Don't know about the US, but I know in England, above a certain value (five pounds I think), pennies are no longer legal tender. Lot of people don't know that, but it's true. I would imagine the US is similar. No doubt to stop stupid pricks like this.
Why? They're attention seeking publicity whores. Yes, if you dig through you can see they completely cheated and bought in bulk beforehand, and read their pseudo social commentary, but most people don't dig for details. They'll see this, skim it and say "I don't know why poor people complain" and bring it up as a talking point whenever they talk about poverty to their friends. Friends like you Ashley who have fallen for their nonsense hook, line and sinker.
They did not blog about it for OUR benefit. Like all bloggers, they did it because they're self important blowhards looking to have their egos stroked and get their Andy Warhol approved 15 minutes.
Someone should start a new site. "Beat a self righteous blogger to death every day for 30 days". God knows there's enough out there.
This is a BS experiment as they bought in bulk quantities that nobody actually living in poverty could afford, nor would probably have space to store.
It's just another blog by a couple of attention seeking, condescending self important douches saying "look at us doing something meaningful" when in actuality what they're doing is damaging the cause of those living in genuine poverty by seemingly highlighting how you can eat properly on a dollar a day, when in actual fact you need to spend a huge chunk of cash in advance to so, cash that people living in poverty naturally wouldn't have. But of course pointing out up front how utterly pointless your experiment is means a lot less hits to your blog.
If they ever do it PROPERLY and don't cheat, and genuinely live like those living on a very limited income are forced too, that being living hand to mouth and only being able to buy small quantities of food, instead of the 5 pound packages of yeast, 25 pounds of rice etc... they bought this time, then go right ahead and blog about it, because reading and watching two self aggrandizing egotists starve to death would actually be worth following and would highlight what is facing those living in real poverty and, you know, serve an actual purpose rather than their current exercise in self congratulatory masturbation.
"I said "Pretend you've got no money" But she just laughed And said "oh you're so funny". I said "yeah? Well I can't see anyone else smiling in here"
Killjoy's like that need a kicking. Santa is one of the few pieces of magic left in a cynical, cold world. As a parent myself my wife and I have debated long and hard about how to do the Santa thing.
For this bitch to come out and say that is friggin' despicable.
Record snowfall across the US. Something like 64 cold temperature records broken in the last month or so. London just had its biggest snowfall in a huge number of years. Where I used to live has just had snow for the first time in 20 years. There is snow forecast for Austin, Texas apparently as well.
I really don't understand this hatred toward fruitcake. Perhaps people who hate it have only had really shitty ones. My mother-in-law makes the most AWESOME fruitcake and I look forward to it every year.
Tokyoflash watches are retarded.

But she just laughed
And said "oh you're so funny".
I said "yeah?
Well I can't see anyone else smiling in here"

Global what?
But worth reading purely for that delightful bottom.
As for the dress, interesting. The girl in it... Gorgeous! I'd walk over hot coals just to kiss her hand.
