In the 1980’s in Essex county, Nj, I worked in a restaurant where the wait staff was predominantly white and the dish room was predominantly black. (I maintain I was the last white American man to work as a dishwasher!) whenever any of my coworkers wanted a quarter for change they would always ask for a “case quarter.” No explanation was asked for, none given. But it was fairly widespread urban slang at least in the mid eighties in northern nj.
Just now, I’m watching an old film on tcm, “flying down to Rio”, and one of the principle characters asked another for a “case quarter” again looking for a 25 cent piece for smaller change. No further context given.
Brings back wonderful memories, as well as a few questions!

Get the Case quartermug. A person with little to no thought process or literary ability, a truly moronic man. Unable to read simple words from a power point, or contribute meaningfully to a conversation. Only call someone this to truly destroy their self esteem.

Get the Meat casingmug. That frustrating, infuriating moment when you pull your earphones out of your pocket and they have "magically" tangled themselves up into a labyrinth.

Guy 1- Shitttttttt I swear I folded these before I put them in my pocket.
Guy 2- you can't fight yurbuds bro.

Get the Swirly casemug. A lot of people use 'use case' and 'real use case', well a use case is a just an opinion of the one stating it until its true.
So to me, once the digital asset has in FACT been used as STATED - successfully means that the use case has been validated, hence the term "Validated Use Case". #VUC @BullishDips

At Ripple, we see payments as the first obvious use case for digital assets, today we have a validated use case by partnering with hundreds of banks, financial institutions and other key entities from around the world using XRP.
