...gives a whole new meaning to Banana Bread....

So, when the banana rots will it be worth more or less? I can see it now, idiots falling all over themselves bidding on the banana that used to be. LOL!

Things outside my understanding-
the effort going into making garbage, selling garbage, buying garbage, praise of such garbage, linking the garbage to human aspirations. ..

It's the "rap" of art.

There are Ravens around my house that can produce better art than that stupid banana.

Roomfull of monkeys all wanting the banana. But, which monkey has the right of ownership of the banana....I just thought I would cover two articles in one posting. I will side with the BIGGEST monkey.

I thought things couldn't get more outrageous when a canvas with nothing on it but a uniform blue color, named, appropriately enough, "Blue" sold for over a million dollars, but this tops that for stupidity.

At first I thought it was an Onion gag. Then a publicity stunt. Or maybe the alleged buyer would get the whole wall. After all, without that, there is no "art". "Comedian" as a name for this travesty is appropriate. The "performance artist" who ate it--was that part of the gag?--left the buyer with nothing to take home. Oh, wait, they got a new banana to replace it. Or not. I'm now waiting for the lawsuit by the buyer to get $150,000 for the "destruction" of her purchase. Why are we even wasting a moment's attention on such drivel? Oh, wait--it's comic relief from all the tensions in the world. OK, I'll settle for the publicity stunt. All you people trying to get a rational philosophy out there, along with a romantic manifesto for art, here's your playbook: theatre of the absurd.

Any new places to think of Gulching? Right now, except for this site, I have removed my mind from "civilation". Crazies out there are creating a real zombie apocalypse. Only a zombie, rich or not, would buy a rotting banana believing it is worth$120k...

Did you see what finally happened to the ridiculous banana display? Now that's art with a message, haha! https://www.zerohedge.com/political/n...

Oh that is a banana. I thought it was big birds poop.
