Well, if real interest rates are negative, everything reverses, and you should start favoring more expensive things now.
Also, it's possible to be realistic and say things like "if 2 + 2 = 5, then 5 = 2(1+1) and therefore isn't prime".
At the moment, TIPS (US government securities that pay interest + whatever inflation turns out to be) trade at negative yield for maturities up to five years.
That's the point of monetary stimulus, among other things.
