Banana Hammock

Banana Hammock Lore

There is far little in the universe more misunderstood than the banana hammock. This is because the banana in and of itself is a misunderstood fruit. Most people don’t even know the banana is a fruit which is bizarre because it is clearly not a vegetable and certainly not an animal. Granted, there are no people in the universe dumb enough to think a banana was at one point an animal (although some people believe spiders hide in the peels) there probably are people who think a banana is a vegetable, but ignore those people. This particular musing is on the banana hammock.

No, there will be no bodybuilder jokes despite the desire to make them. This particular essay refers to a non-slang version.

A banana hammock is a carrying case for a hammock that is shaped like a banana. They designed the carrying case to look like this assuming that every place one goes, a banana will be welcome. (Try carrying a banana hammock past the monkey house in the zoo and see how far you get.) There is no need to question someone carrying a hammock around (despite the obvious question of where are you going with a hammock?) and anyone who feels transporting an item in a carrying case shaped like a big banana has the right to do so.

It would be super cool if you could unpeel the banana hammock carrying case, but, alas, it comes with a mere zipper. That is okay. As long as it works and you get your hammock out in a reasonably expeditious amount of time, the zipper is acceptable. The main thing is that the hammock is transported safely and securely so it can be accessed at the time one feels like using the hammock. Ain’t life a real grand?
