The Time When Banjos Weren't Appreciated was a period of time during the Great Depression in which the entire YTP World was filled with a general dislike towards the string instrument we call the banjo. Almost everyone was a banjo hater. The severity of the hatred varied from hater to hater, and ranged from mild irritability when near a banjo, to being unable to tolerate music played by a banjo, to violently attacking them on sight. And the worst banjo hater of all was none other than Diddy Kong. Ironically, the actions of this crazed chimp ended The Time When Banjos Weren't Appreciated.
