I don't understand how people can dislike bananas.

Maybe because bananas have undertones? (http://www.modnet.com.au/~firefrog/goBanana.htm)

I don't know either, really. Bananas are delicious.

"Oh," the angel said eventually. "Are we exploring our sexuality together?"

*DIES* XD

Thank you for that.

Today I have a bandanna and a skull and crossbones badge. I have decided that the only answer to boredom is piracy.

Heeeh! I know. I even saved that quote on my funny-lines-from-GO-fics list, which has grown quite large by now.

Excellent idea. There wouldn't be room for one more pirate on your ship, would it? The boredom is strong today.

(Speaking of piracy, have you seen moony's pictures from Norway? There's a Tiny!Jack Sparrow in some of them. (http://www.flickr.com/photos/nicebunchofgirls/sets/72157594225644550/))

You can be my first mate. And Captain Jack looks oddly like Captain Pugwash, and is quite stupidly cute. :D

*attempts to explain several times*

*gives up*

It doesn't work that way.



*likes bananas, for the record*

Honestly? The astringentness (or something) makes my tongue itch unless I get them just right perfect for ripeness. I think there's a window of about half a day that'll work. For a day or so surrounding that, it's okay if they're in something, like yogurt or oatmeal. Something that kind of coats them. Otherwise, no. And forget having them in smoothies--a drink that makes your mouth itch is not okay. It's not an allergy, either.

Throw bananas up just once, and you'll never ever like them again.

I know that's what happened with me. For the rest of my life after that one day, bananas have smelt and tasted JUST like sick to me.

[gramarye1971]

*points to cluegirl's comment* The taste and smell of bananas is inextricably linked in my mind with nausea, I'm afraid.

[fer-de-lance.livejournal.com]

Because they're squishy and don't have any actual taste! :D

[mm_madb]

Well...

I found out, a long time ago, that bananas are high in potassium. This would be the same month that I found out that mosquitoes adore blood with high levels of potassium.

I am severely allergic to the stuff in mosquito bites, I have scars all over my body from them and no I don't scratch.

So I stopped eating bananas, stopped getting bit, and stopped developing funny round scars.

So Banana=Bite=Scar

And that's why I don't like bananas.

[essayel.livejournal.com]

It's the texture!! I adore the smell and the flavour and can eat one if I swallow it in chunks but if I chew I get a huge whole body shudder.

Weird I know.

[batyatoon]

Yeah, I had that reaction with onion-flavored Bissli.

[genarti]

They're not bad. They don't have enough taste for that.

They're just... meh.

*has never particularly cared for bananas, let alone banana-flavored things*

[rowanberries.livejournal.com]

Well, if you are a child, it is because vitamins, ew!

Otherwise sometimes the stringy bits on the outside make people not like them? Some don't like lumps.

[kenovay.livejournal.com]

I'm a freak?

[villainny.livejournal.com]

You really are. And I adore you.

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Then you can be on my pirate crew. :D

[kenovay.livejournal.com]

I also adore you. Yay for mutuality.

*snuggles*

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Dude, I get that with cherries! Also sometimes pears which is like HELL OMG because pears are gorgeous little beasts.

[villainny.livejournal.com]

...ew, dude. I got that with Fosters, couldn't drink it again for a few years.

I still don't, actually, but that's more 'cos it's gross...

[villainny.livejournal.com]

*pets carefully*

[villainny.livejournal.com]

THEY DO TOO! They taste like bananas.

[villainny.livejournal.com]

...that's fair enough. I accept your argument.

I wouldn't do this for just anyone, you know. ;)

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Me, I love the texture. I also love stuffing WHOLE BANANAS in my mouth.

:D!

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Okay. Banana flavour is a WHOLE other thing of grossness. Real bananas are gorgeous and friendly and you can write on them in biro and the cure hangovers. What more do you need?

[villainny.livejournal.com]

*tuts at ridiculous people*

[villainny.livejournal.com]

I will come see you ASAP.

:D

[kenovay.livejournal.com]

It will be awesome.

♥

[apiphile.livejournal.com]

Because they make me physically ill.

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Your argument, too, is compelling. I shall forgive you.

*magnanimous*

Also, I adore your icon.

[essayel.livejournal.com]

ooooh that sooooooooooooooooo Freudian!!!

[shati.livejournal.com]

They have stringy bits.

*likes them, though*

[apiphile.livejournal.com]

My icon feels similarly about you.
