Are the Black Bits in Bananas Tarantula Eggs?

Comedic film can be misleading at times. The show "The Mighty Boosh" featured two characters, Vince Noir and Howard Moon,working at a zoo -- while having some very funny, irregular adventures.


Vince Noir: Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard... Howard?

Howard Moon: This better be good.

Vince Noir:  You know the black bits in bananas, are they tarantulas' eggs?

Howard Moon: Please don't speak to me ever again in your life.

Now, if your still curious to the answer, its no.

Also, the "bits" are the banana's seeds rather than an egg of an arachnid.

Can You Sneeze With Your Eyes Open?

      I always look around the web for various miscellaneous random phrases and facts and one that always has caught my eye is the "fact that you cannot sneeze with your eyes open". I, whilst shaking my head, always have to wonder why people post such "random facts" when in (fact) they are such clear fallacies. Not only is the first premise not true we can move on to the implied one where people have the notion of eyes popping out. Oh the agony...... But hey don't take my word for it take a look at the following link, and if that doesn't complement your need for knowledge search engines are always there to help to give a lending hand.


Is it impossible to sneeze with your eyes open? 
This link has a surprise question attached, and while it may be humorous, it either shows the capabilities of children to ask questions or how knowledge is lacking within humanity.


 So,  to take my pain away, I label this under Myth.
