Slipped on a banana skin!

[Vandal]

And no, it's not a metaphore.

I was in the town centre today doing some clothes shopping and I went to put my drink in the bin and alas, a banana skin lurked that I didn't see. I proceeded to slide along the floor and land uncerimoniously. I didn't get hurt or anything but my pride is severaly damaged!

What am I? A cartoon?

[Rick Sanchez]

Ha!

[W!llow]

though at the time probably painfully

I've whitnessed this happen before. It was most ammusing, although he didn't go all the way over.

I actually tried to do this once as a child but it didn't work, maybe the floor surface was wrong?

[custardcreams]

Was Benny Hill music playing in the background, too?

was she brandishing a rolling pin?

[Vandal]

I really wouldn't be surprised if a piano fell on me or something. I feel like I have cartoon accidents at times.

But seriously...I just had to tell this story...my banana skin slip was EPIC!

Did you get it on camera?

Beadle would come back from the dead and give you £200 if you sent that into You've Been Framed.

A bananadrama.
