Then he begs me to 'fuck [him] anyway, he'll never know, please?!'

I find it amazing how many guys seem to think that the girl they just met is ONLY saying no because she thinks her boyfriend/husband will find out. Not because she genuinely doesn't want to cheat, or, I don't know, because she's just NOT INTERESTED?

I'm highly paranoid and won't make change for customers over $20, on the off chance their bill is fake.)

You could always start walking around with one of those bill testing markers in your unnapants.

Except here in Austin, there's been some kind of ring of people chemically washing five dollar bills and reprinting them as 100's, so the marker thing won't work.

But if you check the little strip inside the bill by holding it up to the light, it'll say USA one, or five, or twenty, or 100 if it's real money depending on the bill

Sorry about the tangent. Back to the bubbies!

The plastic strip test works, but if you don't have a good enough light to check it against, a bleached dollar bill dries out and won't pass the "rub against paper to make a mark" test.

Any good bill should "draw" if you put it against paper and slide your nail across it hard, kind of like carbon paper.

Sorry to say, but those magical counterfeit-detecting pens don't actually work; all that they are is tincture of iodine in a pen. Iodine turns black in the presence of starch, hence the experiment in one of your science classes in school where you put iodine on a potato and it turns black. The whole theory behind the counterfeit detector pen is that counterfeiters would use cheap paper, which has starch in it, as opposed to the special paper that the US Mint uses, which doesn't. Of course, not all types of paper have starch in them, and if counterfeit money was really that easy to detect the counterfeiters would be out of business pretty quickly. Also, it gets you a false positive when your money gets starch on it somehow.

A better way to find out about detecting counterfeit money is to look at the Secret Service's document Know Your Money.

Omigosh, the leg shaking thing's funny. That guy should meet the dude who thought he was so good he could get two girls all night for £500.
