For the fourth time this month, self-proclaimed optimist Ben Gomez ’18 is convinced the banana he stowed in his backpack won’t spend entire day getting bruised and beaten. “I’ll probably save this banana until after class," said the delusional sophomore, carefully positioning the banana on top of his textbooks as if it’s not going to get completely mushed up by the next time he’s hungry. “Bananas are such good snacks.” At press time, Gomez put four bananas in a to-go box, confident that he will eat them all before they get overripe and attract fruit flies to his dorm room.
