Lol,
But a little closer to home, we have:
Footlong 12” or 12 cents
Iceman measuring in a 14” (similar to one of those long iceblocks) = 14 cents
And of course there is SirKnight with his yard stick – which takes us closer to $1.
Just be careful of Yellowman. A jaundice infection might take us back to 2”
