Km100? Mb/s100? But $100 is suddenly ok? Americans clearly do it wrong.

What country that uses the dollar sign uses that formatting? In Canada and us I think it’s $18,000. The way anon writes it is tripping me out.

I didn’t say it was ok; just the way we do it in Canada as well as the States. It absolutely makes no sense lol. I’m pretty sure a lot of growing up make the “mistake” of writing 100$.

In Europe they write 100,59€ and to me, that looks odd.

This seems to be a language thing. In the US, Canada, and the UK, we write £20, $20, and €20 (and 50c, 50¢, 50p if using coinage). In Quebec, the currency symbol goes at the end, because French is the provincial language.
In English, 20$ is wrong. In French, $20 is wrong. Use the right system for your language.

I know as a matric enthusiast you HAVE TO get offended the second something imperial is mentioned. Whatever it doesn’t matter if you like it or not, if the story would not be fake and gay, he would have written $Value and not Value $

Based on the English my best guess is the 4chan op is German.
Why the used a dollar sign instead of euro sign idk, probably just 4chan stuff.

Croatia. Anon also has that long croat hair, and being a croat and a channer, he worships a man named hitler, which makes him gay!

Most european countries, I think? At least that’s how I’d write it. And I’d use $ cause it’s just easier for people to understand the value and cause for most keyboards the euro sign is slightly less comfy to use.

Oh yeah, I know the format is Like that in Europe, but the guy won $, right? Seems weird to me that he wrote it like that of they’re from the US or Canada.
