Topic: "Your money is no good here" = insult?

Anonymous 47ae211000a6a8.34833955 started this discussion 2 months (2008-05-21 15:15:55 UTC) ago:

Apparently, this just means: "you don't have to pay". Is this true? It sounds very insulting to me. As if my money is "dirty" and that I'm banned from the place…

Can somebody please clarify?

I would kindly agree and not pay.
You are correct! My money is no good here. I apologize for trying to pay with this terrible excuse for currency. I will gladly accept your gifts.

It is an insult; but when used jokingly to indicate "you don't have to pay," then it takes on an ironic air that diffuses the obligation created by the gift.

Old Sarge says, "Close but no cigar" It has never been an insult to the best of my knowledge, I have used the expression for 50 years at least 50 times and never did anyone feel it an insult or question my meaning. It could be turned into an insult but why do that when you could simply say "We don't serve your kind here"
