Apple did not consult with us when they named Ping, Ping.
So, I learned a trick a couple of months back that has proven to be very helpful. I think it came from The Internets:
Peel your banana like a monkey would: from the bottom, not from the stem.
I’m glad that 2 million others have learned this trick, as well.

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!

To be honest, when I learned this it totally changed my life. Bananas are so much easier to enjoy now.

I’ve been doing it this way for years, ever since I saw a monkey do it on some nature show. I “correct” everyone that I see try the other way.
This should be part of required basic life training – maybe taught in kindergarten.

I had no idea that bananas were so tough to open. I don’t think I’ve ever in my adult life struggled with the opening of a banana. I will keep this in mind when I come across one that is impossible to open. Thanks Internet!

Sarcasm on the Ping, Greg? Where do you think you are?!
