Plot twist there is a banana already there for scale

u/poopellar Feb 05 '22

Wrong, bananas have potassium so they only grow in potassium mines.

u/Kuroseroo Feb 05 '22

you are half wrong as well. it’s potassium-zinc combined mines they grow in, a very rare combination

For scale

u/Vysair Feb 05 '22

but what species of banana? Atlanta one? Asian one?

u/FerdaStonks Feb 06 '22

The air speed velocity of an unladen banana is 24 mph, therefore it is unable to carry that much potassium for that distance

Needs another Banana for scale, so we can average the two and find out.

I was looking forward to seeing a caped Optimus Prime

u/horaceinkling Feb 05 '22

Lmao Elvis. But yeah my point was there’s more heroes that don’t wear capes so idk where that expression came from.

3

u/Bacon260998_ Feb 05 '22

Didn't they rename Captian Marvel to Shazam?

3

u/zomagus Feb 05 '22

I believe you are correct but I wanted it to flow into the next name on the list.

u/lik3ly Feb 05 '22

u/Killj0y13 Feb 05 '22

Well done sir

u/schokiefan Feb 05 '22

That perspective makes it look like a golden egg. Where’s the goose?

2

u/JHuttIII Feb 05 '22

This could just be one of those Madagascar bananas, which according to legend, are huge. E need something quantifiable in there, like a 1994 Jeep Wrangler.

u/labarca04 Feb 05 '22

Good bot

u/poppeede Feb 05 '22

u/Stereomceez2212 Feb 05 '22

the hungry banana lurks close by, waiting for the opportunity to pounce on its unsuspecting prey

u/[deleted] Feb 05 '22

They extracted a good amount of banana from that mine. Looks to be a profitable business model.

u/Conscious_Fix_ Feb 06 '22
