Banana

Definition: When something revealed in game is exactly what is says, and nothing more. No hidden messages, no second layer, no clue to the future. Just plain fact. Ba-na-na.

As typified by this post.

Not to be confused with:
"It's bananas"
This could (arguably) be translated as
"crazy" or "not part of my experience of this reality"

In the singular, to keep it from being mixed up with "It's bananas!"?

Like, that weird angle squiggle by that Benjamin Stove guy? It's totally banana!

The term Banana expresses the line -- sometimes sharp and distinct, sometimes soft and fuzzy -- between that which a thing is, and that which it is not. And further reflects on the penchant for extension of that which a thing is to that which it is not.

The classification of mathematical problems as 'linear' and 'nonlinear' is like classification of the Universe as bananas and non-bananas.
