HA! Made you look. This is, in fact, real money, of the canadian variety, and
not monopoly money after all.
This is in the food section because this is the pile of money we left on the
table at Kisha Poppo before we left. So that makes it food related, right?
I'd just like to digress a moment here, and mention that even though our canadian
money trades on par with monopoly money, the fact that it is various colors is
about 4000 times cooler than the lame american money that's all the same color.
To prove my point, consider if you will the lame plot devices in the movies
which revolve around american money. There's only three of them:
- Giving someone money, and being mistaken for trying to hire a hooker.
These only occur at the end of shows, thank god. These are used for
the "funny closing to a lame story" type of thing.
- Giving someone money, and being mistaken for trying to buy drugs.
These occur generally near the beginning of a show, after someone
has gone off on a long rant about how drugs are bad. This is used in
"dramatic story" types of plots.
- Giving someone money, and it turns out that you've given them some
huge sum of money instead of a dollar, like you'd previously thought.
This is used in only the stupidest of situations, which are supposed
to be deemed "comedic" in some way. I like to call this a
Three's Company Plot because it involves a simple misunderstanding
getting blown retardedly out of proportion for 25 agonizingly lame
minutes (the other 5 minutes is used for the super hillarious "whoops"
scene).
The important thing to keep in mind here is, because all of the different bills
in Canadian currency are different colors, it is impossible for you to give
anyone more than you intended to, unless you are either an imbecile or
color blind. This is particularly bad for homeless people, for example,
because nobody ever accidentally hands them 20, 50 or 100 dollar bills.
