Banana seems weird given the thick skin, even if it's possible to bruise the fruit through it.

I've never heard either but they both can make sense

I thought for sure one of the options was going to be an orange, but that's more to do with the "joke" about beating someone with a sack of oranges

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

I wasn't aware we were even referencing a phrase. I thought we were just saying what fruit we think of as bruising.

Apple is one I've heard commonly, "plum" is something I heard growing up. Because we had plum trees on the farm.

Also, "bruised plums" is a euphemism I've heard for a vasectomy recipient.

I feel like I've never heard this phrase before, but banana and then peach came to mind before clicking.

I've also never watched a full episode of Friends.

I don't think I've ever heard of this being used to the point where I thought it was about someone liking a fruit if it was bruised.
