. They must be green and monkey style.
@ChadP If you didn't eat them wrong woudn't be no thing

Bananas are stupid.

@Moose this forum is rubber and you're glue.....you should know the rest
@Moose you're stupid

@Matthew From the good old days at Woot.
Not purple! WOO!
I love purple.
A banana can be a dangerous weapon:
Now I want a banana. Damnit.
@Thumperchick I have a banana in my pocket with your name on it . . . Reach in and grab it.
@Pavlov I only fell for that once.
@Thumperchick I'm not trying to get you to fall for anything . . . we're both adults, I figured you would go into this with your eyes wide open. I just thought I'd ask for a handy. The worse you could say is "no". Offer stands. ; )
@Pavlov So you keep a banana handy? Do you also keep a handy banana hammock?
@Thumperchick Never leave home without it. Do you find them sexy?
- OKAY, OKAY, I HAVE DERAILED THE THREAD TOO FAR . . . .
