See a penny, pick it up...
...and all day,
you'll have good luck.
That's what my mum taught me when I was five.
But I've declined to follow this advice when I've seen pennies covered in wee in gents toilets on the basis of public hygiene. And the fact that a penny buys you fuck all.
But I was rather surprised, when this little baby, a pound coin (that's $1.83 US) was ignored by passenger after passenger that exited a rush-hour train yesterday. As a republican (with a small "r") I did quite enjoy watching the queen's face get stamped on, but this is the question:
Am I a pikey for stopping to pick it up?
Or just a loser that looks at his shoes while walking?
(pikey - translated in US could mean tramp, bum, or certainly that hillbilly on The Simpsons with 20 kids).

no, not a pikey. for a start, when was the last time you saw a pikey on a bus?
whilst you are on a bus ending up a quid richer, they are in your back garden nicking your tools from your shed and turning a once beautiful bit of scenery into a fucking shithole!
we ought to be able to have a cull on the dodgy inbred cunts once a year!
p.s cleatus the slackjaw yokel was the name on the tip of your tongue!
Someone I once knew used to say: see a penny, pick it up, any luck, you'll have a fuck. That's a bit rude, though.
working girls cheap round your way eh?
Found money kicks ass! One of my friends was kicking a $100 bill on the sidewalk once. He thought it was an ad printed to look like money. Luckily he finally picked it up and had a greeeat day!
