Today, I needed to pay off a $35 parking ticket. To try and get some sort of revenge, I went to the bank and got 3,500 pennies, dumped them into a bucket, and refused to pay with anything besides the pennies. They called the police. I was arrested and cited $147. FML

What on earth for? What did they cite you with? There's no violation of any law civil or criminal there...

A bucket full of pennies is a perfectly legitimate way to pay. They are legal tender. An idiotic way to pay would be like with sticks of gum.

Why couldn't you just pay the damn 35 bucks? Instead of paying in pennies you could've went to a coin star and bam! No trouble -_-

You should've paid in nickles. Then they wouldn't have arrested you.

The only person you'd be screwing over by paying in pennies is the cashier, who had nothing to do with your parking ticket. Stupid.

Who's the dumb ass that didn't park right in the first place?

In the United States there isn't a limit to the number of pennies you can pay with. In fact, I think that it is a legal requirement that places accept money (even though some places try not to). Other countries like Canada have a limit of 25 cents or something.
