Is it just me, or are we all going bananas? (Sophie)
I cannot believe this. Some complete THIEF stole $18 worth of Organic Bananas out of our family’s trolley at the Victoria Market yesterday. I am absolutely furious! I am enraged! This is just disgraceful! I mean I know how some theives there steal people’s trolleys to feed their family or something but to actually specifically target someone’s bunch of banana’s that they bought and paid for with their hard-earned dollars? I cannot believe the nerve! Some person out there is now enjoying the bananas that my father slaved his guts out to purchase. Right now my current feeling is somewhat like Lucille Bluth in complete shock/anger:
Sometimes I wonder if this whole nation is going insane.

One can’t blame the poor ape who is in desperate need – he too must feed his family. Given the price of bananas these days ($14.97/kg sighted at Coles), one could be forgiven for five-finger discounting these mysterious fruits that have become an increasingly rare commodity in black market trade among primates.
Were I to liquefy enough banana pulp to run my car, it’d cost me in the vicinity of $1,000 to fill up – disturbing. The phenonenon of supply and demand is driving the insurmountable rise of the banana price – here’s why:
The general public are begining to realise that the inside lining of the banana peel, when scraped and concentrated by boiling, is actually a hallucinogen more potent than Cannabis – so take solace in the fact that some poor monkey who failed QM1 is escaping their cruel reality by getting high off your bananas.
I wasn’t ajoking about the concept of ‘banana high’ 😛

The fuzz is going to come after me for this, but I’ll likely have left the country by then lol.

Yep it seems like Society is going ‘Banana’s’.
A friend of mine had her hair pulled by some Junkie in a train! Its those Junkie’s you have to watch out for.
And those high school students that like to invade our uni because we have a better canteen. (as such) Definitely watch out for them.
Sophie, I’m also very confused by this comment – “LOL PXW!!!! My mother laughed so hard seeing the photo you put up!!!!! And lol at the whole getting ‘high’ off bananas idea!”
Arn’t you the one who made this post? Or is there something I’m missing?
Hey Rick…sorry to confuse but my comment was directed to P. Waterstone who (as I did) put up a lovely link to a picture on the net which was hilarious…hence the picture my mother and I were laughing at.
I’ve found your culprit:

The problem is that bananas are just so tasty! Bananas are not just what I’m having enough of lately!
Man I need to go down to the market and, um, ‘buy’, some bananas!
Just kidding! (so no-one thinks I’m a sadistic freak.) But man I love bananas. Not good when you’re on a tight budget this year.
LOL PXW!!!! My mother laughed so hard seeing the photo you put up!!!!! And lol at the whole getting ‘high’ off bananas idea!
Rick: Maybe we should go ‘buy’ some bananas together? VIC MARKET HERE I COME!!!!!! ahahahaha!!!!

yep, definitely missed that – and what a scary picture!
I don’t even like bananas and I’m craving them.. it really says something about the whole “wanting things only because you can’t have them” idea.
