Oh! Oops. I know a lady who does spell her name like that and it took me a while to remember. I guess now I’ve learned it too well, lol.

No, I get that. And I’m here for it!! It’s the name of the sculpture.

Preach! Gotcha, sorry, np, no stress

That - is an upsetting mental image. (I also briefly struggled and failed to figure out any version of the last sentence that isn’t a disaster in logic.) I assume the ad is for the therapy services we all need now? Jeez. Okay, thank you; good wishes that your internet wanderings bring you to less stressful sites in the future.

I meant it’s set up; all typos are possible but the reaction and subsequent is not how people do. It’s one of those pretend text exchanges. I was just acknowledging the joke by using a standard hashtag to note it.

Also. I’ve been hanging out here specifically for years and on earth for even longer. Long enough to know that reality isn’t something that happens to me. I’m not a rock or a tree. I’m a human and I choose. I found your comment annoying, unnecessary and out of place and I said so. You didn’t like it and you said so. THAT’S how it works and it’s the opposite of something you need to “welcome” anyone to. Weirdo, that’s the whole human thing in a nutshell, although I could be nicer or quieter considering all the good role models I’m ignoring right now to twit you back.

Nope. This is an entirely self created landscape, buddy. What you want it to be is the same valid as what I want it to be. Your complaints that I should accept what you want this sandbox to be are exactly the same as the complaint I’m making. Deal with it.

This may have to do with how Americans think about money, too. This is *my* dollar. Yes, the government made it and it “belongs” to them. But it’s MY dollar. We don’t write on money, like, I don’t. Most people don’t. But I’m not holding it in sacred trust for the government and I better not mess it up or I deserve jail. If they’re going to be like that, they shoulda made it out of steel! No one is writing on quarters, are they? This is my money, I accepted it at money, and I’ll pass it along as money. I’m not counterfeiting, I’m not disturbing the peace or being hateful. It’s not a library book. Just sometimes money had writing on it. Sometimes money has tears in it, too! You gonna prosecute for that, huh??? AND cocaine residue, which is not me either. Plus, I didn’t deface it; i got it this way. You can’t prove otherwise.
So this is how at least this American feels about it.

Plus if you deface it to where it’s not usable, then you’ve converted money into paper. That’s realistically a problem for you and no one else, since when you got it, it WAS money but now nobody will take it and you personally have lost the value of the bill.
If you can get it back into the system as money, it’s because someone else accepted it as still legal tender. As long as it’s fairly benign, it will stay in circulation until it makes it to a bank. Bank can cull and exchange for new, so it will then disappear into a furnace. It ultimately is just paper, so our creative species (at least in the US) just accepts that any type of printed flat thing is just sometimes going to get written on.

1. How could they prove it was a particular person? It leaves the bank that got it from the mint and there’s plausible deniability right away.
2. Not worth prosecuting. It’s still usable. It would have to be bad enough graffiti on a sufficiently high enough number of bills to justify a prosecution attempt; it would kinda have to be a problem enough that government would be willing to remove from circulation. Plus you’d have to get federal to take on the prosecution, not local or state.
We actually had a huge project in the US a few years ago where someone stamped bills with a website address to log where the dollar was going. If it was a problem, that person would have been in trouble.
Maybe because “legal tender” has a wide latitude? As long as a reasonable adult can tell it’s money and it’s slightly more than half the bill, it’s still pretty usable at businesses and banks. It can be crumpled, missing corners, faded, written on, taped back together; they’d still take it.

Lol. It’s a self-own, not shtick.
So much of life is annoying already and then people add being annoying on top of it. I think what’s obvious to me should be obvious to all, but this is not the case. It makes me laugh because I’m sure I’m just as blind in other things, so I think the name is fair.

We females are aware, dude. There’s no need to glory in it.
