Arg I think I’m just recovering from what you got, cus I seemed to get sick THE SAME DAY you did. Just hang in there!
(^’.’^) I hope Kirby lifted your spirit.
Oh, okay. That sounds better, ’cause if he stole it I don’t know what I’d do. My total faith in humanity would collapse and I’d go into a downward spiral of depression and eventually crash and burn killing myself. Probably by slitting my wrists several times, or hanging, or overdose on pills. Or maybe filling a tank with piranha, taking some sleeping pills, and jumping in just as they take effect.
Canadian money is currently paper, except for out $100, which recently made the jump to semi-transparent plastic. Other bills are supposed to follow over the next while.
That last link of yours seems to not be working properly. Don’t want your dying wish not to be fulfilled. Unless, that is, your dying wish is to leave us “something that isn’t here.”
I miss Canadian Money. ): can’t do that with the pounds here.
hope you feel better sir, and please don’t die, your the closest thing to Canadian humour i have out in this backwards country. P:
is there really a specific style of canadian humour? like how there’s british humour? I mean other than referencing “canadian” things is there something particularly canadian about the humour that makes it different to any other humour? just a thought….
Other countries money always look so much better designed, colorful and interesting to me. Probably partially because I’m used to seeing our American currency. Still, though…
American currency is stupid because it’s so hard to tell apart the different values.
Ps you can do this with any picture. Magazines are ripe fodder. Bigger heads is better, though.
Take a stack of American bills and a stack of Canadian bills flip it on the side and estimate the amount each has… Its easier to guess the Canadian… When you open your wallet without even looking at the numbers you can easily tell how much you have.
Personally, I prefer American currency, specifically for the reason that it is more uniform. It seems more, uh… professional? And I mean, I can flip through a stack in a second to estimate it. The usefulness of color identification seems moot point. Plus being color blind, I myself would probably only be able to identify two groups of color with Canadian money.
I like euros, because they’re colorful in comparison to U.S. dollars..which are plain Green…..GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE–Anyway, I also find it’s less of a hassle to count change in euros. They’re simple, and also easier to pick up because they’re a bit thicker.
Too bad I’ll be switching currencies pretty soon.
Australian currency is the same. Colours all the way!
A few years back I was in America. I went to Disneyland and I was buying something at one of their many gift shops. I accidentally whipped out an Australian $10 note (it’s blue and plastic) and the cashier said as if he was really funny, “Sorry we don’t accept Monopoly money.” Needless to say I got really cranky. The ignorance.
For a long time I wondered why our famous presidents Lincoln and Washington were on the low denomination bills instead of the $50 or $100. Then I realized that since you probably have a lot of these lower bills, then you get to see their smug faces more often.

Did you just steal that dudes ten dollars…
No… he just wanted to investigate this phenomenon in greater detail. Maybe with some drinks and snacks purchased using the aforementioned $10 note…

Personally, I think ALL money looks pretty funny.
Love the last panel, also a question is canadian money paper (like americans) or is it plastic (like australians)?

Yeah, well I can make George Washington look like a green mushroom! Lets see your Canadese money do THAT!

People still use cash?
yep
They may be more colorful, but do Canadian bills have all the cult symbols and hidden messages American bills are famous for.
I bleed green ink, so I’m a little bias.
we’ve got hockey and inuit symbolism on ours… so may call those cults…

the large numbers on the bills are what make it really tough to tell the value I imagine š

Canadian currency!

lol professional…
For profound lack of a more adequate word.
PS I’m definitely printing off a 10 note from google images and trying this out.
The comic is good but I tink that cat stole your thunder. It made me pit milk in my office.
Think*
And Spit. MY GOD! Typing and meds are a bad mix.
It’s okay…

Awesome, there’s the one where you fold the a five dollar cdn by the hockey players leg and you see a head with a turban

New US motto:
Welcome to the USA: Leave the Monopoly money back home!
j/k
I wish the US would start using polymer currency. It’s cheaper in the long run.

Did Canada do the same thing with their leaders?
