Now, the average penny weighs within the bounds of about 2.5 grams apiece. Yeah, apparently grams don't really weigh as much as they used to, eh?
By the way, just in case you're wondering where I'm getting this, I'm not pulling it out of the sky. I did a google search, and it came up with a variety of results, the most prominent of which is this:
US Coinage
Penny Standard weight 2.5 grams
Nickel Standard weight 5.0 grams
Dime Standard weight 2.268 grams
Quarter Standard weight 5.670 grams
If you really, TRULY want a link to the site, here you go. However, be warned: NSFW.
Trust me, I don't want you getting fired or getting in trouble for looking at that website. Because if you do, you may never come back to my webpage again. And that would be sad.

Okay, back on track. Most of you have probably never SEEN 40 pennies all together in one nice little pile.
Now you have. I could end my post without actually making a point, saying that I taught the majority of the internets something: someone, somewhere, has a collection of MORE THAN four pennies. All in one pile, too.
Or, better yet, divided into four stacks of ten.
So you're probably wondering, "But wait, where is he actually going with all this?"
Simple. 40 pennies, each weighing 2.5 grams apiece, collectively weigh about 100 grams.
Also, take note: even though I don't have enough nickels (crazy, I've got plenty of pennies but not enough silver shinies...), they weigh about as much as two pennies: 5 grams apiece. This means that about 20 nickels weigh 100 grams as well.
Watch now, because I'm about to do something really, really interesting.
100 grams is the weight of a newborn kitten at birth, original site sfw. Now, we all know that adorable, fluffy, awkward as hell kittens are the COOLEST THING TO HAPPEN TO THE WORLD SINCE SLICED BREAD.
So, what all this boils down to is this:
This cute little abomination weighed about as much as a dollar in nickels when it came into the world.Something else interesting, you cry out for? Well, I won't delve too deep into this, buuuut.....
The Motorola RAZR V3 (i.e. my current phone) weighs 99 grams, just one shy of the big 100.
Does this mean that my phone is worth only one dollar? no. The weight of a dollar? well......
Oh, by the way, if we're gonna start down that road, I've just gotta do this.....
WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE:
A newborn kitten, or a Razr V3?
Discuss.
Okay, it's late and I'm tired.

I know right!!! You sound like a complete fucking RETARD FUCK, with a special eds education
I found 3 household items that were exactly 100 grams and recalibrated my scale. The second that I sat the items on there it went straight to 100.00 grams of weight and said pass!! And I also verified this with another scale that was accurately calibrated just before calibrating my other one. So 3 simple items are
1. A box of Olay bar soap ( leave bar of soap in box to ) it weighs 90 grams together.
2. 1 single Large metal Paperclip. It sits right on the box .
3. 2 Metal Staples ( from a regular home/office stapler ) like what sits on your desk in your office the standard ones. I just broke 2 of them off of a chunk I had left over when I was refilling mine. It sits on top of box too. No balancing required, lol. Take box with those 2 items on it and sit it on scale
AND THERE YOU HAVE IT 100 GRAMS EXACTLY!!!!!
Life is a like running a business. And Business is somewhat ugly in most cases. lots of psychological infiltration and manipulation. to swim with the sharks you must learn to be a shark. or be eaten.

Special education drop outs should be locked away and forgotten, or catapulted at a cliff wall to set an example for kitty tossers.
