This morning I stopped by my neighborhood do-it-yourself coin-op car wash, a handful of quarters in tow. When I got to the car wash, there was a new sign.

I thought, "Wow, how convenient! Do they still make dollar coins?" Turns out they do, and a nearby machine was happy to take my last twenty in exchange for several pounds of coins. The leftover coins have since been weighing down my pockets, and I'm beginning to wish I'd worn a belt today.

I understand that they're trying to push a new standard, but why do they have to tell me it's for my convenience? It's that "Enjoy Sprite" thing all over again.
