Well, I got a call about a suspected counterfeit $100 bill at a restaurant today. Looked legit but the texture was off and the manager said it failed the counterfeit pen tester.
I've seen fakes before and I know that most of them are poorly done and the lack of sharpness in the print are a dead giveaway so I promptly whip out my 2C/5761 from my sap pocket, point it upright, and laid the bill on top while it was on so I could take a close look. (It was kind of dark in the managers office.)
Seconds later the manager, who is right next to me, says "WHY IS THAT BILL SMOKING!?"
Oops. :shakehead
Sigh, I'm an idiot...
By the way, the $100 bill was real...
This is the same light that I dropped on the street the first day I had it. It landed in a pile of rancid mayonnaise and ketchup on the ground.
I think this light is cursed.
