   this post was posted twice and the one with comments got removed, sorry – here are the 3 comments…

   notorious -one of my coworkers recently received a one-dollar bill as change which had a big ‘B’ and ‘R’ written on either side of the word on the back of the bill.

   i’m upset with myself that i never thought of that one during my adolescent years.

   The Oracle – Adolecent years hits it right on the head.

   No matter how you feel about defacing money, this belongs on a blog for emo teenagers with mental problems. Not on make.

   At least the laser cutting money arguably had some make value. This is just scribbling on money, what’s it have to do with make?

   At least link to where’s george.

   And anyone else have trouble with the captchas here? It consistantly takes me 3-4 tries to get anything posted.

   ======================

   pt – @The Oracle – if you log in you never need to use a captcha again. recently we changed the captcha to 3 digits (it was 5) which is a lot easier and so far, no complaints besides yours but email me if it keeps happening.

   It’s only illegal if you do this to change the value of the note, or if you are doing it to defraud people.
