“Irony: having a coke machine reject your dollar bill for it being rolled up too many times” was posted on Twitter by Bob Kostic (and others) on October 11, 2014. The joke probably originated on the Sickipedia website.
That is, the dollar bill was used to snort coke (cocaine) and cannot be used to buy Coke (Coca-Cola soda).
