Counterfeit money? It’s movie prop cash. That shit is obvious. I have some from a long forgotten marketing joke.

“Counterfeit money” lmao what a joke. Online commenters are so big on this legalese upgrade business. This guy had some joke currency on him and it’s now “counterfeit money”. Next thing you know you’re going to be calling kids using twigs to play cops and robbers “brandishing replica firearms”.

Oh oh, I know, we could call water balloons “simulated improvised explosive devices”. Coffee pods? “Psychoactive drugs”.

“Counterfeit money” hahahaha. I declare your comment “domestically sourced misinformation”.

AFAIK a kid can get in trouble at school for using a twig as a pretend gun.

Also, coffee really is a powerful drug, just that it's not regulated.

Interesting that you are “spreading knowledge about unregulated use of psychoactive drugs and assault weapons”. Clearly something to be ashamed of.
