except the dollar will be the only currency left standing after the Europe crashes ten times harder than America.

Unless you really think anyone gives half a fuck about australia or canada's dollars

>>8771843
>play money
American banknotes feel like Monopoly money. They're made of the same paper/cotton/whatever as other notes, but I'm always terrified I'll rip them because of how flimsy they are. I know it's to save money, but why not have coins for insignificant amounts like a dollar? They could be smaller than quarters for all I care, at least I wouldn't end up ruining half my dollars by ripping them.

Does the U.S. Treasury not incinerate old notes?

freddos are 20p

>>8771853
Who gives a fuck about numbers and paper?
I'm a NEET, and even I spend all my money on gold that I hide under my floorboards.

>"Freddos - £1.29"

The fuck? They used to be 5p when I was a kid.

Seriously?

>>8771858
Holy shit, really?

The economy should be backed by Freddos. Fuck housing or gold or whatever. Whenever the economy is in turmoil or inflation occurs, people always comment on the price of Freddos. Cameron needs to back the Freddo Standard.

>>8771853
The US is only keeping themselves afloat because they can print money like their lives depend on it (and they do). The second China takes over the leading currency you will sack so badly. Given that won't happen for the next 10-15 years but it's still coming and I'm sure it's inevitable.

>that feel when you used to be able to get 20 freddos for 2pence.

>>8771867
Yes, you can seriously click that and it will show you those responses.

Isn't technology amazing?

My face when I googled Freddo and it exists.

Green toad, so cool.

>>8771866
hehe :)

The fuck's a Freddos?

>>8771862

>implying any currency in Europe isn't fiat


dumbass

>>8771878
What?

>>8771868
That feel when mama used to give us sixpence on Sunday and we'd get eleven Freddos from the news agents which was ran by a white man instead of Abdul McForeign.

>>8771876
Shit, cheap chocolate nobody cares about until they occasionally raise the price because of inflation.

>>8771881

Any fiat currency can be printed off whenever the fuck the central bank feels like it; you imply that the US is special in being able to do it.

>>8771876

>>8771890
The difference is that they don't do it and also the Dollar is the world's leading currency.

So are Freddos like stones of jordan in diablo 2 or something. They're used as currency overseas?

>>8771884
how old are you

>>8771884
Woah. You must be like a double Wizard by now. How is Gensokyo? What kind of Wizard powers do you have?

That feel when Caramel Freddos just aren't as nice as Taz bars were.

>>8771903
thats private..

>>8771899
How old are YOU?

Seriously, I'm curious.

>>8771905

Oh dear god, I had forgotten about those.

Do they still make them? I don't think I've seen one in years.

>>8771906
Age range, then.
Late teens?

>>8771905
Holy shit these were great even though they were probably exactly the same god damn I want one.

>>8771909
They got replaced by Caramel Freddos, they're the same thing but just a different name, not as cool without Taz on the packet though.

>>8771912
yes late teens :p

>>8771903
His name is Glen Williams.
He is 15 years old and he lives in Nottingham, England.
He has PDD-NOS and his older sister has severe autism.

>>8771919
uh wrong on all accounts but im sure you will say im just denying it :p i actually live in yorkshire nerd i said that yesterday

>>8771912
Fukune is in his early 20s, but thinks it's funny for him and his mentally challenged /a/ friends to act like retards in order to piss people off. Shitposter mindset, I'll never fucking understand it.

>>8771919
You upset that your lover turned out to be a boy, Tokiko?

>>8771930
im not in my 20s either lol

>>8771926
Sure, change your story.

I logged your IP address when we played TF2 together a month ago. It begins with 94.6. I ran a geoIP lookup and it showed your address.

Watch out, Glen.

>>8771930
That's not very fair on /a/ goers.
I want you to apologize immediately.

>>8771937
The UK isn't exactly chock-full of data centres and communication points. GeoIP tests claim I am in any city except the one I actually live in.

>>8771930
>>he doesn't know that series like Galaxy Angel/Milky Holmes are /jp/-related

This is why I don't take anyone who ever randomly mentions /a/ seriously.

>>8771937
i havent played tf2 for ages that game sucks
play a real shooting game (tribes_

>>8771951
congrats on the marriage

>>8771945
Though, as an aside, Google gets my location spot-on. I don't know how. I don't have a GPS in my computer and I don't have a Google Account. I can only assume Google deduced it from my searches, or they cut a deal with major British ISPs to get an accurate location.

>>8771951
>ZUN!bar

>>8771938
Have you seen the way this Abby person acts along with her friends? Wherever they go they advertise the fact that they are from /a/, be it on formspring or here. The only difference is that other than Fukune, they all got banned from formspring for being complete retards. Starting some inane "wars" with other users and insulting them for whatever they damned well pleased. You'll slip up one day too Fukune and then you'll get reported for breaking formspring's TOS. Don't even think about evading your suspension then. I'll find you wherever you are.

>>8771945
my stalker isnt very smart lol

>>8771951
right as always zunby :)

>>8771928
Tokiko is the one who got caught up over Rita?

>>8771951
Having fun ZUN!bar? Falling ever deeper into shitposter mindset.

>>8771962
I don't know. I don't follow /jp/ drama. I just remember he wrote a lot of poems about Fukune, stalked "her" a bit, delayclosed /jp/ after "she" blocked him on Steam, then got all hung up about it.

In spite of everything I feel sort of bad for the guy. I think he's only like 15.

You shitposters are hilarious with your contrived drama.

Imagine how dull your life would be if you couldn't post with a name?

>>8771967
The things they must have done to him in Afghanistan... how I miss the old ZUN!bar ;_;

>>8771971
ZUN!bar was always a shitposter and you know it.
I wish I used a tripcode early on. I want to be internet famous ( ._.)

>>8771978
sup david? how's your new job treating you?

>>8771971
What did they do to ZUN!bar in Afghanistan? Before he got sent there he discussed games/anime/whatever his other interests were in a rather intelligent fashion. All he do now is spam memes and feign ignorance for some undisclosed reason. What happened?

>neo/jp/

>>8771967
Hey, I'll call you out if you're trying to act elitist without the proper knowledge to back it up. I'm seeing this way too often lately from 4chan try hards.

>>8771980
Not David, though for some reason I was thinking about him when I posted.

Didn't someone report you to your VPN/ISP?

>>8771987
Hey ZUN!bar, who would win in a fight: You, or 0037?

>>8771994
0037 is an obnoxious faggot.

"nameless", we mentioned 0037. That's your cue!

>>8771987
To me it seems you are trying way too hard to belong. Too bad the group you are trying to impress are a bunch of kids that can only find solace in shitposting wherever they go. "Proper knowledge". Please ZUN!bar, I've seen what these retards do on here, formspring, Steam and in other places. It is I who should call you out on your lack of knowledge.

>>8771954
Do you use Chrome?

>>8772003
Do NOT bully ZUNbar! He is my friend!

>>8772003
ZUN!bar has always been a "take it easy" kind of fellow. However that applies to things like meta drama and circlejerking as well. He's the kind of guy who would shitpost in (and bump) an almost dead thread to make a silly post, then shrug it off saying there's no such thing as shitposting.

We all have something to learn from ZUN!bar, and he has something to learn from us.

>>8772019
What are we supposed to learn from him?

``It's not shitposting if it's funny"?

>>8772001
Great, now this thread is even shittier.

>>8772003
Who even are you on formspring?

>>8772022
To take it and easy and not throw a hissy fit about everything.
But at the same time, that's not an excuse to shitpost or troll as you often seem to think it is. Of course if you

then people are going to complain.

Being a decent poster is more fun anyway.

>>8772022
go to bed tokiko or some other board

>>8772029
Shut up, Tokiko. No one wants to hear about your Advanced Shitposting Theories.

wtH is the janitor. I bet the 15-year-old is him as well.

>>8772041
I think one of our janitors is Quality Control. It would explain his sudden disappearance, and the sad fact about the janitor application process is that autistic tripfags are more qualified.
I-it's okay if it's him, though...

>>8772029
>then people are going to complain.

Some are also going to idolize you. This Zunbar newfag has probably done all the things you mentioned.

>>8772051
>Zunbar newfag
He's been here since 2008 d00d.
Which is apparently a long time.

IHprobablyBT.

>>8772045
/jp/ shouldn't have janitors, but mods who lock threads and state a reason while doing so. They should also have names, as that would create accountability.

>>8772053
That's what I meant.

Also, I don't know what that accronym stands for.

>>8772066
I sort of agree. I always thought the janitor system was kind of flawed. After AoCgate, I think moot should have wised up a bit and given janitors more power and accountability.
After all, these are people who volunteered. They would probably lick moot's balls if he asked them to (I would), so they're less likely to risk their position. As far as I'm aware, no janitors have ever really abused their power. Plenty of mods have though.

>>8772072
As a law, authority figures, even /jp/'s janitors, do what they can get away with. Power will always get abused, especially in relatively lax environments like 4chan, so accountability would be nice.

>>8772090
Just email moot. I did.

I actually emailed him complimenting our janitors. Then about a week later I got butthurt over their treatment of Ar Tonelico threads, so I fired off another email revoking my comments and complaining about how they sucked. If moot really does care about email, he probably thinks I'm bipolar as fuck.

>>8772119
I don't care about this board enough to do so. I've only been coming here for three months, and I only care about the moemoe 2hu fandom, so I presume you're about to contract mad's syndrome.
