I really liked this story about Guitar Hero, not so much because I’m an admitted GH fanboy, but because it uses the phrase ‘mouse nuts’ to mean, precisely, ‘not a lot of money’.

My old General Manager at Origin used to say this a lot. For him, it was a shorthand way to say, “based on the amount of time we’ve spent talking about this stupid, trivial problem, have we spent more time in employee salaries talking about it than it would have taken to just fix it?”
