      Translation: If you don’t point a finger when society says everything is okay, they’ll continue to ignore the flood of shit that is behind them. We laugh, but no magical unicorn is coming to save us monkeys…

      Yeah, it’s a bit pessimistic for me.

    Here is an interesting fact: Bananas are naturally radioactive. They contain potassium, and a tiny fraction of that potassium is actually the radioactive isotope potassium-40. This has even led to the creation of the “banana equivalent dose,” a playful unit of radiation exposure!

      XKCD created this handy Radiation Dose Chart that shows the radiation exposure you get from bananas as compared to other sources of radiation, to put it in perspective. Luckily, I’ll never get radiation from sleeping next to someone else.

        So what Randall saying is that eating a banana is the equivalent of a threesome? Never knew bananas were so SPICY

      Another fun banana fact: banana equivalent dose is also the threshold at which a beer is allowed to be classified as non-alcoholic in spite of not technically being completely devoid of alcohol.

      The (quite reasonable) compromise being that any content below the 0.5% some bananas contain metabolizes so quickly that it’s literally impossible to get drunk on it and furthermore too dilute for even the severely allergic and people on medicine with adverse interactions to feel any ill effects.

      I am sorry sir, but you have received a lethal dose of banana radiation poisoning. You have about 2 days to live and should start making arrangements.

        If by arrangements you mean binge drink to beat the radiation to the punch with fatal alcohol poisoning, I’m all in!

        I think memes can be a good jumping off point for some interesting conversations. I don’t know that people are taking the MEME too seriously, or the following conversation is just an interesting one.

    The fact that this got a fair bit of upvotes tells me I’m not alone in my narcissistic tendencies. Yay me and me alone!

    Same, and also when someone creates a new post on my communities :3

    (Just also look after yourself not to get social media addicted, okay? 🥺)
