I once made some money, plain paper black and white, with my own picture photoshopped in. Of course I remembered to blank out the signatures and put “Play Money” in the margin. But even with that, a couple of friends reacted like I was showing them bricks of heroin, so I quickly decided to tear them up. Now I make legal stamps with my photo. Not the same, but at least there’s nobody going to panic.

Most people who handle money at work, can tell just by sense of touch a real bill from a fake one.

If you have had real money stuck in your undies a few thousand times, there is very little chance of getting away with putting a fake one there.

Well, _I’ve_ certainly noticed that a fake $100 bill just doesn’t _feel_ the same against my naked skin.

He got six lap dances for free. Maybe prison will be worth it.

I feel there is a J. Edgar Hoover joke in there somewhere, but I just can’t seem to find it.
