And you saw the epitaph on Nick Fury's grave in CA:TWS, right?

Paraphrasing Sam Kinison, but maybe they should just to where the water isn't?

Yes — because I have a phone that won't break if it drops on the floor.

And keep in mind inflation. $2500 in 1985 is over $5300 in today's money. The fully pimped iMac is a bargain by that measure.

Three bucks a month extra for 4K isn't really worth it (especially since I don't have a 4K TV), but the extra two streams is a good deal. Kid #1 is watching her dopey Disney channel stuff, Kid #2 is watching her dopey teen drama stuff, and all I get is "not available" for my content.

Assuming no porn, I'll go with the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I want to drink at the Prancing Pony.

US-centric typing detected. What about keyboard layouts like AZERTY and QWERTZ? How about typing Ł or Ñ without using weird shifties? Or Cyrillic or Greek? Or Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, etc.? Even if you won the QWERTY battle, the keyboard war would be far from over. Best to just let it be....

As long as we can still drink around the world, I'm OK with this.

Actually, the Coinage Act of 1965 made all coinage minted by the Federal Government since 1793 legal tender. So while it would be absurd to spend it, legally, you can.

Since a half-cent in 1857 is worth 14 cents in today's money, that means that the smallest denomination people considered "worth it" was worth about what a quarter is worth today. This makes sense in the real world — there used to be penny candy vending machines, but now no vending machine takes less than a quarter.

Probably still worth a couple bucks, if the date is readable. You could always spend it — it is still legal tender for three cents.

Did you know that $1 is also 1000 of something? That denomination is called a mill, and was part of the original system of coinage in the United States. Yet even in the late 1700s a mill was worth so little as to not be bothered making a coin for it. The mill lives on, however, in gasoline prices which for some reason

Good point, and it's important to keep in mind that only the physical manifestation of one cent would be eliminated. The cent denomination would live on in bank accounts, credit card statements, and so on.

The reason why you hate having coins in your pockets is because they aren't worth anything. If coins actually had value, you wouldn't mind — and you would never have that many, because you would spend them.

There's a very simple reason why: continued production of dollar bills. Every other country that has replaced a paper bill with a coin eliminated the paper bill at the same time, and the results were successful. Only the US did not, and it failed.

And human driven trains never crash, correct?

I like how the list has Boomerang as well as Gmelius, which has a feature to block Boomerang. OK, apps: FIGHT!

Oh, man, Atari Football. So many pinched palms...

1860 mAh battery? No sale. I can never leave the three days of juice my Razr's 3300 mAh battery gives me.
