"See You After Jail Guys": Art World Stunned After Man Eats $120,000 Banana Duct Taped To Wall
Somebody posted the other day about this travesty masquerading as “art.” Looks like this brave wag has shown the world that the emperor is naked after all.

On Friday, we reported on the latest bizarre milestone in the "art" world, when a banana duct-taped to a wall sold for $120,000 at that excess-liquidity conclave of ultra rich and other wannabe poseurs known Art Basel Miami Beach. Worse, a second banana duct-taped to a wall also sold for $120,000. Yet even worse than that, a third banana duct-taped to a wall is expected to sell for $150,000 and so on.

Then on Saturday, at around 1:45pm, the art world was shocked when a random man, allegedly a performance artist, ate said duct-taped banana that sold earlier this week for $120,000.

Who'd pay 120k for a banana. Bit of monkey business going on.

Peel back the layers, bet you there's money laundering going on. You know - 'yeah, I got that 120k for a legit artwork, nothing to do with da mello yello'

So can the guy who ate the banana tank a dump in a bag, then tape that bag to the wall and claim the banana has been returned?

Believe nothing you hear and only half of what you see.

I'm just a product of insufficient modality.

Humans of Earth! I have come in peace. You need not fear me. I mean you no harm. However, it may be important to know that most of you will not survive the next 24 hours. And those of you who do survive will be enslaved and experimented on. You should in no way take any of this personally — it's just business!

The "artist" is a no-talent leftist hack & the exorbitant purchase price is to patronize them & wage a culture war against true art. The Soviet Union was notorious for this. Art was grotesque & displeasing to the eye, architecture was drab & featureless, landscapes were bleak & lifeless, etc.

Crush self-expression by creating ugliness & a fear of beauty. Marxism 101.
