or it could just mean, yknow, from Brazil

yknow the country?

:wink:

from the phrasing ("i have a brazillian dollar$", rather than "i have brazillian dollar$" ("i have a quantity of an object" vs "i possess this type of object")) and spelling (brazilian has 1 "L", it's spelled with 2 "L"'s like "million", "billion", "zillion", etc.), no

oh dang i just killed a joke

I killed my own joke, but daisies did you nail that coffin lid shut.

Well done on the exact explanation, though.

English is a stupid language that doesn't lend itself well for puns to non-native speakers.

What are even Brazilian Dollars?

It's a dumb joke based on the way English speakers tend to make up a word for large numbers.

We're all familiar with million, billion, trillion, etc, but sometimes for dramatic effect someone will say "I wish I had a bajillion dollars" or "kazillion dollars" or whatever.

It's a joke because "Brazilian" sounds like it could be a terrible joke way for an American to say a high number.

the joke is now explained, and therefore not amusing

Oh, I get it.

Eugh, that joke is deader than an incinerated corpse now. I didn't even know it was possible to kill a joke that hard and I tend to kill them myself, but jeez, y'all took the cake.

On a side note, is it safe to tune in again? Is the storm of metal gear gone? Because I never enjoyed it.

This is actually the last Metal Gear comic I had in my queue! I hope everyone who likes the games enjoyed METAL YEAR, even if it was actually two years. This goofy series means a lot to me, apparently. And to everyone who doesn't care about them at all: SORRY, YOU CAN COME BACK NOW

I haven't had a chance to play the game yet, so the joke is fairly new to me. I knew you can brush your Cockfighting Society now (Katie even already made a joke related to that), but not that you can do that during battles.
