How Much A Dollar Really Cost?

A detrimental question paralysing my thoughts, known to give a gut feeling.. yall

"How much a dollar really cost?
The question is detrimental, paralyzin' my thoughts
Parasites in my stomach keep me with a gut feeling, y'all
Gotta see how I'm chillin' once I park this luxury car
Hopping out feeling big as Mutombo
Twenty on pump six dirty Marcellus called me Dumbo
Twenty years ago, can't forget
Now I can lend him a ear or two how to stack these residuals
Tenfold, the liberal concept of what men'll do
Twenty on six, he didn't hear me
Indigenous African only spoke Zulu
My American tongue was leery
Walked out the gas station
A homeless man with a semi-tan complexion
Asked me for ten rand
Stressin' about dry land
Deep water, powder blue skies that crack open
A piece of crack that he wanted, I knew he was smokin'
He begged and pleaded
Asked me to feed him twice, I didn't believe it
Told him, beat it
Contributin' money just for his pipe, I couldn't see it
He said, my son, temptation is one thing that I've defeated
Listen to me, I want a single bill from you
Nothin' less, nothin' more
I told him I ain't have it and closed my door
Tell me how much a dollar cost

hall of cost

The way complete dumbasses who never payed attention in school spell Holocaust.

Person 1: When I learned about the hall of cost in school, I was so sad.
Person 2: Why are you people acting like the world's only messed up now? What about Slavery? What about the hall of cost? What is with you people?
Person 3: Do either of you know how stupid you both sound?

sunk cost phallus

When you go through the work of setting up a hook up with a dude and he turns out to be much less than advertised in person, but you decide to go for it anyway.

I distinctly stated "no fatties" on my profile but better the bear in here then the bear out there, guess I'm committing a sunk cost phallus.

opportunity cost disaster

Opportunity cost disater or OCD is when the opportunity cost of the strategy that is choosen is greater in extent than a certified disaster would be. In many cased net loss of opportunity is huge, way beyond what occurs in a normal disaster.

Even when things are great and everyone is happy with the chosen alternative like some people are with urban sprawl, the lost opportunity of the strategy can be so large that it equals or surpassses a legally defined disaster or disaster area.

The Iraq war is an opportunity cost disaster. There are a lot of bad ideas out there but these guys put a lot of thought into making it this bad. I can't think of much worse of an alternative, but I am sure they will, as it is getting worse all the time.

Some people living in this urban sprawl think they are in paradise but this is a total opportunity cost disaster. A hurricane wipes out the crops but sprawl eventually wipes out the farm houses and crop land, covers the best soil, eliminates the ecology and native plants and animals, and put's it in a tomb of concrete and asphalt. You can everywhere but it will cost 10 dollars in gas there is no there there.

Team cost

The team cost is basically that loser in the group who always slows you down and makes you lose. They are the one who is good at nothing except sitting on the bench, (sometimes they may fail at that too) Nobody wants a team cost on their team cause well.... they will make you lose. They are the person in the group who nobody wants to touch anything or do anything. The one time they were brought into the match you went from winning (21 -9) to 21-92. She was so bad at netball/basketball that the other team stopped defending her. She is the type of person who scored for the other team and crossed all the lines. She is the type of person who managed to make the team because their mom bribed the coach. She is almost like a bad luck charm because even if she doesn't play or do anything but sit on the bench she will still make her team lose.

Girl: Here comes Lucy
Guy: Who?
Girl: The team cost
Guy: Oh the last time she was in my team she scored for the other team
Girl: Oh the last time she was on my team she injured so many people the coach had to play for our team
Guy: Wow such a team cost.
