An admittedly dated reference at this point but for us older folk- Better Off Dead was a 1985 John Cusack movie that featured a notable scene with a paper boy hounding someone for the 2 dollars he was owed :)

I see, I don't consider a film from 1985 to be particularly dated, that's just a year younger than me after all but I've never seen the film in question and had no idea it existed. I think I've only seen John Cusack in one film and that was "Identity".
The title of my story is a play on the name of one of the characters "Bettoore" which is pronounced like an elongated "better".
Hm, well you are missing out on a few good John Cusack films, Ferris Buellers Day Off and Glory come to mind off the top of my head. Enjoy my meager upvote for a failed movie reference :)
Well thanks for the upvote, I don't consider it meager. I'm going to take your comments as movie recommendations too and watch them when I have the chance, so thanks for that too.
Glory is the better of the 2, though being in the UK I'm not sure what your interest level in the US civil war is. It is a really well done movie and based off of the actual events, has Morgan Freeman, Denzel, and a few other notable actors.
