i just paid my girlfriend back for buying a ds game for me……… with cash.
i… stood up. i located my wallet. i found these… “notes” counted them, and handed them to her, solemnly.
she returned some sort of small copper round object to me.
has anyone heard of this
are we sure the swedish krona exists as a physical currency and isn't some kind of bizarre hallucination
this is even stranger than paying for something physically in a store is. for a person-to-person transaction, i'm so used to swish. i would just swish normally.
i made a few person-to-person transactions in euros during my brief time in germany but that's, different,,,
@hikari someone showed me some swedish notes a while back and it took me far too long to realise it's current swedish legal tender..
@hikari (and tbh 2 kr coins and 200 kr notes still seem kinda fake)
@hikari cuute
@hikari …aren't you in Germany?
@jernej__s i was for several months last year but ultimately realised it wasn't working for me
@hikari I know we've previously discussed that the Swedish Krona is an even more fake physical currency that doesn't exist than the British Pound Sterling which I almost never use and stopped having the queen on them and now have some guy with a punchable face instead (or worse TWO guys with punchable faces, one each side)
I basically use my notes as cash for homeless folks and the like...twice in the past 5 years payment systems have been down?
I also found some weird small copper-ish and silver-ish pieces in my wallet (just like Dungeons & Dragons or my other fantasy RPGs!), so I think that's nothing to do with pounds or krona, that's just some pretend coin for tabletop rpgs and larps and such
At least, that's the context that makes sense for me to have medieval coinage, not sure if that explanation explains the round copper your gf gave you
