Actually it just went up a level to 'all consuming.'

Sports cars? Are you serious? The people of Varying randomisity do not partake in such blatant wastes of money and disrespect to hard-earned dosh by, (cringe), for shame, wasting their money on sports cars. Or at least the government thinks that. No, hopes. Actually, to be honest, it's really just a hunch. Who wouldn't love a sports car?

Back to your main point though, no, anyone couldn't: Before you even got to the Lamborghini store you'd most likely be arrested due to the fact you, mysteriously, were carrying the equivalent of £15, 610 (the exchange rate between CFK and GBP is £2.23 to 1 CFK).

Yes, well done. However, it's called the 'Nestle system'. Varying's capital city is 'Thingamjig City btw sponsored by Nestle'. You see, Nestle filed a lawsuitand sued successfully when they discovered Tymathy Cameron was going to opt for Cornflakes as our national currency, as a pose to the Cheerio. The compensation is estimated to be at zilch by 2017. Shame.

Forgive me for my colloquialism, but OMG peeps I just saw Boris Johnson the Mayor of London as well as the Tory candidate for my constituency right outside my local high street! Shame I didn't catch an autograph. But still, y'know, I SAW BORIS JOHNSON!!! Totally Hyped.

So, firstly, are people arrested for buying cornflakes?

And secondly, back to the 17,000 Cornflakes in a box analogy, would a box of cornflakes cost £37,910?

You'll never know unless you visit Varying randomisity. Perhaps you could visit one of it's newly privatized beaches?

Just looked it up again, it was 7,000, not 17,000. But between you and your device, I'm sure you can do the math yourself.

On a side note, Congrats! Good Job! Yeeha! Way to go! You are the region's new Minister of Regional Affairs! Woohoo!

All this talk about chocolate money makes me think of those ludicrous chocolate coins you would sometimes find in your bag on Halloween, and for some reason, I want me some.

Boys! Get the longboats ready! We're raiding us some chocolate ships!

Where'd you get chocolate coins from? Cornflakes, in England anyway, are a cereal with no chocolate.

Congratulations, Greenlandic arctic! *pops confetti and blows blowout* Now get to work!

Thank you, Varying Randomisity. Novaran Peoples, did you know that Jews (such as yours truly) eat chocolate coins on Chanukkah. We call it gelt (Yiddish for money), and we eat them because there is a custom to give Chanukkah presents (not like Christmas ones, just things like a book or DVD or something, and only from close family members), and in the olden days they would give money to people as a present, that they would then give to charity. True story.

Make sure to apply again whenever you feel like it.

You buy things, such as Cornflakes, with Cornflakes in Varying Randomisity. They are kind of the national currency. Logic. Would you be arrested for buying 3 cornflakes for 3 cornflakes? No, you'd just be incredibly stupid.

Must have misread somewhere. Nestle makes chocolate products too, so I guess I got that from you using Nestle so much.

Muh chocos.

Chocolate coins are often available at Christmas, an old lady I know always gives me a net bag of silver and one of gold. Silver is white chocolate and gold is dark.

Is that net positive or net negative?

Net=small bag/container made of mesh so the coins can be seen inside :) I'd say positive.

Besides Viking Longship inspired battleships, we are thinking of allowing the use of Grizzly Bears as a mounted unit to patrol the Arctic's borders as well as our own.

Battleships are useless nowadays, there's a reason the U.S. Navy doesn't use them anymore.

What I mean is, more modern ships like destroyers are used nowadays.

Yeah, but modern ships no longer have cool names like Ye Olde Stout or The Bitter End... Wait, maybe I'm thinking of pubs.

The Royal Novaran Flotilla uses advanced battle cruisers with sizes that are on par with the United States' Battleships, we just use the term "battleship" since it seems relevant and the name is cool sounding. And besides, who wouldn't want a high-tonnage vessel with dozens of guns and munitions on it?

Guns are meh, only useful for close ranges however. And modern engagements are much longer ranges.

Any U.S. ship right now currently serving, could completely outclass an Iowa class battleship.
