Sloooow day today.
It’s so slow, I’m actually sitting here staring at the plants on my desk. Oh yeah, that’s what I was going to do…I was going to calculate how many pennies it would take to fill up a 10′x10′x8′ room. I did it once, I was trying to figure which was worth more; a house, or the amount of pennies it would take to fill all the rooms of the house. I’m very sure that it was the pennies, but I’m going to do some calculations now to prove that.
But besides that hopla, here’s some SlantyWars goodness for your Thursday morning pleasure.
Note the extravagant use of colour. I’m really trying to expand my colour base to use all 16 colours in MS Paint.
“Living easy, living free,
Season ticket on a one-way ride.
Asking nothing, leave me be,
Taking everything in my stride.”

Damn, that’s like .. art or something. You’ve definitely surpassed me =). How’d you get the colours into the picture? Magic?
You should start selling framed prints =).
I had an excellent teacher to learn from…
(SNIFF!) Group hug!
Alrighty, I’ve worked it out. All dimensions are in feet.
Penny dimension :
Height = 0.00492
Width = 0.06234
Volume = 0.00001912048 (square volume for ease of calculation)
Room volume (10′x10′x9′) = 900
(900 / 0.00001912048) / 100 = $470,699.48
So a single room filled with pennies is worth more then the value of most houses around here.
PLUS, those pennies are stacked side by side rather then a honeycomb pattern as my calculations were based on a square penny. My guesstimation would be that you could fit more into a honeycomb pattern…but that would take some calculus to figure out the spacing difference between the two patterns, and I’m not up to that yet. The plants are calling for my attention again…
Ok, it’s been worked out. Using a honeycomb pattern, the room can fit now a total value of pennies of $510,519.62.
Over an 8% improvement.
No math was harmed in the making of these numbers…
I fucking hate you. You fucking puss sucking turd, get a real job. Some of us have to fight tooth and nail to keep our jobs while you just sit there and try and keep your brain from turning into a turnip.
Fucker.
Oh, and how much would that room full of pennies wheigh?
weigh
160.14 tons give or take a penny or two.
Next question?
His brain is already a turnip.
Some people get benefits such as being located right outside the Penthouse. There’s nothing in North Van. Absolutely nothing.
Well, working outside of a strip bar is a good thing, but not when the place of work looks like a crack house.
I like how Wolf has to yell at the hookers to not get busy on the hood of his bosses car, or on the seat of his motorcycle. THAT is a classy area of town!
Hehehe…I keep going back and reading Wolf’s rant above…damn that boy can string together a fine list of words! Makes me giggle…them’s good times!
Isn’t the Coachhouse in N.Van? Or do I remember something about closing that place down.
How many pennies would it take to fill a standard fuel tankah? You know, as a decoy in the wasteland. And would the rig I sawr two days ago be then big enough to haul it?
YOUR brain is a turnip.
Yeah the coach house shut down a while ago *sniff*.. that slanty wars was a thing to behold.. the skates on the feet were classic..
