Yes, that's right. My friends eat their bananas upside-down.In addition, I am frequently mocked for wearing a seat belt, and people think I'm kinda spoiled because I wash the vast majority of my clothes in the washing machine instead of by hand. I've been told that I'm too liberal with my compliments, I refuse to carry a parasol (!) to protect myself from the sun's rays, and I eat my food waaaay too slowly. Also, while I am fairly nimble with my chopsticks, apparently I have a death grip hold on them that has become the object of numerous jokes.
Then there are my ridiculous (endearing?) linguistic mistakes. A few gems:
"Ooo - this song is really good looking."
"I usually take out my eyeballs before going to sleep."
"We can make popcorn in the turnip!"
And, my personal favorite:
"Excuse me, do you sell ass lotion here?"
Clearly, I have a long way to go.

This way of eating bananas has some appeal to me, since it gives you something to hold onto at the bottom. But how do they get the top open? Or, I suppose if I want to be American about it, how do they get the bottom open?
wait- what kind of lotion were you trying to ask for? you got me cracking up!
Skin lotion! I was asking for skin lotion! (Skin = pi fu, butt = pi gu.) This has to happen all the time, right? :D
And Matty, as far as I can tell, they just pull really hard. Doesn't the stem seem like it would be a kinda floppy handle though?
