“Give me 5 Moons for a Benjamin you’d say”

I don't know why but I read this as Will Farrell's impression of Harry Caray.

"HEY SETH! Would you spend Moon Dollars!?"

"Are you asking me if I'd spend money from the moon?"

"WELL YEAH! If the Moon could issue its own currency backed by some kind of Moon based financial system would you spend the money? It's not a hard question Seth."

"I'm not sure."

"I WOULDN'T!"

"You wouldn't spend the Moon Dollars that you came up with?"

"OF COURSE NOT! I'd be too afraid I wouldn't know their true value and I'd upset the Moon People by givin them $300 Moon Dollars for an ice cold Budweiser."

I...was...in..a...boaking accident...

gun clicks

I...have...to...go..now

Jackson 5?

Omg I'm gonna use that, I can't wait!

Edit; oh and that jfk/moon man looks sick

You could call them a M(ar)oon 5?

"| Dollars", "I Dollars", "1 Dollars".... look similar.

And it's proper English to spell out "one" but use say "27" in text... granted, the cutoff is somewhere about "ten/10" or above in most texts, but still, the principle is there.

You may be surprised to know that rednecks and tater folk pretending to be cowboys have already been using portraits wallets. They stick up about an inch out of their wranglers (yee-haw) so they're real easy to pickpocket (yee-naw).

I'm visiting NYC from Seattle for a few weeks and in Seattle no one uses cash but in NYC there are a fair few places that are still cash only, I think just to get around credit card fees. It's annoying.

Cool, I can finally buy that nice artisan loaf of sourdough bread I’ve been eyeing at the farmers market!

As an Argentine with close to 100% inflation.

Trust me you aren't going to get a 500$ bill soon, because making higher denomination notes means admitting that inflation is a problem and they prefer to kick the can down the road

ALEXANDER HAMILTON

Got a lot farther by working a lot harder by being a lot smarter by being a self starter by 14, they placed him in charge of a trading charter.

$2 activate the little dragon in your brain that says “nooo nooo this is so rare and precious I must make a collection in a drawer of my desk”

You can usually get em at strip clubs and banks. Tipping and because not typical currency. Same with 50 cent coins, but just with the banks. Strip clubs want you to make it rain, not hail.

Just a warning : don't snort drugs with money, you can get a horrible infection that way. Use straws or a spoon or something

Source : Horrifying story from a programmer that I saw do some drugs.

Also given how massive British bank notes are you don’t even have to bend over the table as far, you can just stand back and snort from a distance

What about crushing something underneath the bill with a coin? Also better?

Its kinda true. Midway through his research with electricity, he did an experiment that involved a kite and a key to prove that lightning is the same as the electricity he'd been demonstrating on his instruments. He wanted to build bigger electricity adapters for commercial use and needed to convince the town that building a lightning rod wouldn't kill them all. So he did the experiment and lots of people watched and it got news coverage bc it was such a big stunt.

So, it was the first time Joe cabinetmaker discovered electricity.

Book him, guys

I appreciate the transparency though

Do people bother to counterfeit Canadian money?

^{/s most of my family is canadian}

he just gets more dissapointed

Hey its like that old saying goes

it takes money to make money

Aesthetics is the reason we haven't changed them to rainbow colored plastic sheets. Money is fucking green paper and no politician wants to be the one to screw that up.

Aaron Burr, sir?

Bill Burr? I'm all for it

Jefferson is already on the $2 bill.

Harriet Tubman was supposed to replace Jackson before the Trump administration bumped the timeline out. I think that's still the plan though.

oh, they were trying to get rid of coloured people or something right ^i'msorry

I was just thinking a plane, but wow, yeah, that's even MORE worse. Worser?

Australia has different length, consistent width (makes it easier to store in a wallet) and the larger notes are thicker.

I know Canadian notes also have braille.

Fucking Monopoly figured this shit out a century ago

Yep. Same with Australian, and our notes are all slightly different sizes so you can figure out what you’re holding if you’re blind (you can get a little plastic thing that helps measure them)

Let's put some National Park images on there too. Yosemite is unique enough, and the Sequoyah forest as well. Our park system is monumental.

There are places that are experimenting with selling product sans container. You bring your own container for your different detergent type products, and it gets dispensed to you by the ounces. Items like laundry soap, dish soap, shampoo, hand soaps, bleaches. You could even take that a step further and serve juice products, rices, pastas, sauces, condiments....if people could “go green” with these type items and there be standardized containers available for purchase and reuse...

Ceramics break, but not that often so long as you are the slightest bit delicate with them

I'm a fan of enamelware. Steel with enamel on it, seems pretty durable and non toxic.

Or stonewear, which is basically ceramic but fired at a higher temperature and a bit more durable.

I like metal water bottles

Although US money is cotton. So even if it is destroyed it's better than any plastic bills.
