[Evanblive91]

[Evanblive91]

[youvbeenmindfucked]

im getting my car towed so i can troll and do this

[MrJacobHarrelson]

I swear to you I will never pay a towing company any other way now. You guys are brilliant and I'm glad that someone else hates tow companies as much as I do.

[MajorPwnage96]

Haha this inspires me even more! I am gonna make a video of me giving various retailers pennies for items, and this makes me want to even more!

[onthetoasty]

your tax pennies at work, ladies and gentlemen.

[ToxicTyrant100]

Wow bro you're fucking awesome!

And you turned into an FSU meme! :D

[letitoutliveitup]

these guys charged me 103 dollars for towing me from wescott. finally someone got them. thankyou!!! i love fsu

[ilw07]

y'all are my heroes. thank you!

[neonmarkers000]

those are my brothers friends :)

[daniellundqvist84]

"What if you emergency"... Why the fuck did he call 911? Isn't there like a "non-emergency" number you can use for these matters?

[daniellundqvist84]

@daniellundqvist84 woops, supposed to say "what is you..."

[erol56]

@daniellundqvist84 By refusing his money they were stealing his car, which is a crime.

[daniellundqvist84]

@erol56 Yes, I'm aware of that. I say the video too thank you.. But as i said, it was not an emergency..

[Mugrs]

Easy solution: accept it and take your sweet time counting it.

[cmocarp]

I actually started to feel bad for the girl working the counter. I am sure she deals with a lot of pissed customers on a daily basis and she handled this relatively well. The guy is kind of an asshole, he's the one who parked illegally...

[Runrrrr]

black officer win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[legatic]

@Jwkartz2 that would be the case if he was walking into a store and trying to buy something, but they've already got his car. His car is his property. They claim he owes them a debt, it isn't for a "service" (they've already provided the "service" of towing his car). Legal tender must be accepted for all DEBTS, public or private.

[GogetaEX]

@Jwkartz2 Yes, but in this case they have his car. It's not like he is buying something from a store.

[TheZombieWall]

@Jwkartz2 Not when they have possession of your property.

[schmutzlord]

This was a tale of victory. Well played.

[megamigit23]

[BIackfoot6]

that was awesome. what a little cunt. fuck towing companies

[ColeMON420]

Just got towed from this place for the second time this year. Fuck tallahassee parking!

[LeviathAileron]

A penny saved is a penny earned.

Convert entire bank account into pennies.

Start saving your money by not buying anything.

Earn a penny for each penny saved this way.

Infinite Money!

[megamigit23]

@whoremonky15 too l8 that where you got ur ugly from

[altim4t3]

@megamigit23 I'm guessing you got your stupid from your parents?

[megamigit23]

@altim4t3 i'm stupid but not as much your family and your gay self

[altim4t3]

@megamigit23 What makes you think i'm stupid and 'gay'? Gay means happy, so you're an idiot for using it as an insult. If you wanted to insult someone you'd call them a homosexual rather than 'gay'.

[megamigit23]

@altim4t3 it just makes you that much more stupid for not knowing what gay is. but fine if you perfer homosexual,then your a homosexual dumbass

[altim4t3]

@megamigit23 I'm stupid for knowing more than you? Where's the logic behind that? Einstein and Stephen Hawkings are the biggest idiots in the world, right? According to your logic it is. Please, just shutup and stop embarrassing yourself.

[megamigit23]

@altim4t3 einstein and stephen hawkings were the smartest men ever. unlike you, we were all straight.ya douche.

[altim4t3]

@megamigit23 You WERE straight? So you're a homo, now? I can believe that.

[megamigit23]

@altim4t3 whatever ,i'd rather be homo than gay like you

[altim4t3]

@megamigit23 So, what you're saying is that you'd rather like dudes than be happy? You have no idea what i've been saying, have you? Your puny 10 year old mind can't comprehend these 'big' words? Lemme put it this way; homo = liking dudes, gay = happy.

[megamigit23]

@altim4t3 fi1st of all I'M 13! 2nd i'm straight. 3rd homosexual means you like both men and women. 4th gay can mean happy but not with a gayfer like you. 5th your a very annoying person!

[altim4t3]

@megamigit23 ok, 1; WOAH, BIG MAN, 2; from what i've seen in the before comments i have my doubts, 3; that's biseuxual, not homosexual. Homosexual is liking the same as your gender, 4; Gay is a word (a noun or an adjective) that primarily refers to a homosexual person. The term was originally used to refer to feelings of being "carefree", "happy", or "bright and showy". 5; i couldn't care less about what you think.

[altim4t3]

@megamigit23 Btw, what's a gayfer? Is it an insult? Is it an compliment? Did you just make it up cuz it's the best you can do?

[megamigit23]

@whoremonky15 who ur ugly mom ur fat dad

[megamigit23]

@whoremonky15 shut up ya gayfer! i'm straight unlike you!

[350cutlassrocket]

Wow, this is great. We had to make a law here because tow truck drivers are insane

[Cameroner1]

And I want the containers back.

[vide0gameCaster]

She need to read the constitution.

[musicismylife8787]

Love those cops !!

[laetrille]

the last thing you want is a stupid cop

[megamigit23]

when i first saw this i thought it said 88,000 penises

[Rolfmeister]

Am i the only one that looked at the title and thought 8,800 penISes?

[ICECOLDCHROME]

a little over 8800 likes... :)

[VeeYehLa]

8800th like!



[Gglegeek00]

@Jonting91 If I wasn't on my mobile, I would fucking thumb up that comment dude.

[90srap4eva]

i want to go to that same placeand pay in pennies

[buddytazzer]

8 more likes and you will have 8800 Likes! xD

[OKredneck]

nowhere on coins does it say "legal tender". It is only stated on dollar notes, which have to be accepted. Coins do not. If you tried to pay me like that, i would make you count and roll them first.

[TheTruthHurtsYup]

@OKredneck United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes and dues. Foreign gold or silver coins are not legal tender for debts.

—31 U.S.C. § 5103

[OKredneck]

@TheTruthHurtsYup

This statute means that all United States money as identified above are a valid and legal offer of payment for debts when tendered to a creditor. There is, however, no Federal statute mandating that a private business, a person or an organization must accept currency or coins as for payment for goods and/or services.

[OKredneck]

@OKredneck Private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether or not to accept cash unless there is a State law which says otherwise. For example, a bus line may prohibit payment of fares in pennies or dollar bills. In addition, movie theaters, convenience stores and gas stations may refuse to accept large denomination currency (usually notes above $20) as a matter of policy.

[OKredneck]

@OKredneck

So, in other words, this company was well within their rights to refuse to accept payment in pennies, nickles, dollar bills, etc. Just because the cop didn't take the time to research the law in it's entirety, and just took your word for it, which was only part of the act. 31 U.S.C. § 5103, which you quoted, is only part of the act.

[TheTruthHurtsYup]

@OKredneck A towtruck company holding someones personal property is a payment of debt, they are a creditor, not a private company simply asking for payment of goods or services.

[bigmikey753]

The 508 people who dislike this vid where paid in 8,800 pennies

[daroflcopterful]

hahahaha dude you guys are such douche bags haha thumb up

[batmanownsyourass]

Must have been a slow day.

[coloccini95]

lol this ones rolled

[ThinkTwice3]

Did anyone else hear "911, what's your emergency?" when he calls the police?

[Maxellz]

Total weight - the weight of the packages = the weight of all the pennies.

weight of all the pennies / the weight of the pennies for 1 dollar = The amount of money he's paying.

Why is that so hard? Oooh she doesn't have a scale ofcourse..

[TheRepublicOfUngeria]

This was epic, yet a perfect reason why pennies should be abolished. When we stopped minting the half cent piece it was worth more than a dime is today, so fuck the nickel too!

[batmanownsyourass]

@TheRepublicOfUngeria So how will you get change?

[TheRepublicOfUngeria]

@batmanownsyourass You round all prices to the nearest ten cents

[batmanownsyourass]

@TheRepublicOfUngeria Because that couldn't mean that you lose several dollars.

[rhcp257]

three cops??

[PandorasBoxFilm]

lol

[lcht2]

genius

[paulderev]

What an asshole.

[PillowMcCloud]

@paulderev well you see i can do that shit as long as it is pure legal tender and they impound your car

[DubsBrown]

Nice how it takes 3+ cops to decide if pennies are currency.

[ThePhatIndian]

@DubsBrown That's a good thing. They're having a dialogue about the law instead of a singular cop deciding by his lonesome what is and isn't the law.

I'd much rather have cops that are confused about a certain statute and willing to learn about it (like these officers) than one who doesn't give a shit and thinks his opinion is the law.

[RobinPharmacy]

what, couldn't find any doll hairs?

[SuperSaiyanWii]

Stop saying they don't have to take it, because the are legally obligated to. If you receive a "service" and have to pay after the "service" has been received, they are legally obligated to take any form of payment you give them (as long as it's in the form of USD).

Example:

I go to a restaurant and order my dinner. I receive the check after I have finished the dinner and pay in pennies. They HAVE to take it because that is the method of payment I have chosen for a good I've already consumed.

[danglayyyyyy]

amazing how many cops show up....

[sethblatt]

the stupid things we argue about

[jonting91]

park illegally like douchebag, get fined

pay the fine with pennies, in keeping with his douchebag behaviour

mmm kids sure are "cool"

[killa1585]

Car*

[killa1585]

Morrons ! If i was her id count super slow and made them wait hours or fukin days to get their car back! And add a fine for every day I kept the day over night !  I'd never stop counting !

[sskipe109]

"Pure legal tender!"

[jander8786]

look on snopes

[jander8786]

the legally dont have to take it!

[MichaelBMoyer]

Big Bad Wolves

[KaiItza]

LOL 3 cops to tell 1 woman she needs to count them

[IrishGamer360]

Stay classy.

[justinlegend8800]

Dick move or not, I am behind you 100%. Most towing companies are a bunch of scum bags. This will show them not to tow a car over a ridiculous violation. Also the cops handled this situation very well.

If people don't like pennies, get rid of the completely.

[Jamiesfunkstew]

This would have been a lot more enjoyable if the giddy little school boy smugness was toned down a few notches. Fine line here between sticking it to the man and bros being giggly douchebags.

[doconnor13]

these guys suck.

[campeterz]

"GREAT SUCCESS!"

[ilovejoshg09]

too funny .. tax dollars hard at work!! LOL

[ilovclips]

epic guy is epic!!

[NathanJ0nboy]

you look like the sandman from spiderman 3

[rodertjenkins]

This guy is the trollmaster general.

[reefsurfer226]

3 cop cars for a penny problem. no wonder america is in debt

[SazzyKassi]

look like im sorry its the law but that is so rude and totally avoidable..

[windssoul]

@SazzyKassi You cause someone such a massive inconvenience, don't expect a favorable response.

[SazzyKassi]

@windssoul Thanks for a favorable response:D

[xjtbarnesx]

Shit's retarded.  Who has the time for this?

[MiSenigmatic]

3 officers two cop cars and the lazy bitch wont take the pennies

[xMooNv]

@MiSenigmatic 6:40 Wait for the 3rd cop care to show up lol!

[MiSenigmatic]

@xMooNv

haha

O_O

[tailynne]

[tailynne]

[ExSuperVillain]

The dumb bitch was just too fuckin lazy to count. 

[KWCARVING]

i deffinetly miss read that when my friend sent it too me

[elseby]

8:16 those are some sweet indie filming skills you got there champ.

[punkstilllives27]

"They should pay her in pennies..."

lol

[lily0ness]

Anyone ever tell you you look kinda like Lee Evans?? :P

[TheSweata71]

why were 7 cops needed for this? hahahhaa

[Don612Juan]

If they refuse it he should be getting his car for free.

[2009SC2]

this was awesome fuck people saying this was wrong or stupid

[oscarcool40]

biggest troll in the world and my hero

[heyryanleys]

Is it pure legal tender? Did anyone hear him say if it was pure legal tender? Because I'm not sure if it's pure legal tender. I wonder if it's pure legal tender.

[Pickpocket]

@heyryanleys i dont know if its pure legal tender either

[iValvePlayer]

@heyryanleys It's money, if he was trying to pay with chickens that's a whole different story.

[Zgenator]

I like legal tender girls

[Duckstaped]

the cross under your neck is a bit discouraging, I won't lie

[gwalt999]

"I think she needs to go downtown." Indeed she does

[Killtodiewtf]

Some states dont have to take payment in pennies btw. not quite legal tender

[parkrdev]

sure, he's right, but he's also a douche

[tiolocmcgrock]

@parkrdev No, those fuckers were the douches. This fucking towing shit is ridiculous, they deserve it.

[ml497]

@tiolocmcgrock

Agreed, the girl really can't help the fact that they towed his car and she is taking the full brunt of his revenge. Just because he has the law on his side doesn't mean he's in the right.

[NickSinisko]

@ml497 Yes it does .

[letsfolk]

shitty stain job on the underside of that counter...

[joedaddy888]

skype is autocorrecting the title "8,800 pennies" to 8 (call button for 800-PENNIES)

[sarahemily20]

wow this guy calls 911

[crazydudetz]

Legal tender

[Gills3339]

one hour later? that's it?

[ShaunSick]

Best 10 minutes of my life.

[marcoj25]

how did you get so many pennies?

[vlassakj]

She didn't have to accept it, legal tender means that the Federal Reserve System must honor U.S. currency , not necessarily anyone else.

[richardallenharris]

@vlassakj She did have to. They were withholding his vehicle. If he is trying to pay the "fee" to get his car back then they must accept it. Also, its for debts both public and private... If you are purchasing something from a store and they cannot break a $100 bill and refuse to take it that is a different story because you can purchase your goods elsewhere. Free Enterprise. I bet you got your education from the university of phoenix.

[vlassakj]

@richardallenharris Sigh how lovely , I made an "invalid point" and I got my education from phoenix. Or maybe I'm not a US citizen and saw this guy was a giant ***hole and thought I could make a quick point, in my country even stamps used to be considered 'legal tender' but when you tried to pay with your fines with it you could suck it. I could be wrong and this is youtube, bon't you don't HAVE to be an ass.

[warftl]

@vlassakj I'm pretty sure you're right about people being allowed to refuse legal tender, EXCEPT in the case of preexisting debt. Because he already owed them the money, they had to accept the pennies. If he tried to buy something in a store for $80 in pennies, then they could refuse, because they would also be refusing to allow him to be in debt to them in the first place.

[vlassakj]

@warftl Yeah I looked it up you are right.

[klootzakappel]

DUMPERT!!

[ShogaNinja]

paint under your counter. jeez. I hate when people try to cut corners and not paint where they think you will never look. cheap fuckers.

[R013ERT92]

Why send 3 cops cars to this? Dont they have better things to do?

[PlanetaryDonkey]

@R013ERT92 slow day

[TijsBosch]

The woman behind the counter should've just taken the boxes and start counting the pennies real slowly out loud. One by one. "One... Two... Three... Well, i can't give you your car back until i've counted the cash! Four.... Five..." See who laughs last!

[imTYLERiROCK]

why would he walk after going to the pub..... fucking american's

[xXcorpitoXx]

smart to skip the last 4 numbers of his cell phone or he would have been trolled to death

[RussianVitamines]

for ultimate trolling, do one of this... 1.walk in right 30 minutes before lounch break 2.Mix in some other low value coins... 3. ask her for a date at the end... 4. hide a condom into the coins... 5. take back the boxes, or demand to pay for them 5$ each... 6. Spray your T shirt, coins and whole place with "liquid ass"

[ZerOwAffLeS]

awesome ;D fuck the parking services

[Lolaxas]

Yeah right, success at being annoying bastards and getting away with it. Christ... did you seriously not have anything better to do than count pennies and pull off this shit?

[wistals2deniks]

@Lolaxas They probably got it in rolls from the bank and did not have to count.

[Lolaxas]

YOU IDIOT. You decide to pay with pennies to PUNISH the towing company for towing your car (required by law) by making the EMPLOYEE of the towing company COUNT your fucking pennies.

You arrogant ass. You broke the law and then decided it fair to punish an innocent employee of the company by making him count all those pennies.

Don't take your car to the pub, 25 miles away from home, you aren't even supposed to drive it home after having a drink.

What an utter bleeding ignorant ass you are.

[wrnl]

@Lolaxas No, u.

[CillaBlack5]

@Lolaxas Lighten the fuck up, take that dick out of your ass and read the description. Have a good day!

[teamholeshot]

A good day to be a police officer.

[Beggionahorsehoes]

his foult for parking there.. so it´s not revenge hes just being a bitch
