What the Heck is a Banana Rating™?

Having started this whole Shade Tree Howler Monkey™ reference, I feel obliged to reveal the rating system for a job's degree of difficulty in STHM terms:

1 banana = easy
2 bananas = moderately difficult
3 bananas = pushing the limits of a stock howler monkey; opposable thumbs only get you so far
4 bananas = requires the ability to communicate abstract ideas to other howler monkeys.
5 bananas = the job should only be attempted by a professional orangutan

Hope this clarifies things.
