(Adjective)
A term used to describe a particular piece of smug, over-the-top, excessive or needlessly flashy piece of art or metaphor designed to convey a simplistic or obvious message in a needlessly 'wowy' way.
The term is derived from 'Thanks Mr Bansky'(referring to the artist of that name) to create the phrase 'thank mr banky', but simplified with poor spelling and lack of proper grammar to better reflect the snarky nature of the term.

In South Africa, one usually buys weed by the bankie. A bankie is the amount of weed that will fit in a bank coin bag (weed is not necessarily sold in a bank bag, but it is the most common container)

The free market capitalist equivalent of a tankie. A fan of Austrian School Economics, free trade, unrestricted capitalism, libertarianism, and possibly Anarcho-Capitalism.
The world would be so much better if every country adopted Austrian Economics and got rid of the welfare state.
Dude you're such a bankie!
Dude you're such a bankie!
