A lot of this is a much more adorable version of what happens when we let our cats into the same room:

Doesn't he have a Prime Minister or a Queen he could nominate instead?

Where are you from, or at least which continent?

Look yo, like this movie or hate this movie, whatever. But can we please stop acting like having money makes you immune to boredom or loneliness or any other type of problems? It's not true, and it's harmful.

Come on, be honest. Who HASN'T traveled internationally and not declared something?

Last time for me, I accidentally smuggled some leftover prednisone from an allergic reaction while on vacation in mexico. When I realized I had just drug smuggled, I may have peed my pants a little bit.

My grandma had The Bag that she would bring with her if she would have to leave the house for a couple of hours (ie a birthday visit). It was a heavy ass bag with her savings because she didn't trust banks. After she died, we found out she carried 15,000 around in that bag for years.

If she's like my grandma, it was all in $5 bills.

$40k, that would be around P1.6 million here. She'd be living a lavish lifestyle here with that kind of money.

I feel like this is within normal grandma levels of nutty. I mean possibly shady but seriously my friends grandma would steal ziplocks of soup from the old country buffet and mine watered down ketchup.

"$2,000 dollars sewn into the strap of her bra." That must have been the mother of all foundational garments!

As a Detroiter who's been to Canada plenty of times through the most lax border in the world- no idea.

For real, I love this lady. In her girdle. Because who still wears girdles. Good for you, lady! Stick it to the man!

I sold my car to make a downpayment on a house. I delivered the car, filled out forms and took a bus home. I had $8000.00 in cash on me. I have never sweated out a 20 minute bus ride like that. Every other passenger looked like Willie Sutton to me

She's carrying that much on her person because she didn't want to pay taxes/international taxes on it.

Common knowledge that you have to declare more than 10,000?

Mind if we call you Groot?

Several years back I was homeless in San Francisco. I could often find friends to stay with, but not every night. The night of this tale I was trying to sleep in the park, and to help me sleep and forget about my shitty predicament I had bought a big jug of Carlo Rossi. Around midnight I'm good and sloshed, but still…

This story is only 'insane' because it features so many random freeway drivers who actually gave a crap about saving a dog. I was on highway 80 south in Oakland and suddenly in front of me, the cars had slowed way down and the highway ahead was practically empty. A few cars were slowly passing by on the right most…

We did the whole big "see your country" trip when I was 14 and went out to the maritimes for a month, to relax on the lovely beaches of Atlantic Canada (seriously) and just have a generally relaxing time.
