For reference: $0.25 in 1940 would be a bit less than $5 today. And would have been a generous tip. C... Technically, $0.25 now is still less than $5 today.
What it means

A screenshot of a Reddit-style comment thread discussing how much $0.25 from 1940 would be worth today. One commenter says it would have been a generous tip, and another makes a deliberately literal correction that $0.25 is still less than $5 today. The joke is a pedantic reading of the comparison, used as a reaction to overly technical or needlessly literal comments.
