These new nickels are screwing me up. When I fumble through my change tray looking for a quarter, I see the buffalo on the back of a nickel and think it's one of the state quarters, only to find out it's damn five cents. Motherfuck nickels anyway! They're too damned big to be only five cents. Nickels are for PUSSIES. Even the word throws me off--I always want to type "nickle."

Heck, let's do away with all change. Except for quarters. Quarters are cool. You got four quarters, you got a buck, and that's nothing to sneeze at. But the rest of this chump change has got to go. How much money must this nation have tied up in pennies at the bottom of sock drawers? I'll bet we could enter a new era of economic prosperity if we announced the impending demise of all change and forced people to use it or get stuck. It'd be hell for the people working the nation's cash tills, I guess, but what the hell? When I worked in the service industry, I'd always rather be tied up counting money than sweeping the floor or some kind of slave shit like that.

Aside from the fact that yeah, anything under a quarter can eat a dick, I like the look of those new nickels. Glad to see the return of the buffalo. Beats the shit out of Monticello.

Yeah, they're actually kind of nice. They just need to make them blue or something.

Yo, I have a supahmahket near me with one of them machines you can put change in. Then you can either get a slip redeemable at a checkout or you can give the money to a charity.

So...Red Cross, groceries, or a romantic dinner with Clawed...it's all up to you.

Yep, I'm right downtown at Temple and Elm! I'm free pretty much any day. Got anything going later this week?

Yap, we have those too, but I scrounged most of the good change a while back. I'd take my pennies, but they have Life Savers and guitar picks and strange bits mixed in with them, and I'm afraid they would bust the machine and I'd end up with a bill instead of a credit. :\

Fuck you, change is the balls. I love change. The only problem I have is with those change purses they put on women's wallets because they're too small for people with normal-sized fingers and I sit at the drive-thru trying to get out a dime and 2 pennies (a large Diet Coke is $1.67) and I always pull out three pennies or three dimes because they look alike. Oh my heavens, this was a dull comment.
