I just think they're relatively useless for this day and age, one L. If one is worried about their correct change being short 2 or 3 pennies then perhaps they need to reexamine their life choices up to that point.

Oh, and you still claim that I called you a monkey (back when I thought you were Hispanic).<br /><br />Wow. Revelatory. Incidentally, not wasting anymore time on your perpetual victim hood and whining is another of the revelations.
