Technically it's linen, and also this doesn't apply to all countries for example, Romania has plastic notes. (I think Canada's started to bring in plastic ones as well...not too sure on that 'un though.)

Yes, we have started to bring in the plastic stuff. We have them for the Honey Bees (100 dollar bills) and the 20 dollar bill.



A "Jiffy" is an actual unit of time, equaling 1/100 of a second.

I thought go was a sub-clause.
Every clause needs to be made up of a noun and verb, apparently.

Just saying "go" on it's own wouldn't make sence to me without having a clause next to it.
But a sub clause is a full sentence, isn't it?

*is confused*

I must sound so dumb ._.

Well, every "rule" in the English language has been broken like 484854687 times. XD

100 dollar?! I know 50ies (in pounds, as that is my currency.) exist but they are very rare because, so I've never seen one! XD

Well, in "Go" there is an implied (you) before the word go...

Thats false ^^ There is information here: x but there is too much to paste here :P

That source only explains how they get wrinkly, not why, its also two years older than my source. here Also They don't swell up because of the water, they swell because of vasoconstriction in the fingers.

I was just eating carrots and dip and it made my fingers wrinkly. It did help me grip the carrots better. :lol:

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.
