HNP- Half Nekk'ed Pennies
(Don't get your hopes up Polt, i really mean Pennies)
did you ever start doing something so long ago, that you kinda forgot you still do it? collecting things from places or times even though you have no real use for them?
i'm not sure why i still do, hell, i'm not sure why i started, but i've been collecting pennies.
yes, $.01 in american currency.
now i know you're thinking "oh, so you're not just a nerd,but a coin collecting nerd"
yeah... not quite. see coin collecters look to horde rare coins that could have some value or a unique rarity all their own.
my pennies are anything but rare. in fact they're uncommonly comon. see, back in highschool i used to always gather up my change because i was broke, and sometimes i would look at a coin studdy the little features on it before i dumped into my change machine (like i said, nerd).
at one point i was looking at a coin from 1980 and thought "wow, this penny is as old as i am." so i kept it.
then i found a coin from 1985 and thought "awsome, this is from the year that the car of my dreams was made in"
before i knew it i searching out pennies from all the years i've been alive, i kept track of them, all in order. some were harder to find than other but eventually...
27 years on this planet, and it's not even enough to buy a pack of gum

I think that's super neat, dude. Very original. I save old pennies. Like the old old ones.

Actually, I think that is a very cool idea.
You have a unique mind Exile.
Yes, that is a compliment....I think:)

That's very cool. Might have to look into that myself. But I'd only allow myself to be measured by quarters...nothing less!
