      It's been fun to see how it evolved from two men meeting at a UA-cam convention with only their relative age in common, leaving them apart from the young crowd, thus forming a bond that led to them collaborating with their UA-cam channels as both were relevant to food in very different ways that somehow complemented each other. This led to a series, which led to a channel, which led to me making this pointless comment at 3AM. Hooray.

      CrAzYgIrL yep, and it leads to us looking forward to the new episode every Friday but don't ask me to explain why because this is madness. Why would anyone go out of their way to watch this insanity every week that we go out of our way to watch every week.

    As this video ended, a flower grew

  • @bearabraxasreed3623
    @bearabraxasreed3623 6 років тому +88

    An analysis of Eli's story:
    The woman is alone and wants a child. The bananas are phallic but useless, reminding her that she has no way of having a child. The man arrives and she thinks that he is a child, desperate as she is to be a mother. She offers him all she has (her bananas) and he cries, maybe out of gratitude or pity, and a flower grew. That flower represents the child that was born of their exchange. The end.

    • @vissenekku
      @vissenekku 4 роки тому +10

      I believe the flower in that moment is signifying fertility of this man. But it grows from his tears, showing that his fertility does not bring happiness. This implies that they would have a child.
      But obviously enough, this is something she has been longing for. She lives in a lighthouse full of bananas, which is pretty on the nose. But considering the audience, it needs to be a bit on the nose.

    Looking back, I was half-expecting Jimmy to get electrocuted. Either that, or finally confront the Pulsating Mass.
    Still odd that Jimmy turned into Billy half-way through. Maybe he empathized with another boy and learned how to shapeshift into Billy.
