      Some bold assumptions, if you ask me!

      I give the best bananas, people say, nobody in the whole world gives better bananas than me 🍌, and when I give a banana, some assume, I don’t just give a banana, but see they’re coming, their (sic) rapists, and they’re not sending their best people, but when i flush the toilet it doesn’t work quite right and that’s why folks, that’s why when I give this monkey the best banana in the world, that’s why people don’t think it be like that but it do.

      Well it suggests something alright. :-|
