It's the avacado's fault

Avocado-lovers warned over knife accidents. These sorts of stories must be read with some sense of bemusement by more people than me. Surely.
Personally I find pumpkins and butternuts far more troublesome. But I have developed a technique whereby, having lodged the knife firmly into the outer skin, I pick up the entire thing and, using both arms, slam it back down on the cutting board. This eliminates any risk of cutting yourself. However it could result in being hit in the head by half a flying pumpkin. Of course, it wouldn't be my fault......
