  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

I once ordered some bananas from a grocery (online order, in-person pickup), and the store wanted to substitute corn. On the one hand, both are yellow and edible, with an outer husk that must be removed. On the other hand, they are otherwise nothing alike.

They're both also staple starches in central American cuisine

I wonder if native Americans saw maize and were like "I bet we can turn that into a banana".

Never know until you try.

It's a shame, because games like this used to come with manuals that could work in a pinch.

The pages I remember were that glossy kind of paper, wouldn't work as absorbent. Could work as a funnel perhaps...
