Conversation with a muggle

D: OK, but if I did earn enough I'd definitely buy a yacht.
Me: But there are so many better things you could spend that amount of money on.
D: Like what?
Me: Well, like yarn...
D: You could buy a lot of yarn for that money.
Me: Exactly.
D: Alright, when I buy a yacht I'll buy you a piece of yarn.
Me: What, one piece?
D: A really nice piece. How much is a piece of yarn?

Heh. How big is the piece, and what is made out of?

Oh good grief. Where did you find this person? Obviously his (I'm assuming this is a him) heart overfloweth with generosity.

Heehee...got to love 'em! (Since a skein is almost always contiguous, it does count very well as a piece)
Is kindness offered by the world's nicest man? :)

A piece? How generous. Although, if it were a piece as long as a yacht...
