Airing of Grievances

(yes, it's a little early for Festivus - and what's with my multiple Seinfeld references this week?!)

But the latest thing that annoys me: PENNIES. Seriously why are they still being made. My wallet was so heavy and barely zippable (?) - and not because of all the cash. Because of the damn pennies. I finally emptied them out yesterday, and counted 34. Seriously? What is the point. Things should just be rounded off. That way I could use more math.

Think about it, people in the U.S. Mint who I'm sure read this and who I'm not sure even actually make coins. But whatever. It's the principle of the thing.
