I and the majority of true Americans agree

So you would knowing give incorrect change? How is this different from stealing?

Hey, if they tip me with a 20 instead of a 1 or a 5, it's not my job to let them know they screwed up. If someone gives me a bill, I give the correct change - if they hand me that bill not knowing what it is, and tell me to keep it, I'm not going to tell them they fucked up.

Oh, I understand now. If they were not expecting change, then I agree it is their problem.

What's money?

Gee.

Some people would've considered it a compliment to their service instead of assuming that they screwed up.

Trust me Spin - in that line of work, you soon learn to recognize which are meant as tips and which are mistakes. Not many young kids can afford to hand out 20s as a tip.

That's a good point. I rarely carry cash, though, so I've never really thought about it.

Mischka trades only in gold dabloons or sexual favors.

I'll never forget the first time I saw foreign money, on some island I was working. It was colored. And had a fish.

A fish.

I laughed every time I bought something.

 

[Lost Cause]

Colored money.....

Is good for a dumbed down society with limited math skills. I mean, it's a simple task to look at the number on the currency, in addition to the dead president on it, makes it the easiest for an intelligent society to transact. I prefer silver dollars, they have some heft and maintain their brilliance after going through the wash in my pants pockets! They also sound cool jingling in my pocket, like a mating call to golddiggers.

LOL

Hey Misch, wanna buy a minivan? I don't take dabloons.

So telling the difference in money based on colour makes a country dumb, but telling the difference based on which ugly president's face is on the bill is...smarter?

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

It takes geometric pattern seeking skills to discern between dead presidents. To differentiate between colors you just have to know "what's pretty".

Ahhh, that explains it.

But you still have to take bills out of your wallet to see what dead guy is on it. We just reach in and pull out the right one.

Absolutley. It teaches the young about the founders, that we believe that their ideas were so revolutionary that we base our society around them.

What's the queen ever done for you?

What's so hard about taking money out of your wallet? Hell, we all could use to burn a few calories!

Also you could open your wallet wide (goatse lol) or flip the corners.

Actually freya, it's not that complicated. Really.

You should save your strength for defending Celine Dion.

i prefer peeling it off a big fat roll like the big balla i am.

It's funny to mention dead presidents, since two of our bills don't even have presidents: the Ten (Hamilton) and the Hundred (Franklin).

Get a load of Australian money

http://www.noteprinting.com/sc02_home.html

It's all different sizes
It's all different colors
The lowest note is $5
The highest coin is $2

Reaching into his wallet, Sven picked out a medium sized, orange note. Although Sven had not lived in Australia for very long, he quickly learned the benefits of Australian money. The orange note he held in his hand was for twenty dollars. He could tell that from a single glance. The other notes in his wallet were pink, blue, and yellow, and Sven knew that these were $5, $10 and $50, respectively.

Sven was also impressed at the thought that Australia also produces printed money for various countries. At a rapid rate, he noticed, polymer banknotes developed in Australia were replacing paper-based notes all over the world.

So, what I'm gleaning from this is that there are a lot of dudes named Sven in Australia.
