Claw grip nice I think you're talking about milko, who faints a lot. He's another favorite. Incredible speed and technique but just doesn't have the strength to be world class, unfortunately

i'm a vegetarian it owns

hey folks, unfortunately derk was brutally sniped in the mouth right as he hit "send" on that last post, presumably by someone who knows that bananas are not vegetables. regrettable but I think we all saw it coming

what the...

the dreaded onion is actually much loved

rest in peace derk...

banana is a meat. you have to skin and gut it. i repeat: banana is a meat. i spent six weeks in the jungles of ecuador learning to hunt bananas with a man named josue, who was also oddly enough the uber driver that picked me up at the airport.

i think we could all use a little josue in our lives, from time to time, in my opion

how can bananas be so good, yet plantains be so vile

Proposition A: bananas have skin Proposition B: humans have skin Proposition C: bananas are humans

😱
