i like how my interpretation is completely different to everyone else.
naturally, if you were to be carrying a unit of monetary value, you would probably want the one that requires less space, and weight, though the primary factor here is weight. (mass if you want to fucking tumblr me)
30 dollars in bills is more valuable than 30 dollars in coins because it’s more portable.
They’re fungible, and can be transferred into each other easily. They have the same value but different situational utility.
Value is not and cannot be derived solely based on utility in a vacuum. This is proven by the marginal utility of too many titties. While one pair of titties may have value based on their utility, each subsequent pair of titties decreases in value, as you only have so many hands and so much time.
Sure but it quickly becomes meaningless. Once you have a billion titties, now you don’t even have the time to look at them all. That’s why a sharp increase on the rate of the progressive annual titty tax is very important.
The actual value of the money doesn’t change though, and I think that was the person’s misinterpretation as well, your implicit preference can be different based on how the money is presented but it’s still 30 dollars, bills, coins, stock, gold, whatever. Portability can change, ease of use can change, mass can change, shape can change, but 30 bucks is 30 bucks and titties be titties.
this as well. But to me, it’s not that it’s the same, it’s that one is different from the other, in an unrelated manner.
One could argue coins have the distinct advantage in this case of being highly divisible, which is very true.
The question here was not whether titties were tittes, because that’s obvious. But whether one titty was better than the other titty. I think the point here is demonstrating that it’s not about the monetary value. It’s about how you perceive it.
Yes, agree, perception is important. I suppose the root of the disparity in our thinking is what “better” even means, because I’d argue that in and of itself is perceptual with no real definitive answer, at least when it comes to forms of money or titties, you can come up with all kinds of reasons for liking or disliking different forms.
But now I’m really just fascinated by the amount of mental energy we’re all putting into a boob metaphor. Feels like analyzing a koan.
yes. one has drawbacks for one set of preferences, the other has drawbacks in different ways, for example, if you ran a shop that needed to give change, or you were going to the casino to play slots, or arcade machines, or you were covering a floor in coins decoratively, or you needed to club someone about the head with a heavy sack…

Too many titties - does not compute, pls provide a better metaphor.
i dub thy titty economics
gotta fucken mouth don’t i

it’s not just a boob metaphor,
it’s a titty metaphorin fact, it’s philosophy under the guise of titties.The equivalent to feeding dogs medication covered in peanut butter.

ah yes, covering my floor in titties in a decorative manner.
the ahegao rug to match the shirt, kimono and fedora ofc
