Just when you think the world can't get any more insane...along comes this!

The banana “transcends geographies, language, understanding, cultural differences,” David Galperin, head of contemporary art for Sotheby’s, told the Washington Post's Ashley Fetters Maloy after the auction. And the high price tag it commanded “spoke to its universality, the way it kind of pierces through the cultural zeitgeist to the very center,” he added.
 
And sold in your local Dunnes supermarket for approximately 30 cent, as they say "Better Value Everyday" ;)

Now where did I leave that roll of Duck Tape??
