Wait, what?

Are you actually implying that drinking milk is childish?




edit: I absolutely love the irony of someone with the username "hashman" calling something childish (and using silly internet acronyms like "TRWFT" in the process).  The lack of self awareness is palpable.

I live in a major US city surrounded by agricultural areas.  The milk is produced locally, which may be why I pay slightly less than average. PCCS on the other hand, seems to be paying  @ $1 over the average due to his remote location.

Exactly. 

Then thats a supply problem in your area why would u bring that up in context of an argument here??

So is our SEC agent living in the past, or is not living in USA?
Or maybe gets a nice subsidy?

Largest grocery store within 100 miles .... don't have much choice around here.

Alea iacta est

Because you shop like an idiot?

Seriously, I pay $2.75 for a gallon of milk.

If the dollar is so strong then why did it cost me $4.39 for a gallon of milk the other day?

They're just playin with the numbers and telling people what they want to hear.

Actually, no. I'm just making fun of Elwar, and bitcoins are low-hanging fruit.

OK. This is 2009. Can't imagine what an updated 2013 image looks like....

I don't know about that. Might be true but not what I was thinking.

To him we are playing with illusions and monopoly money.  Its his opinion, and he seems earnest in warning us from our folly.  But we will mostly ignore that advice because we like what we are doing for our own reasons.  To me he seems afraid of things that don't worry me.  So i thank him for expressing his opinion here where doing so supports a cause that he himself does not support, the bitcoin business that is this forum.  That unbridled kindness toward strangers deserves thanks.  That he is also so very unconvincing in all that he writes is another small bonus.  If some are convinced by the message of fear, than that shows places where education is needed and better messaging from those that better understand the issue.

After all, he could be doing all this on quatloos instead.

I think what he's trying to say is that if you have faith and stick to dollars and there's a problem, then some of those who kept the faith will get bailed out when the troubles come.  And you'd have a chance at those riches.  If you just ... you know ... play the game right....

Thank you for your conscientious concern for our well being.  Americans are free to spend money on illusions.  Thank you for protecting that freedom and not preventing us from wasting our wealth on Bitcoins.  Your opinion on the matter is noticed, many disagree and like the illusion of math and software allowing us the opportunity to transact across great distances among ourselves with our monopoly money.  It is a fun game for us.  Thanks for watching us play, it is nice to have a audience generating advertising revenue for our forum creators.  Even if you are never going to play, you are helping in your own way.

If you keep blowing your real money on Internet Monopoly Money, you won't have to worry about factoring in any of that anyways (because you'll be broke).

I need to start thinking your way.

already said this in 2011 buy usd on every dip. See qe vs usdx 5 yr chart thats the hint.
