The Beggar's Exchange Rate

When someone doesn't follow the international exchange rate and takes you for a ride. Usually common among people who have no money.

So I was in Montreal for the weekend, and I couldn't find a Bureau de Change anywhere. The only person I could find was this complete mess of a man looking in trashcans for lunch.

I asked him "can you make change?" and I showed him a fifty dollar bill U.S..

I got back five dollars Canadian.

I was given The Beggar's Exchange Rate.

Scarlet Begonias

Scarlet begonias is the blood that comes back up through the syringe creating little red flower shapes. As used in the Grateful Dead/Sublime song Scarlet Begonias, it is referring to an addiction to heroin. Heroin is often referred to as a girl in songs, including Red Hot Chili Peppers's "Under the Bridge" (the title alone tells you what it is about). So the girl who "wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls" is actually heroin and not an actual girl everybody. "It could be an illusion, but I might as well try, might as well try."

"The one scarlet with the flowers in her hair,
She's got the police coming after me" (as in Scarlet Begonias)

Begone Thot

A meme originally just referring to "That Hoe Over There" in a derisive fashion, now a classic all inclusive word used by Fire Emblem fans to refer to certain male or female characters (usually ones who are fan-service heavy types )-however it is still used both within the fire emblem fandom and throughout the internet as a term of abuse aimed at female sexuality.

my girl 5*Julia: *sees some bitch-ass Thot blue units*

Julia: -special instantly activates-"BEGONE THOT"

"As a member of the Thot killing patrol I cannot permit you to live"

Thot Bow : hey Alm, remember me?
