me: could I have a coke with that
cashier: is pepsi okay?
me: is monopoly money ok?
cashier: NO ACTUALLY IT ISN'T OK FOR YOU TO PAY
WITH MONOPOLY MONEY JUST BECAUSE I SERVED YOU A PEPSI INSTEAD OF
A COKE BECAUSE PEPSI AND COKE ARE BOTH LEGITIMATE ALBEIT SOMEWHAT
DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE SAME BASIC BEVERAGE. THEY ARE BOTH
TASTY AND EQUALLY EDIBLE. MONOPOLY MONEY, HOWEVER, IS NOT OK TO
PAY WITH BECAUSE WE HAVE A STANDARDISED LEGAL TENDER IN THIS
COUNTRY AND IT IS NOT MONOPOLY MONEY. ANYONE CAN JUST GO TO TOYS
R US AND BUY MONOPOLY BUT IF THEY COULD SPEND THE MONEY THEY
OBTAINED IN IT EVERYWHERE WHAT WOULD THAT DO TO THE ECONOMY
THERE'D BE CHAOS I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE TO EXPLAIN THIS TO YOU
WERE YOU DROPPED AS A BABY WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU
