Why'd my emoji show up as four question marks? @imgur please do something about this!

Someone said some of the older emojis show up but the new ones are formatted differently or something so the newer ones don't work.

Saying you are a gruplinkillionaire is the same as saying you are a dollarillionaire, which makes no sense. 1/2
Arrowpuppet
2/2 What it should be is a gruplink-millionaire, meaning you have millions of gruplinks.
RomeyRoone09
Actually it's intentionally vague to imply the largest possible "____llionaire" number you can think of. Definitely above millionaire.

All I can see when reading this is the massive inflation that the sudden influx of sugar water will cause. It'll be like China's inflation-
Cheomesh
Depends - if it is simply consumed, likely no issue. If it is stowed, yeah it'll drop in value.
ElPoloDiablo
Well he said that it's like gold to them. I imagine that it's perishable but also used as a currency, like rice in early Japan.

Frankly, the man's a fool. See that helicopter? If they can build helicopters, there's nothing stopping them from exporting them.
MyNameIsImmaterial
Drones as toys are increasingly popular, so why not reinvest your sudden massive wealth in the local economy, and have them build drones?
CliffordJohnsonMiller
Fuck it, they're small, they could work on microchips easily.

I totally agree! But I wanted to go with an example that didn't require any technology importation, something that was homegrown.

How did he get 350 pounds of ants to the bank? Ypu can't just carry that much.
woeuntothee
How did they count them?
Tinkrr
Is that the weight of the ants released or the cost in currency? I'm asking for a friend.

BearBombs
But now I need to know what his plan was. Release them all to get everyone to evacuate so he can loot the registers? Or >
BearBombs
Did he train the ants to go into the safe, chomp through paper and plastic, and bring the cash out one bill at a time?
usersubbordercontrol
Just make the ants eat the money, then you use the ants to forge money
TheBestRussian
Yeah, how exactly do you get your hands onto that many ants? Our record was "a ventilation system-full" of fruit flies, so maybe like 1,000
sandshoesman
actually it would be pretty brilliant to pull up with a couple guys in beekeeper suits and release tons of bees or hornets and quickly 1/2
eyrieking
its not hard to rob a bank. Tellers are taught to give the money to anyone who asks. The hard part is not getting caught.
sandshoesman
I mean yeah. It's not like I actually meant that would work well.
sandshoesman
2/2 rob the tellers of the money they have there and make a quick get away. It would be so fast and easy
Ewanator
*it would bee
sandshoesman
Heyyyyyy well played
hashbaz
I googled it and it's apparently 1.5 million ants per pound.
mrcalifornian
If you multiply that by the 350 pounds from the article, that's over 9000 ants
NightfallEverdark
I have to imagine 480 million ants set him back at least a few bucks, and I want to know if he stole enough to make a profit.

You can buy 60 ants for $6.98

So you'd have to be a billionaire to buy that many ants

Holy shit that's so many fucking ants

That's like, 525 million ants
CreepiestThingIveSeenAllWeek
So how many nests is that? Hives? Nest hives?

He's oversaturating the market with sugar water. Soon sugarwater will be as worthless to the ants as gruplinks are to humans.

Spike it with some sort of drug, keep them coming back.
lilmonkie
Lace it with cocaine.
Jaymezians
Maintain absolute control over all the sugar water. If they find another, nearby source of sugar, go to Costco and get a 10 pound bag.
