I got this on an email and just had to share. Snopes doen't know if it real or not. But I can just imagine this actaully happening. I used to work part time selling auto parts for Advance. I remember someone actually driving a car to the store cause they could not get the rotor off the spindle after they removed the cotter pin and nut. They also did not put it back on to drive to the store, just the lugs, all 3 of them (yes it should have had 5).

So I can truly imagine this as true.

 

Real or not it was a very amusing story.

 

Good read. I have 22 2 dollar bills I guess I could spare one or two.

 

Ha ha this is the best story ever!

However not all “youngsters’ are this uneducated. I am in my 20’s and I collect them. I did try to use those with the rare red inc in them and they refused to take them! This was years ago so I don't recall at what place this was

 

I don't think anyone is dumb enough to not believe in two dollar bills unless you're like three years old. None the less two people. Hell there is even the old expression queer as a two dollar bill. I don't buy the story one bit. Most of my friends are still in there 20s and early 30s and I have yet to come across a person who has never seen or heard of a two dollar bill. The story is kind of insulting in a way. You probably don't want me posting stories about all the stuff old people don't know about or have never seen.

 

You should get out more often.

 

Alright you got me. I can be amazed by people’s stupidity some times. Even if there is some validity to the story I'm sure it’s not true. Maybe I can see maybe handing a dumb stoner 15 year old behind the counter a $2 bill and having them not know what it is but I doubt it would escalate to the point of security getting involved and that the management not knowing what it is or any of the other employees for that matter. If I remember correctly they taught us about $2 bills in like first or second grade.

 

I remember back about 15-17 years ago. I bought a new vehicles and we named it the "ANTEATR" Caused it looks like an Aardvark to us. Had personal tags an all. We were at the commisary on base in Montana (was stationed there). At commisaries they use baggers to bag your groceries and take them to your car. The bagger we had was a teenager, I would say 15-16. He saw the tag and asked what it meant. We told him it said Anteater cause it reminded us of an Aardvark.

He asked us what an Aardvark was.

Remember, he is now voting.

Never underestimate the power of stupidity, you don't want them to overtake you.

 

lol

 

Ok here what happened yesterday at school.

I go to pay the lady for my $6.99 meal. I go to pay with a 5 & 2 dollar bill. She then looks at me and tells me to hold on. I then see her and a manager come over to me and tell me to step out of line. They then ask me where I got the two dollar bill, and why am I paying with a counterfeit 2 dollar bill. I start laughing, and they tthreatento call ssecurity I tell them to go right ahead. The ssecurityguard comes over and looks at the 2 dollar bill, and asks what is this. I said, "its a two dollar bill. Then laugh again." He then calls the police. He asks me to please come with him, and I tell him no I didn't do anything wrong. Within a minute or two one of Cleveland's finest comes over and looks at the 2$ bill, and asks what the problem is. I say there is no problem, and the others reply he is paying with a counterfeit 2 dollar bill. He says it looks fine to me. They respond in there is no suck thing as a 2 dollar bill. He laughs, pats me on the back, hands me back my 2 dollar bill, and walks away.


So I go once again to pay with my 2$ bill, and they refuse to take it. I laugh more and say if you will not take my moneyI'lll leave with my food. They, the two lunch rooms people, and the security guard say if you do not come back and pay for this I will be forced to call the police again. So I go back and get my 2$ bill, and pay with two ones. I laughed out loud most of the day, just thinking out the situation.


Just thought you guys might find it funny.
