Art: Help an Uncultured Redneck Make Sense of This

[KOPBET]

If I duct taped a woman to a bed, is it art or does it have to be duct taped to a wall?

Y'all don't understand how the extremely wealthy operate.
For one of us to buy that banana it would cost about .35 cents. Duct tape has to be bought in a roll for a couple bucks. Total investment about $3-$4. (I haven't bought duct tape in awhile so my price may be way off)
Art is in the eye of the beholder. This guy worth billions, pays millions to eat the banana. Gets a ton of social media thumbs up and moves along with his life as a special person. The likes are what he lives for.
Dropping 6 million for him is like us buying a fast-food burger to eat. It's nothing.

No kidding, I can only afford to do that a couple times a year.

So, if he paid with crypto, does that indicate how valuable that commodity is really worth?

Money laundering,Bribery, favors.

Flavors. You forgot to add flavors.


Also, is there such thing as a ‘cultured’ redneck?

still missing the point. Buy a 2.50 display for a ton of cash. Insure it. Eat it, banana rots, whatever. Collect insurance. Now who's not cashing in? Lost the insurance to eating it? Tax write off. Rich people stay rich for a reason.

A banana duct-taped to a wall sells for $6.2M...then the buyer eats it. What the actual f*** are people thinking?

Crypto entrepreneur pays $6.2M for viral banana artwork – then eats it

The winning bidder of Maurizio Cattelan’s famed banana duct-taped to a wall installation immediately pulled it off the wall and ate it. This isn't the first time this has happened.

Are they sure it wasn't some of Hunter's artwork? Someone said the guy ate it with chop sticks.
