Why didn't you buy a lot of more minus apples? I would be rather welthy if I bought a few millions of these apples, and be charged minus 2 dollars each.

I go to an apple store and order minus five apples. The store owner hands me a bag of something and i go home. I open the bag and dump out the contents. What comes out of the bag? If it's nothing, shouldn't the apple guy have to refund my money or should he have paid ME for the minus apples, and why didn't i order 100 minus apples thereby making it a capitalist's dream?

The manager at my local apple store is wise to you guys! He offered me this deal;
"take as many apples of what type you want but tomorrow you must give me back that number squared"
I said sure - told him what apples I wanted and came out ahead the next day. How come?
No, that can't be right.........

I took an imaginary apple - (made imaginary apple sauce with it.)
Next day I had to give him a minus apple - so I took a real apple and made real apple sauce.
Those of you that disagree with this solution have no imagination.
