Yeah you ever run into seals that look fine but are actually dried out and cracked? I've had a few close calls with old gear where a quick spit test saved me from a bad day underwater.

And that's the thing, right? Parker Brothers didn't really need to do anything special because Monopoly is so baked into pop culture that "Monopoly money" became the default term for any game cash. It's like how people call all facial tissues Kleenex or all adhesive bandages Band-Aids. Even if you buy some random off-brand board game, everyone still calls the bills Monopoly money out of habit. So yeah, it's lazy branding but it's also genius because now you can't think of play money without thinking of their game first.

Does grading math facts really relate to actual math skills? Bootcamps teach a very specific kind of problem solving that's more about patterns than arithmetic. The boring parts of coding are just a different kind of patience you already had as a teacher.
