Tomorrow we are performing an experiment to see what is funnier when it hits the sidewalk from the patio: A coconut, a papaya, a kiwi, a mango, or a plantain.
We need Sam to sink the pirate ship with an aerial assault.
I say A) he can't lift a coconut (even though he has a friend helping) and B) coconuts don't grow on the Canary Islands.
I also say that papayas are inherently more funny and less cliche than coconuts.
So a couple of the engineers have agreed to help with my experiment and judge which fruit is funnier when it hits the ground.
Problem: I cannot find a coconut ANYWHERE. Everyone has the meat, but no whole coconuts.
I have everything else. I think this is an anti-coconut sign.
Did you know that bats pollinate the agave plant and eat the pests that would wipe them out?
Without bats, there'd be no tequilla.
I think only a papaya, mango or kiwi has a chance of inflicting collateral damage when used as a weapon. Coconuts need to be opened with chisels and hammers, that's not going to work unless you need to hit just one specific place. And a plantain will just bounce off unless it's so ripe it softly splats. Actually the kiwi is kinda weak too unless there's a kiwi shotgun. I'm going to guess papaya or mango. Really the mango should win. It's got the honking pit in the middle.
I swear I just overthought fruit weaponry.
And am suddenly craving a smoothie.
Without bats, there'd be no tequilla.
Three cheers for the bats!
Kiwi has comic potential just for the name.
I also found this somewhat creepy video of Nadia Comaneci visiting Bela Karolyi's training center. [link] The whole "Just like the old days, Bela can make me do anything he wants me to do" thing is just disturbing.
That and the fact that someone ran out and cut four inches off her hair between when she left Costas and flipped across the room to Bela.
I vote papaya for the funny. All those little bb seeds!

Your experiments are so much more fun than ours.
At most, we go to the Superconductivity labs, put soft stuff (erasers, leaves, the like) in the remains of the liquid nitrogen and see how they get all frozen and solid and break instead of bending or moving.
