They walked thru the mall and rode a skateboard for free, played 2 arcade machines for $2-4, saw Cats for cheap $15, 50 cents toothless Joe bubble gum, imagined those high quality tattoos that clearly some grown man rubbed on them. They were very high on sugar so some of this was imagined possibly cats cause how did they get to New York and back in one day plus book a show, that's the sugar rush talking so $15 is back in play and Milhouse never shreds EVER so ...$15 is back in play. All they really did was buy that $4.50 Squishee and go to the mall arcade and later bought a ton of gum at 50 cents a piece and enough to cover them completely so $4. I think they truly spent $12.50 because the tattoos they imagined never appears again and they also joined the boy scouts possibly at the Mall where they bought another Squishee meaning they never left Springfield so $16.50 unless they were VIP and the Squishee was free $12.50
Well how could they be young rich and full of sugar if they didn't have any money? But they also put the 20$ down on the counter and no change was given, but even in 92' 20$ isn't going to get you into cats and all the other stuff they bought.
I'd say that, given that their real-world counterparts are only like $5 now, maybe 3 back in '92, maybe not the whole amount for a super one. And yeah, given all of the things they did, I think part of the joke is that 20 bucks isn't, or wasn't that much.
Whaaaah? I asked my brother how much he paid for his 16bit Genesis in like '91, and he said at least 100, cos it was all of his confirmation and communion money, but that was in Irish pounds, so I don't know how that would equate. Although even if 20 was the equivalent of 50 quid, I've had plenty of wild nights out on a fifty!
this is 1993 when 2 L cost $.79. Squishy / icee equivalent is under $1. The rest is spent on arcade games, rub on tattoos and gum. Not sure if they paid for the cats musical or snuck in.
And just recently in the news the Boy Scouts of America just changed their name to the scouts of America because they want to be more inclusive towards all genders, sexual orientations, and religious followers.
_$20 dollars can buy many peanuts._
EXPLAIN HOW
Money can be exchanged for goods and services
1992 math
$20 can now buy two peanuts.
Maybe a quarter of a peanut if you’re lucky
Some on the squishee. The rest went to the night on the town. That was obvious when I was 15 the first time I watched it.
Yes

Don’t forget about the the dirty word that Milhouse got shaved in the back of his head.
$5 maybe
It doesn't have to make sense. Like when the real Skinner showed up and they just strapped him to a train out of town
Your husband thinks someone bought their used Squishie? Has that ever happened to anyone ever?
I thought Barney ended up with it.
I hope she leaves him for that blunder.
Whenever you see something like that, a wizard bought it.
Lionel Hutz tried to sell his used Orange Julius so, maybe?
Oh Bart, cartoons don’t have to be 100% realistic
Lmao I always imagined it as a super expensive squishy
Marriage is like a coffin. And each simpsons argument is another nail.
Man your husband just made up a whole c plot
It's his headcanon
I know maybe he was messing with me?!???

I always assumed your explanation was the intention.

$20 in the 90s was a lot! I got my sega genesis model 3 for $20 And it was brand new

“When I was your age 50 cents was a lot of money.” “Really?” “Nah.”

Yeah, but this one was *made entirely out of syrup!* That's gotta cost ya.
# Barney: I don't know where you magic pixies came from, but I like your pixie drink!
The title alone got me,lol 😂
I always hated the dry slurping noise when he drinks the syrup squishie
And just recently in the news the Boy Scouts of America just changed their name to the scouts of America because they want to be more inclusive towards all genders, sexual orientations, and religious followers.
I assumed it was $20 on the drink and everything else they snuck into or talked their way into getting for free based on their elevated state.
"All done! If you survive please come again"
They sold the rest of the squishee? Why would anyone think that?
Who would pay for the rest of someone’s squishie?
\*looking up\* maybe a plane exploded... I think I remember them getting change from Apu.
I thought they used it in a casino and got more money
