The #BananaPeelChallenge is the latest meme to start trending on social media, and it’s one that we 100% support.
Not because we think it’s brilliant, but because some teenager on Twitter or Instagram is definitely going to break the hell out of their arm or skull for a shot at going viral. We’re expecting the results to be somewhere between “The Condom Challenge” and the “Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge.”
I can’t say that I necessarily blame them, every kid in the world eventually learns the hard way that banana peels are as slippery as cartoons make them out to be, but now there’s the potential for tens of thousands of kids to try it all at once.
Mashable seems to be blaming Twitter user Jason Oakes for starting the trend, so irresponsible parents should blame him when they’re taking their teenager to the ER.
