Funny money: symbolic value
Intrinsic value is the basis of funny money: Is it a good joke, a good quote? Nicely produced? Symbolic value is layered on top of that.

We're making our own money -- what an expression of sovereignty!

It's an alternative to serious money, which we get to mock. Ours is so superior!

So we might as well make a lot of it, spread it around.

Doing so is another symbolic act, building the funny economy to create a funny future.
