I like hashtags
Hashtags are cool

I remember when they were called pound signs and you played tic-tac-toe on them

 

[Yukari]

I remember that time too.

The states have no use knowing about our silly foreign currencies. Thanks, petrodollar.

Thusly they picked a random symbol they actually used and started calling it "pound sign".

 

[donavannj]

227385. It's actually called the pound sign because it's used to indicate when we're measuring weight in the pound unit from the US Customary Units.

...so you don't call ampersands "yen signs" and plus signs "euro signs"? Disappointed :(

 

[Twilight-kun]

227387

I never knew "&" was an ampersand until recently

Kinda like an aglet

 

[Ivysaur]

So you write "#5" when buying a bag of oranges?

Groovy.

Pff, buying orange bag number five is for peasants. Come on, at least buy number four.

#3 is love
#3 is life

 

[Ivysaur]

Meh. Three pounds barely buy you a small beer.

227392

 

[machomuu]

227393

Depends. Three pounds of gold'll get you a lot more than a small beer.

 

[Abby]

Inflation.

 

[Ivysaur]

But how much beer can three pounds of beer buy?

227395

 

[Twilight-kun]

227396

How much beer could a thingy thing if a thingy thing thing'd beer?

 

[Pokestick good times.]

227397

Inflation pretty much doesn't affect gold. That's sort of the thing with gold.

...I should buy gold.

 

[ruby]

£3 can get you a pint actually :) cheap over here
