how to eat a banana

They say to open the bottom end. Or the end without the stalk.

I’ve done that a couple of times. I can’t say it’s easier or better.

Just open it however you want. Eat it from the middle for gods sake.

Who gives a shit.

The first word of this post is what is wrong with our society and especially my mindset in how to interact with society. THEY. Who are they? What is their purpose? Why do they want me to feel so much shame?

Maybe it’s the collective subconscious morality of our society. It’s all the billion little rules that aren’t explicitly stated that we all try to adhere to and rub up against.

Like letting everyone out of the elevator before getting on.

Like not having a phone conversation on a public bus.

Like not watching porn in public.

Like not taking any coffee from the carafe until it’s all the way done brewing. (I just learned this one, apparently the first few cups are super concentrated if you take some before it’s all the way done brewing. Leaving the rest of the folks with watered down coffee)

Like eating a burrito from the end and not from the middle

Like not using a fork and knife to eat pizza.

Like not double dipping.

Without “they” we wouldn’t have a working society. So do we need some kind of shame monster sitting on our shoulder guiding our decisions?

Yes, yes we do. Otherwise it’s fucking anarchy.
