customer: could I have a coke with that

me: is pepsi ok?

customer: is monopoly money ok?

me: 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
