None of you are making any sense. I hope you're all drunk as hell.

But I am honestly interested in why you think a .0006% (or whatever absurdly small percentage it would be) tax on me changing pesos to dollars would be worse than the 12% VAT I paid to buy medicine?

I really have no idea. I don't know why you're so interested in the price, hard up for sex are you?
I do however know how many homes for families that would build. A decent home can be built there for $10k. Let's see... say $80bn. We could build decent homes (not that we would, but we could) for 8 million third world families.
Nothing substantial there...

Though since youv'e downgraded your house hunting from a sex palace to a sex mansion, you're probably getting a little more into the range of possibility there. Next it'll be a sex condo, and then a sex studio, and then a sex bunk in the YMCA... which is probably right up your alley.

Jesus, even your one-liners are overwrought.
edit:Abnormalities include verbosity, abrupt transitions, literal interpretations and miscomprehension of nuance, use of metaphor meaningful only to the speaker, auditory perception deficits, unusually pedantic, formal or idiosyncratic speech, and oddities in loudness, pitch, intonation, prosody, and rhythm.
Interesting.

Speech may convey a sense of incoherence; the conversational style often includes monologues about topics that bore the listener, fails to provide context for comments, or fails to suppress internal thoughts. Individuals with AS may fail to monitor whether the listener is interested or engaged in the conversation. The speaker's conclusion or point may never be made, and attempts by the listener to elaborate on the speech's content or logic, or to shift to related topics, are often unsuccessful.
Wow, this is scarily accurate.
