Methinks there must be a number of conversations that go along like this.

Printer: Thank you for ordering this beautiful sign. That will be a million dollars.

Green Grocer: Why so much? You never charged me so much before?

Printer: You said you wanted a word in bold.

Green Grocer: So? So what?

Printer: Well bold words cost about a million dollars.

Green Grocer: Well maybe it doesn't need to be "bold." How do you make an emphasis if you don't put it in "bold?"

Printer: Say. I have "a really good idea," and it's really "cheap."
