:Yeah, sure. I only put it coz I thought they did at the time, and didn't get around to removing it when I checked. Both are still nasty, though. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] | :Yeah, sure.

Does $1.25 American really convert to $8.00 Canadian? Is it noteworthy? --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:02, 6 July 2007 (UTC) | Does $1.25 American really convert to $8.00 Canadian? Is it noteworthy? --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:02, 6 July 2007 (UTC) | ||
:Nah, it's just a joke. An [[exaggeration]], if you will. I remember a similar joke being used in [[Wikipedia:Toy Story 2|Toy Story 2]], where a book cost $4.95 American and $50.00 Canadian. Nothing more than a lighthearted jab at our brothers up north. {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 03:47, 6 July 2007 (UTC) | :Nah, it's just a joke. An [[exaggeration]], if you will.

[edit] Grossman-Manolios trivia
Is it ok to remove the Grossman - Manolios trivia? I don't see a resemblance at all... --Duke33 19:17, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, sure. I only put it coz I thought they did at the time, and didn't get around to removing it when I checked. Both are still nasty, though. --DorianGray

- Nah, it's just a joke. An exaggeration, if you will. I remember a similar joke being used in Toy Story 2, where a book cost $4.95 American and $50.00 Canadian. Nothing more than a lighthearted jab at our brothers up north. — Has Matt? (talk) 03:47, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
- Just for reference (and maybe fun facts), $1.25US is about $1.32CAN (and $8.00CAN is about $7.57US). --DorianGray 03:55, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
- For more accurate reference, in May 2002, when superhero name was published, US$1.25 was equivalent to CA$1.94 [1]. Loafing
