monies

[scientz]

I got a coin from Japan the other day when buying some food. That is slightly more significant of a mistake than getting American/Canadian pennies/dimes/quarters mixed up.

ugh I hate when I get them because I can't exchange them for anything! I mean they won't take them anywhere and I can't put them in the vending machine and my bank won't take them. wtf am I supposed to do with foreign money. I don't even live anywhere near canada but I've got 7 canadian cents.

i got a bunch of american coins over the christmas break when the dollars were equal and canadian stores had no problem taking them. we were waiting for our big moment and we got it!

HA! Nice face, no-face. Way to have a face.
That is quite odd, though. Are Japanese tourists common in Holland? Tricky tricky.

[scientz]

I don't show my face, not since the accident.
No, there aren't many Japanese tourists, or Asian tourists for that matter. Or Asians, period.

Liar-pants. I think I've seen it.
Hmmm. That is really weird about the coin then. Maybe a coin-collector with an odd sense of humor.

Someone is out there, fucking up the system using foreign coins and unaware cashiers.

[sodamnangsty]

not. good.

the boys have a little lion bank that goes "rawr" when you put a coin in, and they always ask for coins, so yeah, i guess it came in handy.

maybe the coin is the key for a series of weird and strange coincidences that will change your life
or maybe it's just a japanese coin
i would keep it, just in case
