Fun fact, the penny is the only coin with the president looking to the right. Although given what happened to Lincoln I don't blame him for keeping an eye out behind himself.
Having spent most of my life as a cashier in one form or another I'm not going to feel bad about these things disappearing, I fucking hate pennies. 🤣
The funeral is adorable though, and I'll take this over the usual BS that comes out of washington any day of the week.
Another Fun fact, the penny was the only us coinage to currently cost more than its value to produce at nearly 4 cents for a measly 1 cent coin. In 2024 the US mint produced around 3 billion pennies so its removal saves a sizable chunk of taxpayer dollars.
I also agree with its cancellation and switching to a 5 cent increment rounding system. Quite possibly the only good thing to come out of the current administration...
My first thought was 50-50 ironic comedy stunt or weird political thing from people who think the government is stealing their money by rounding everything to the nearest nickel, but it's hosted by Mary Todd Lincoln so must be the real deal.
We really need to see more stuff like this. Whoever came up with this at Ramp really deserves a raise. I'd like to see more sponsored stuff like this rather than stuff that are just fake and harmful to the people
They already announced they are still minting Pennie’s next year. “Not ment for circulation” but I guarantee they continue to print them for yearly sets
"Why is it taking so long?" I keep asking myself. Because he has great health care that's why. He believes in health care for himself, screw everyone else.
C'mon, his womanly hips and ass are twice as big as Michelle's, of course they were too tight. He really has a womanly shape, I'm sure he's a B cup at least too.
There used to be a DC villain that was penny themed and he would do elaborate things like this and then pop out of the coffin and throw a handful of pennies at Batman. Really obscure, but I like obscure comic stuff, like how they had a vampire with aids who went around biting black and gay people because he was created in a lab by white supremacist supervillain.
A 'penny' is a British coin. The American coin is a ONE CENT piece. Dismissing this coin was inevitable. It was costing more than one cent to mint a one cent piece. Same like when they stopped making our beautiful silver coins as of 1965.
Guy on the front row left looking disappointedly at the inauthentic costume of the man to his left. Come on, the four-in-hand necktie was invented at least 5 years after Lincoln died. also, the egregious lack of a waistcoat and the modern lounge suit jacket he is wearing with a plastic thanksgiving pilgrim hat. Why couldn't that guy have been in the back row???
The gentlemen on the front left is HonestBabeLincoln on TikTok. I’m not even shocked that he went to this, but very amused, as he traveled from afar for this event it seems.
The end of an era. Goodbye, Penny. You were borderline worthless. Put i enjoyed picking you up on the floor and using you to pay exact change. Rest in peace.
Im kind of worried for non profits and charities since they rely on the penny for funding. Its the loose change that people put into charity boxes, because nobody cares about the penny.
A funeral cause they ended the Penny? Dudes on the $5 bill that’s 500 times more valuable than the penny. These people need to grow up. The penny is useless and buys nothing unless you carry multiple pounds of them at the same time.

What a weird but interesting fact never knew this thank you
Apparently they changes quarters a few years ago and I didn't notice, I'm miffed now. XD
They just recently changed the direction of the head in the quarter so this is not entirely true
Fuck they ruined the joke.

Something up with your math since Pennies didn’t cost 3-4 bucks a piece to make. Missing a zero or two on the Pennies? Or maybe add one to the cost?
Well doing math when you're tired is...problematic. lol
Real; there is a reason I didn’t correct you with a accurate value and it’s because I didn’t feel like finding it either
It costs 13.78¢ to make a nickel.
The Jefferson nickel costs .13 to make.
Just sayin....
DC is not a serious place AT ALL lmao
At least this isn’t devastating lmao, please all keep it like this
I didnt say it in a bad way whatsoever haha this is very creative and funny at the same time we need to see more stuff like this
I remember this episode melting my brain when it came out

They already announced they are still minting Pennie’s next year. “Not ment for circulation” but I guarantee they continue to print them for yearly sets
You know it's just a matter of weeks before it's renamed the Donald J. Trump Lincoln Memorial.
I'm just waiting patiently for the Donald J. Trump Memorial Grave and Latrine.
"Why is it taking so long?" I keep asking myself. Because he has great health care that's why. He believes in health care for himself, screw everyone else.
He’s going to call it The Donald Trump Has A Huge Massive Beautiful Girthy Cock Memorial.
Could you imagine if President O'Bama had talked about his wife's panties like Trump did in his speech last night? Unfuckingbelievable.
Trump talked about Michelle Obama's panties? What did he say? Are they too tight on him?
Damn near made bourbon come out nose. It’s come out of every other hole but this one. Bet it would hurt.
I am cackling so hard my cat is looking at me funny

Blob is not a shape. Women can be shapely. He's just .... blooby.
what are you referring to?

My gutter mind went there too! She's getting her Slavic musk out before he can't enjoy it.
Shouldn't he save that for the Washington memorial?
I'm assuming you didn't see this that was done yesterday. I guess step 1 is to add his name, step 2 is to remove the previous name.

I did see it, hence my comment (sorry if I am misunderstanding yours)
I saw his name on the Kennedy center today and it made me want to barf.
I did a report in high school on Kennedy and PT109. Trump doesn't deserve to lick JFK's shoes.
They will have to put gutters in to handle the sheer volume of piss
As someone who hates him, I support this idea. Stick his name on this, the Washington Memorial, Arlington, etc.
Then no one can argue the Kennedy Center was an isolated incident that should be ignored.
The only good thing I can say about having his name on anything really, is tearing it down will feel great.

What's so scary is that's something my dad said completely unprompted today.
I jumped in here to say the same.
I wonder if in the future we’ll go and erase his name from everything he’s putting it on
Yes we will. Most of us are sick of this guy. Even his supporters know he's an asshole they just like that he's doing what they want done.
Beat me to it
I was coming here to post the same comment lol
Àbd it gets painted gold
trumps manhood is replicated via the trump and Washington memorial NOT
Is it just me or did the coffin dance meme come to mind?
That's literally what I thought when I saw them with the casket. Maybe we're just boomers :(
My first thought was the Electric Six video for "Gay Bar".
I was here!!!! Such a fun experience
Same! I was with a coworker. I'd love to see more stuff like this around dc

The Penny Plunderer.
The giant coin in the Batcave originally belonged to him, but has since been retconned to belonging to Two-Face
Our country is a gta lobby and I love it
Perfect way to describe it
What am I supposed to put into a penny pressing machine now?
Makes cents to me
Only 1 of them can be the real one. The others are imposters.
No more pennies for our thoughts unfortunately
Shouldn’t the casket be a lot smaller?
The Lincoln on the right hangs his head in shame while the left one looks at him in disgust for not wearing a bow tie
A 'penny' is a British coin. The American coin is a ONE CENT piece. Dismissing this coin was inevitable. It was costing more than one cent to mint a one cent piece. Same like when they stopped making our beautiful silver coins as of 1965.
I’d rather mourn the death of democracy and the rule of law
1 penny used to cost 4 cents to produce so financially it never made sense for it to be minted
Isn't it the same with nickel as well? I think it's just a matter of time until nickel faces the same fate as the penny
Took me a second to get the caption, RIP penny
The party of Lincoln killed by Trump
If the dancing pallbearers meme was in the Victorian era
What does the casket signify?
Come on dudes a pallbearer and has his HAND IN HIS POCKET!!! OMG!!
Are they from that big club of Lincoln impersonators?

I picked up a penny in the street today😁

Thank these young men for taking time away from ice protesting to attention seek this way!
Cool 😎
Should be a copper coffin.
You mean the “Trump-Lincoln” memorial.
The end of an era. Goodbye, Penny. You were borderline worthless. Put i enjoyed picking you up on the floor and using you to pay exact change. Rest in peace.
*The Trump and Lincoln Memorial
TIL
Lincoln wore transitions glasses
Don’t you mean the Trump-Lincoln Memorial? That’s what we’re doing with presidential monuments now, isn’t it?
… I think you meant to say the Trump/ Lincoln Memorial.
I love the one guy who has the real beard looking all smug at the others.
If aliens do exist, shit like this is why they’ll never visit us.
I saw it on fox news
I was here from start to finish a very funny event
People are getting weirder somehow
John Wilkes Booth is going to have to upgrade from a Deringer to a six-shooter
Ppl in DC r so bored
That's what I said lol
This seems like an incredible waste of time and money, much like the penny became.
This, all politics aside, the penny actually cost more to make than its worth and should have got rid of long ago.
[deleted]
I've got something to put in you.
Why are they disposing of their collective earnings for the day?
About as stupid as Groundhog Day.
I'm not a single apology
I think they are burying democracy

Now they’ll be getting nickels instead so win!
