Yesterday (the 20th) Dad and I got tasked into doing dinner. He preped some fishcakes while I got the unfortunate job of prepping a salad.of a type I didn't like. Damn, I'm a Caesar type of fur, you know? None the less, this is the family I'm living with. So I take out various greens, starting with the spinach.
Spinach in a salad. If my father wanted to be like Popeye he'd actually exercise once in a while. He was doing laps round the local mall for a while before the shops opened up, but how that stopped...
Anyway, I was chopping up various vegables to put in, and he goes and offers me a dead banana. A banana so dead you'll swear it'll turn to oil any minute. So old even the brown spots had brown spots. I declined while he peeled the dead banana.
Then he proceeded to suck on it.
Now, folks, I'm not the one for screwing up your brain cells by smoking pot or weed or snorting coke or glue or even getting the rare but famous "brain pierce" as illustrated in Dilbert. I'm not for that. I'm not one for spreading the fallacy that you could get high off of banannas. But something strange happens to a man who stucks a dead one, that's for sure. In and out, in and out, sucking on a dead banana like there's no tomorrow! It was like he was making love to it. Taking stuff out of the fridge, mixing up some special concoction, while sucking in a dead banana. Garlic! Thime! Rosemary! Savory! Eye of newt! Wart of toad! Everything that could possibly go into a salad this strange! All by a man, a man sucking in a dead banana.
I stuck with the fishcake. That he mixed up before he got mixed up. Damn shame.

The phrase, "Who are you and what have you done to my parents!?" comes to mind.
