Me saying "the IOU turns into gold" would be fine if I dealt in actual gold, but you should instantly be able to see how retarded it is when I say "the IOU is better than gold because it's gold but faster, therefore when I say I accept gold at my shop, I don't expect you to think I will actually accept gold you bring me, I expect you to understand that gold means IOUs"

The most insane part is the actual claim of accepting the underlying asset while not doing it
A shop retarded enough to accept paper and refuse gold is a classic
But I never heard of a shop retarded enough to say "we accept gold" when they didn't - that's new lightning cult retardation
Accepting bitcoin over lightning. Is accepting the asset. Not paper. This is where your paper gold argument falls apart. It’s not the same as accepting an IOU.
If you say you accept gold over paper, and that's accepting gold, not paper, I'll go along with it as long as you're actually dealing in gold, not paper. What you're saying would kind of make sense because we have figures of speech like "turning it into gold" by redeeming it, and if you actually do that, you have actual
gold.
I would wonder why you act so weird about it. It would seem kinda like a potential mental health issue I'd hope you'd outgrow. But it would be fair enough to respect the edgy viewpoint.
When you add NOT DEALING IN REAL GOLD, it falls apart.
I'm not gonna accept you saying "I accept gold but I'm not accepting your gold because it's not paper, and you can't blame me for the confusion because paper is gold."
At that point, I'm not going along with it.
This makes zero sense.
It makes 100% sense.
Your cognition is shutting down because you can't handle admitting you were wrong.
Ok 👌
That "passive aggressiveness" isn't helping your mental health
I’ll be sure to call a therapist 🫡
They probably can't really help. It still seems like you need to switch up how you handle weed. Either you're smoking so much it doesn't help your reading comprehension anymore, or you're using it too recreationally instead of using it to comprehend stuff.
