        @ChrisMaslanka @BoingBoing Indeed, more logical would have been either "boob or foot" or "bra or sock"

        @hartkp @BoingBoing Used to write "boob- or sock-money" for "boob [money] or sock [money]". I hadn't noticed the extra level you allude to!

        @ChrisMaslanka @BoingBoing I applied implicit parentheses, and distributivity.

        @BoingBoing @tmbg This actually makes sense- polymer Canadian banknotes no longer have the "sweat wicking" capabilities of paper money

        @BoingBoing Boobs function as currency in some places, but I guess not at this store.
