British money looks so much nicer than canadian. Especially with the fact you can piece the coins together like a puzzle.

@techdisk American money is the worst. It's so boring. And it smells bad.

@cskyes canadian paper money is turning plastic.

@techdisk Whoa, what

@cskyes plastic bills that smell like maple syrup. You can see through them. Currently only on the $100 and $50 bills.

@techdisk I remember when the nazis tried to insert lots of fake money in the market to ruin British economy, but failed because the fake money was too perfectly cut, and people noticed.

@gladosenchilada they did that?
Saturday, 29-Sep-12 19:49:26 UTC from web-
@techdisk Yeah. The goal was to make the economy fall due to a sudden increase of circulating money. The pound's value would instantly drop. But when they tried to introduce the fake pounds, they (and the British) noticed they were fake because the edges were perfectly cut, and the real pounds were pretty much ripped from each other.

@gladosenchilada ha! Shoulda thrown the fakes into a rock tumbler before releasing them.

@techdisk Never understimate the power of poor craftmanship.

@gladosenchilada stupid nazis
Saturday, 29-Sep-12 19:53:33 UTC from web-
@techdisk Go away, nazi hater. I'm pretty sure you never met a nazi in your life. Hell I don't even know if there's one still alive.
Saturday, 29-Sep-12 19:56:19 UTC from web-
@gladosenchilada uhh. They're nazis. They exist to be hated.
Saturday, 29-Sep-12 19:57:32 UTC from web-
@techdisk No, that's dumb. They were just one of many bad political parties. Just wait 100 years and many of the political parties you see today will be referred to as demons, like nazis are today.
Saturday, 29-Sep-12 19:59:36 UTC from web-
@gladosenchilada doesn't mean they weren't demons.
Saturday, 29-Sep-12 20:00:12 UTC from web-
@techdisk But they weren't nearly as bad as they are protrayed today. Just look at their technology and architecture. If not because they tried to conquer everything in one go, they would probably rule the world today. They just suffer by the "history is made by th winners" thing.

@gladosenchilada Also being both responsible for and complicit in genocide.
Saturday, 29-Sep-12 20:05:15 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Yes, but every major empire did so. I'm not saying they're not bad, I'm just saying they're made worse than they really were. They just did the genocide blatantly. Rome, for example, killed far more cultures and people (relative to total population ATM) than the nazis.
