Keane E. Langel and his girlfriend, Brenda M. Riley, were arguing at their home at 301 N Belcher Road, No. 901, just after midnight when Langel started spitting bananas on Riley and throwing doughnuts at her.

I can’t hear you, I have a banana in my ear...

[sadponies]

Just when I begin to think the human race is a bunch of brainless morons, something like this comes along and proves it.

Somehow I think the Fox news alert "Bonnnng"sound should accompany the thread title.

Banana Rama could not be reached for comment...

Riley, 49, then "armed herself with a banana," ripped the fruit into two pieces and jammed them into Langel's ears

Must have been a peeled banana, which would explain the skull full of mush.

I find it hard to imagine that alcohol was not somehow involved here....just sayin’

I will not hear another harsh word about Largo. Compared to Pinellas Park, this banana interaction would be an Oxford Union Debate. Besides, Largo is home to one of the world's best run junkyards, Clearwater Auto Parts. This part of Florida is infested with dull, useless natives. The fellows at this yard are very useful.

Apparently, NAZI subs or something took out most west Florida High Schools during WWII. If you need something done in Florida, best call someone in Maine first. 411 will tell you which Maine natives are currently visiting Florida and can handle your problem.

If you simply must communicate with a Floridian, have 3 mojitos first, turn up Jimmy Buffet, and have a friend hit you in the head with a bat. This will somewhat level the playing field. But all is not stupidity here. In Sarasota or St. Pete, you may need only 2 mojitos.

This problem is mysterious. After all, just waiting for a traffic light here, one could read 3 chapters of "War and Peace," and in a few months complete a degree.

Plus, the current Governor, Charlie Crist, is really cute in a very John Edwards sort of way.

Is that a banana in your pocket? Or are you happy to see me?

[ColdOne]

One more..... Its all fun and games until someone loses an eye!

[Larry Lucido]

“Orange you glad I didn’t say banana again?”

[Slings and Arrows]

Uhhh...all of the above?

[Slings and Arrows]

...and then it’s hilarious!

According to Largo police, Keane E. Langel and his girlfriend, Brenda M. Riley, were arguing at their home at 301 N Belcher Road, No. 901, just after midnight when Langel started spitting bananas on Riley and throwing doughnuts at her.

Riley, 49, then “armed herself with a banana,” ripped the fruit into two pieces and jammed them into Langel’s ears, an arrest report shows.

When having stupid banana fight with Hubby, don’t call police. Check.

There’s only one banana in the house right now, so he would be unarmed anyway.

[Slings and Arrows]

Hardly sporting.

[TheOldLady]

All’s fair in love, war, and domestic violence.

'Looks like his Chiquita could Dole it out as well as take it.

I'm sure it's only a matter of time before they're both out on a peel.

Now it's just bananas, but if were to continue, who knows? Slippery slope and all...

[Slings and Arrows]

That would make a great tagline!
