It's a linear extrapolation, Michael. How big could the error be? 10%?
Banana Prices [Explained]
Transcript
[A graph with the x-axis showing time, from the years 1950 to around 2275. The y-axis is a log scale showing the price of a banana from $0.10 to over $10.00. A label called "Price of a banana (BLS/St. Louis Fred[1])" show a rising trend in the price of a banana. There are two dots on that trend. One is labeled "Episode airs" and the other one "Now". 3 extrapolations shown as dashed lines labeled "General inflation rate", "Fresh fruit price trend" and "Banana price trend" extend until reaching the $10 mark, indicated by 3 dots.]
[Caption above the graph:] "It's one banana, Michael. What could it cost? $10?"
[Caption below the panel:] That line probably has another century or so left.

you don't like fruit?? strawberries, bananas, kiwis, raspberries, blackberries, etc??
strawberries are a scam because they taste like sweetness but without the sweetness. bananas are dope but after half a banana i stop liking the texture. never had the last three
i do like oranges tho. i almost always have oranges. they dont have the small sized grapes here (or i havent come across them) so i dont even get the grapes.

(( The banana that stands on top makes himself look imposing. Taking a threatening stance as if he's above you and everyone else for the things it both wronged - and has been wronged of - in the past. The banana that sits on your shoulder is a friend. An ally that is willing to be by your side at near-eye level. He is not perfect by all means, but he is not above anyone to admit it sometimes, either. ))

Pros of leaving my room: get banana bread
Cons of leaving my room: when I go back in I've reminded the cat of my existence and I must spend the next half hour hearing the cat screaming and trying to get in

i saw frozen banana slices for $2.50/lb the other day. when fresh bananas are 60垄/lb. get out of here. just for them to be peeled and sliced?? i understand that not everyone has all the time in the world to prep ingredients but presumably these are for smoothies, right? if you peel a banana and take a butter knife close your eyes and give the cutting board in front of you a couple of good whacks you've cut perfect slices to freeze for smoothies. so help me god don't let me ever catch a person buying frozen banana slices.

I'm finishing up the next chapter of In Tune and today's themes are: "garden planning for dummies" and "Mobei-jun is 'bad' with money because kings don't deal with finances on a human scale".
Airplane dug his own grave when he made the demon realm unreasonably big over time, because it sounded so cool to the readers when Bingge fought and conquered clans and families with hundreds of demons instead of lame and manageable numbers like dozens, so now he has to deal with a boyfriend who can't think in finances smaller than the sect's yearly budget because he needs to have the competence to handle the entire demon realm (because even Bingge can't Xin Mo his way out of having someone deal with the mundane minutia of actually running the empire) and as a direct result needs to be comfortable thinking in exorbitantly big sums.
