Surprised that there were a few $20 bills in there

Maybe Joe D. is trying to keep his materials costs down?
;)
Hugh Akston|10.15.09 @ 11:27PM|#
Yeah but that Sparta $20 was worth it.
KyleG|10.16.09 @ 12:47AM|#
Indeed!

That was my favorite. Laughed out loud.

Don Herzfeldt is a genius.
|10.16.09 @ 7:57AM|#
Agreed.

Before I even clicked on the comments, I was wondering how many before the first Herzfeldt reference.

I was hoping the post's title would provoke a "I AM A BANANA."

At least it wasn't "MY ANUS IS BLEEDING!"

Does anyone else have some kind of bad defaced bill karma?
I've only ever been passed singles rubber-stamped with the nonsense-summary of some schizo's crusade against the county for his sister getting raped in the workhouse (I gathered), and probably the same guy looking for who shot his brother Reggie for "$2 and a pager" back in b-boy days.
I think I even got the same bill twice, once. Twice.
If any of you know Jennifer Love Hewitt, I could use a house call. Hook a haunted brother up.

Haha this is great stuff... and a potentially brilliant idea.
Forget gold, turn your dollars into priceless works of art! Inflation be damned.

I clicked the GIRL link first. Bad j.

TRON Lincoln is gold.

Washington as Cesar Romero's Joker? I just about fell out.
|10.16.09 @ 8:36AM|#
I laughed out loud at the Lincoln "Headshot".
Does that mean I'm a bad person?
|10.16.09 @ 8:37AM|#
Nope. Everybody likes the moneyshot.

Perhaps your head is too small.

Customer: "How much for this book? Oh, $18.99? Here's a twenty."
Clerk: "Sir, this bill is defaced."
Customer: "Defaced? This! Is! Sparta!" [Kicks clerk into a conveniently placed pit]

Great stuff. Wish I had that kind of talent.
