Germans Still Obsessed With Racial Eugenics

Berlin Man Wants to Make Bananas of Pure Aryan Blood, or At Least Straighten Them Up

What the hell is with the fucking Germans?

Fed up with the inconvenient curved shape of bananas, a Berlin resident has dreamt up a way to straighten this staple of the fruit bowl, even applying to have his banana-straightening method patented.

Karl-Friedrich Lentze thinks he's on to the biggest thing since sliced bread -- the straight banana. Or as he prefers to call it, the "cigar-banana."

The 56-year old social welfare recipient has developed a method to take away the yellow-skinned fruit's distinctive curve.

"Depending on the degree of the curve, chunks will be cut out of the banana, which will then be bound back together using biologically safe bandages," Lentze explained to the German tabloid Bild.

The curvy chunks won't go to waste. Lentze's plan involves either drying them or using them in fruit salad.

"After a certain introduction time, the straight cigar-banana will drive the curved banana from the market," Lentze said. "It's easier to eat, and easier to store."

"The 56-year old social welfare recipient..."

Heh.

See what happens when you let people stay on welfare too long...

Heil Chiquita!

Yeah, and weren't the Japanese working on some square watermelon that was going to "drive the [regular watermelon] from the market"?

These folks will never learn; we like our bananas to be curved, our watermelons to be round and our victories over authoritarian regimes to be total.

I guess it is a matter of time till we see the posters detailing the 'correct' and 'incorrect' angles and dimensions of fruit and vegetables in the produce aisles.

Ever pulled the 'pre-sliced banana' trick on a naive dupe? You tell them of a new breed of the fruit that comes already sliced when you peel it, ready for use in salads or over your breakfast cereal.

Then you show them one. He peels it, and sure enough, the slices fall out in half-inch segments.

Supposedly he freaks out and offers you lots of money. But the only time I tried it, on my mother-in-law, she just shrugged her shoulders and told me it probably would be too expensive and she didn't like new-fangled foods anyway.

The trick is to use a sewing needle and about a foot of thread. You insert the needle at the banana ridge, push it through to the next ridge and pull it out, then re-insert through that hole leading to the NEXT ridge, until you have totally circumnavigated the banana -- then pull the thread out, slicing the inside fruit. Do this multiple times for multiple slices. The holes in the ridges are invisible.

It takes about ten minutes per banana. After my first ho-hum victim reaction, I gave it up as a waste of time.

Maybe we could mail some to the German, and demand a million bucks for the genetic blueprint?

No, no! I've got it! Bananazis!

Posted by: zetetic` on October 18, 2004 07:48 PM

I don't if it's a waste of time to sew bananas for 10 minutes to play banana jokes on people. But it was definitely a waste of time reading about it.

In fact, responding to it has caused me to become less intelligent. I'm actually dumber for having written this.

Now I need a Brit to tell me how to vote. You bastard.

With a humdinger of an idea like that, I can't believe he's still on welfare.

Sounds like the Lorena Bobbit method of banana curvature correction.

The Germans are embarking on a path fruit domination and the world just sits silent and watches. HAVE WE LEARNED NOTHING FROM HISTORY!

First they come for the bananas, then they come for the apples and THEN they come for the oranges.

BIG NEWS UPDATE NOT FIRED

From her lawyer

"The irresponsible reports that have been published stating that Maria Bartiromo was fired or is no longer an employee of Fox are absolutely and unequivocally false," Freedman said Friday. "Make no mistake, we have the receipts and witnesses and they will come out whether through the courthouse or otherwise."

He added: "Those reporting her firing or the incredulous facts supporting that fiction have exhibited a complete and utter reckless disregard for the truth."

from anon2020
So what, she quit?
Megyn Kelly (accursed be her name) used to say all the time that Fox has a top female PR person who is a nasty pitbull and leaks nasty claims about anyone Fox is at war with, including those who have left the network. So I guess maybe she technically resigned? I don't know.
NEW: @FoxNews has obtained Lindsay Clancy defense attorney Kevin Reddington's appeal filing to the MA Supreme Court, which includes Reddington accusing the lone holdout juror of being "biased" against those with "debilitating mental illness", which he says is a protected category.

Holiday Break: I've had a rough couple of weeks -- the shoulder is healing now and I'm finally getting decent sleep -- and I've decided to take a long weekend.
I'm taking Friday off, and then Monday off, too.
I have Open Threads for both days and I will post if big news breaks, but if it doesn't -- and it probably won't, news is slow before a holiday weekend -- I'm going to take a four day weekend.

1977 interview shows that Barbara Walters has always been a seaward and Dolly Parton always had "country class"
Walters actually asks Dolly Parton if she knows that people think she's a joke. This because Walters can't get over the fact that a show-woman has 1, big breasts, and 2, dresses a bit outrageously because, get this, she's an entertainer. A stage performer. You know, someone people pay money to see live and expect them to put on a show.
She never would attack Liberace for wearing glitter-tuxedos. But she's mad that Dolly Parton makes Barbara Walters look bad through association (by being a woman). Babs, you wish people associated the two of you. Believe me, we can tell the difference.
