If he thinks pennies are useless, he should see how much it costs to make nickles…

I don't know, I think I was the one person who didn't really give a fuck who one the election this year as long as the diet coke in my school changed to regular.
ReplyJosh VanArman March 17, 2017 2:13 am
why not just donate the money we wouldn't waste creating pennies to charities that they generally go to anyway?
ReplyJm Singh March 17, 2017 2:13 am
YEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!! I hate pennies, and now people know why! However, it's really sad this is the episode I'm commenting on. I guess my comment is worth about a penny considering the importance of the subject of this episode compared to every other topic that's been covered. ……… I still hate pennies.
ReplyPartariothegoth March 17, 2017 2:13 am
I always pick up pennies that I see on the ground unless they're in some gross substance I don't recognize or something, but I've always been weird.

This is why we need digital currency.

This is why the govt. hates the internet. It's showing us all the bullshit they're doing and forcing them to change and hold accountable a system that threw them overboard 30+ years ago
ReplyJJ Yi March 17, 2017 2:13 am
WAT. A LOBBY for pennies? That's it, I'm done.
That does explain why we still have it despite constantly talking about its uselessness. That's for bringing more attention to it, Oliver

Anyone like coins?

We did this in Russia. No more 1 and 5 pennies. Didn't miss anything. But I bet the accountants are happy.

On reddit a guy claimed that he got a copy of Civilization V for free at Walmart. Walmart had pruced it at one cent but a penny-like currency does not exist in Canada so they rounded down.

But John! What will I make my coin-portrait of Abraham Lincoln out of?
ReplyPenitent Hollow March 17, 2017 2:13 am
And maybe you guys can look into the one dollar coin again. When I visit America, I hate feeling like I'm rolling in the dough only to realize that my wallet only feels so full because of the 17 raggedy old singles I have thus far neglected to spend.

in 5th grade i made an art project out of 2 or 3 hundred pennies and last year i finally threw it away lol
ReplyNotta Reelname March 17, 2017 2:13 am
all it did was make me sleep less the only half of the year when i neede to do something.
ReplyLandon Letterman March 17, 2017 2:13 am
Someone is going to have to explain to me the value of a currency system that is constantly inflating anyway. A halfpenny gets phased, out a penny gets phased out, who's to say in a hundred years nickels won't be gone, and we'll be making funny eyes at the dime next, while everyone looks forward to the invention of a $1,000 bill. Not to mention that the dollar will become the new Penny one day.
ReplyCameron Goode March 17, 2017 2:13 am
I throw whatever pennies are in my pockets into campfires when I go camping or my neighbors start their fire.
ReplyJessica Justus March 17, 2017 2:13 am
my only issue with this is I collect coins and I still need some back dated ones for my penny collection I'm kinda obsessive about my collections. And finding coins that aren't being minted can be a bit hard. Otherwise I completely understand and agree.

The only reason y the pennies were still on the ground is because i wasn't there

Actually, we can get rid of most terrorism (and many other problems) by eliminating Islam. Most terrorists and terror groups are Islamic.
