Banana, banana!
I'll disarm that guy!

Hey guys, do you like to fish?
 
It's fun esp. when you go fishing by a boat. You don't have to eat fishes that you catch.

Sorry, my mistake, won't happen again. Do you want my banana, as a peace offering?

Banana, bread and nutella :D
 
Beware arildno, I've just ordered a stealth banana to be launched.

Banana, bread and nutella
Funnily enough I had one of those about three weeks ago.

Beware of people who smile at you while holding a banana.
 
It's targetted at your feet. Your sole shall be displaced and you shall fall on your butt.
That's the plan anyway
 
Has anyone ever slipped on a banana or banana peel? The only fruit I've ever slipped on was a rotten tomato, which was scary because I was hanging off a bridge at the time (ahhhh, my days of being the bridge-climbing champion of Shrewsbury...).

Unfriendly banana-wielders both of you!
I've made friendly overtures and been receptive and open to any suggestions, and how I am repaid for that?

Fie, you're no fun to play with!

And don't you dare, El Hombre, to try and slip on ME; it'll hurt, I promise.

Misunderstanding and ? what's the relation?
 
Lisa! how can you NOT like bananas ? Is it the taste? The texture?

I'll tell you exactly what is wrong with a banana; stick it in your mouth, and it SOFTENS and turns into mush.
 
Chocolate does that and I bet you like chocolate.

It doesn't; not right away.
I want to chew on my food before it softens; the banana does so way too prematurely.
