i used to think that stepping on a banana peel could make you do a backflip. i absolutely HATED bananas, but i would open one, eat one bite, and hide the rest somewhere around the house. then, i would put the banana peel down on the floor (carpet, take a running start, and jump on the peel. it never worked, and i always ended up grinding slimy banana peel into the carpet. i never gave up, though.
