"Why The Euro is a bad, bad thing"

The Euro.

We shouldn not accept this currency for one simple reason:

It sounds like rubbish space-tv-show money.
Just say it outloud:

"Ah Commander Kreeg, I shall buy your neuroliser, how much?"
"300 Euros"

Euro. Sounds as legit as Drogna or Republican credits.
Rubbish space money, I don't want to have to say that outloud, I'll sound like a sci-fi geek.
"Ah, 200 Euros for the anti-grav hyperdrive. Now I can leave this cursed planet and score with a blue chick with horns"

Rubbish

Jimmy, do you have an issue with most of mainland Europe?

Still i suspose france does has it's upside at least your not in Germany.

I'll cross you off my postcard list then.

Although you get everything paid for you. You'll still stink of Garlic when you return, not worth it me thinks.

We did that. We had to swap pencils and paper to demostrate how good some countrys are and how others aren't. not coz we don't like 'em, just in industry.

Depends which way you look at it really.

I pay for a flight and get an all expenses paid holiday in one of the most exciting and bohemian cities in Europe courtesy of my missus' family.

Or

I go to Paris where everyone is rude and stinks of garlic.

Hmmm...

In a Secondary school geography lesson we had to play a barter game. Basically we swapped bits of paper with each other, and had a list of things we had to have. Anyone that didn't get all of the things on the list was told that they wouldn't last the winter, back in those days.

I was given the role of a priest, so people had to just give me stuff.

I ruled.

Bad luck.

Paris.

Where you going?
