I was saving up to bribe @shawn for a certain request, but after sending him some of a different cryptocurrency which shall go unnamed, pagination was removed.
@ChadP My, uh, “street corner” connection is on vacation thru this weekend, so I won’t have an answer until Monday or Tuesday. He owes me a favor, so I might be able to get you one for free.
@Barney too late there good judge. I’ve moved on over to Trolls Butte, it’s a bandits paradise over here. All the good town folk have been taken care of and that no good sheriff has been run out of town.
So are most locations out of these now? I hadn’t heard anything about it, but now that I can’t get one… I kinda want one. Worked at a McD’s in high school. Fond memories. Not so much the work, but the after work, and the friends.
@PlacidPenguin If there was a penguin option, then most likely yes. Gotta catch 'em all. Oh wait, that’s something else. I have Webkinz Penguins for sure.
I happened to get two, the first (1968-78) and the last (2008-2018). I may complete the set when I’m able to pick up the other three on ebay for a coupla bucks. There’s 6.2 million of 'em out there, so the price’ll come down pretty soon. If not, oh well.
I got one on a total fluke, I had no idea they were a thing. Then I did the Googler and it all worked out pretty sweet. It’s still hanging out in my center console.
I was working at a local polling place for an election that day and missed out. my hisband tried to get me one early that day but the idiot behind the counter said they weren’t participating but 2 hours later my sister in law got one from the same location.

Big Mac coin ring on Etsy for a surprisingly modest $25. Choice of size. Made from genuine Big Mac coin. Ya gotta really love your burgers to spend $25 on this, but who am I to judge.
I never even knew these were a thing.
Did you just make that up? I have never heard of such a thing either…
@moonhat They were only offered a limited time.
I don’t go to McDonald’s.
How about I give you some Bitcoin instead?
@PlacidPenguin 32nyyh3wYaxNSPTdzi9U7SfviVYeazdp57
@ChadP
Grumbles
Coinbase is making me verify my identity before I can send it.
@PlacidPenguin Can I have some too? I can whisper my bitcoin address thing if so.

@PlacidPenguin did your choice of coin offend him, or was it your aim to run my user experience?
@djslack
If my aim was to ruin YOUR user experience, I wouldn’t have chosen a manner which would involve MY suffering.
Why are you wanting one?
@Barney
A guy’s gotta have a hobby.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@PlacidPenguin What’s yours?
@Barney
THAT is a VERY good question.
@Barney I have a family connection to McDonalds and I love McDonalds Merch. I was traveling last weekend and couldn’t get one.
@ChadP I might be able to get you one. I’ll have to check.

@Barney @ChadP I have a stomach connection to McDonalds and their dipped cones
/giphy dipped cones yum
No and No. I’m not sure where they even advertised the event considering the first place I heard about it was on the meh forums.
@Ignorant
Which came first:
Gluing the coin to the wall, then lifting glass so as to put the sticker there;
or putting the sticker there and then gluing the coin there?
@Ignorant You, ignorant horse thief. You shoulda been locked up for life plus 100 years.
@PlacidPenguin No walls or glass involved. Sticker is on my Silhouette Cameo and I set the coin on top of it.
@Ignorant
Oh. The picture is sideways then.
@Barney too late there good judge. I’ve moved on over to Trolls Butte, it’s a bandits paradise over here. All the good town folk have been taken care of and that no good sheriff has been run out of town.
@PlacidPenguin
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I can never tell, I only use my phone and they always look correct there.
@Ignorant
If I open the image in a new tab, then it’s fine by me.
@Barney @Ignorant Uh…I thought the penalty for horse thievery was a hangin’??? “Lord loves a hangin’, that’s why he gave us necks.” Ren & Stimpy
@tohar1 You’re right. But @Ignorant was such a lovable horse thief, I just couldn’t hang him.

You can’t tell me they already stopped carrying these. I tried a number of times but plans always changed!
eBay:
Big Mac Coin
What in tarnation???!!?
@LemonTheCat
I have a bunch of McDonald’s Teenie Beanie Babies if you can’t get any coins.
@heartny
Any penguins?
@PlacidPenguin If there was a penguin option, then most likely yes. Gotta catch 'em all. Oh wait, that’s something else. I have Webkinz Penguins for sure.

@mrslug The price is pretty set I think. I mean, $12k is stupid. But for the most part, they are a fun stable currency.
I got one on a total fluke, I had no idea they were a thing. Then I did the Googler and it all worked out pretty sweet. It’s still hanging out in my center console.
@fuzzmanmatt All I’m saying is, I’ll take it.
@ChadP @fuzzmanmatt Did you get one?
@ChadP i’ll be stopping at an of the beaten path mcdonald’s on my way to wisconsin tonight. maybe they’ll still have some left.
@carl669 - Good luck - I hit a Mickey D’s the day after the promotion started and all were gone!

I didn’t know anything about this before this thread and don’t particularly like McDonald’s, yet still I find myself wanting one.

@ChadP I have a Big Mac coin if you still want one. If so, I will need an address.
