so these "non-fungible token" things.... what's stopping you from funging one
-F

@Felthry nothing. literally nothing at all. the NFT "community", such as it is, mocks people who point this out as "right-clickers", for how you save images from the internet.

@lorxus i was kind of making a joke because i don't actually know what it means to funge something

something to do with replacing it?

@Felthry Oh! Funging something is replacing it with or substituting it for something else that serves the same (or very similar) purpose. It's a backformation (ish) of fungible, but it's pretty uncommon. You could talk about funging expenditures on wine against beer, for instance.
