dictionaries do not provide much context that would un-confuse someone who has not come into contact with a colloquialism.

- pseudalopex 2y agoThe context is bananas means crazy. Dictionaries provide this context.
- donatj 2y agoIt would not have helped me in this situation. My assumption was "bananas heavy" was a phrase I was unfamiliar with, so I was trying to look that up. "Bananas heavy" is not in the dictionary, I fully understood that bananas can mean crazy, but what I do not understand is the sentence and the context. I never would have used the word with that meaning like this. Who would say something like this? I still don't understand why a person would say "bananas heavy" to mean "YouTube embeds are bloated". It just sounds so awkward and bizarre.
