Seriously, there was something on the page about bored nightshift cashiers keeping themselves from going entirely mad. Also, it doesn't take that many pennies for a proof of principle. After that you can go to the bank and get yourself enough pennies for $20 to keep yourself entertained for days. Netflix, beware!
I want to see the penny guy and the cardstacker guy collaborate.
When I was around ten, I learned that you could stack pennies on your elbow and then grab them with your (same) hand. I showed my friend, and it turned into a race to see who could stack the pennies and catch them without covering the floor in pennies. Sadly, I can no longer remember what ungodly number we got up to. Eighty-one pennies is the number that keeps knocking on my cerebrum -- and I can't remember if that was Scott or if it was me, but we were both the undisputed champs for our time and place.
Of course, back then, a penny was the size of a manhole cover. But you tell these kids that...
