We need to bring back the coin sacks. I've always wanted to drop a sack of random coins on the counter and say, "This ought to cover it."

I was always partial to those belt-worn change dispensers.
lol, who used those? think it was carneys and arcade people.
change dispensers.
Mostly hookers. But then it caught on with ice cream truck drivers and souvenir salespeople.
collected in the detachable ashtray in the dash. raid when broke. take whole thing in the gas station
everything about this post is wrong and no I will not explain.
What do you mean normal people? Everyone does the stacking thing… don’t they?
I once knew a guy who didn't put his coins in order. You know the trivia that average person swallows 8 spiders per year? It was this guy. He would sit at home and eat spiders all the time. Just spoonful after spoonful of spiders for every meal. 60 billion spiders each year. That's were this statistics comes from. No idea if the coin thing was related. Completely normal guy otherwise.
It's these nuggets of absurdism that get me through the week. Thank you

90% of ADHD and similar memes are just describing human condition.
Autism is when you [common behavior]
No way, I do [common behavior] all the time.

Yes, and it’s objectively better.
This is why I hate coins. Good luck keeping them neatly sorted in your wallet.
Notes only gang~~~ (sorry coin collectors)
Just gonna take a moment to hate on UK bank notes being different sizes in both dimensions, though. Wtf is that?

For the love of god please do not diagnose yourself as being "neurospicy" based solely on if you like stacking coins by size 😭🙏
I want to add, don't diagnose yourself, period. Especially from crap you see on the internet. If you suspect something, see an actual doctor. Someones diagnosis/life is not a "fun costume" for you to just wear because you saw a meme or want to be quirky.

Hell yeah, I'm on the side of the normal people for once.
Stacking your coins like that (and holding them in order in your pocket/hand) would warm the coins up because you touched them, and there's nothing worse than warm coins.
I have always hated warm coins, but I didn't realize it until now. Your comment gave me a plain toast-flavored eureka moment; thank you.
Now imagine accepting warm Moist coins that some nasty child dug out of his sock to buy Pokemon cards from you.
You're with the normies in spirit, at least
I'm sick of the word "spicy" referring to anything but food.
That’s a spicy opinion right there.
That’s because you’re chopped. Stop uncmaxxing
In this age of rapid slang development, corruption, and disposal, I do not envy future historians

So... I might be neurospicy or retarded or both or either... but IMHO it's perfectly rational to sort. It means you get access to the sum or individual pieces way WAY faster than otherwise. What's arguably less rational though is if you can't help yourself, even in a life or death situation, and have to sort coins instead of doing CPR. Then it's not normal.
Coins? Ewwwww
i love coins, and nobody will take my right away to pay a whole week of grocery shopping with coins i count slowly while every one waits behind me in line.
There's a manhole near me that periodically gets used, and the cover is always put back in a different wrong orientation. I'm sure they don't to bug people.

Coins #2 and 3 are too large and need to be moved farther down and now I can't unsee that.
But you know what's WORSE?
Mismatched book spines.
