Apparently I am dumb. And, apparently you all knew that and DIDN’T TELL ME! What the hell is wrong with you people?
At my parents’ house last night my dad nonchalantly asked me how many dollars 7000 pennies equaled. I immediately knew what he was talking about. THIS. When I typed it I thought about it and thought about it and ultimately decided that yes, of course 7000 pennies equals 700 dollars. Duh! If seven hundred equals 7 dollars and seven thousand equals 70, then seven thousand would equal 700. Yes, I do see that I said seven thousand twice. I effed it up, okay? Shuddup.
Now that we all have recognized that I am dumb, what I want to know is this: why didn’t anyone tell me?! Ya big jerks.

Hi! Here… here is a shiny new nickel. Dr. John told me to stop by and give you 5 cents so I can really mess your math up. You’re probably thinking 6995 pennies by now - but then you’d be really, really wrong.

I didn’t even notice! I knew what you meant.
What can I say? Math isn’t my strong suit.
