Shouldn't You Be Smart?
FOUND by Annie Gunn in Austin, Texas
I found this at the coffee shop where I work. I wonder if whoever wrote on this dollar wanted it to be circulated, thus insulting strangers at random; or, was it meant for someone, written on, crumpled, and tossed into the lap of their fellow 7th grader, only to be inserted later into the snack machine?

They're Happy Bunny quotes. ^_^

Could be either; that said, both those phrases are from the Happy Bunny collection. Happy Bunny is a brand of shirts/mugs/hats/mousepads/etc./etc./etc. that features a little smiling rabbit insulting you.

I'm more amused by the fact that "you're" is spelled incorrectly. Especially on the "smart" one. :)

I agree with Amy. It's shocking that teenagers don't know the difference between "your" and "you're".

Maybe they didn't like the dollar bill.

yes, if there was justice, One should be smart and not just gross and ugly. Alas the universe is apathetic.

The top one is a pretty funny insult. I would have liked to get that dollar! I'll bet it was for the general public, b/c you don't give someone money AND insult them. Unless it was a friend who you owed money to.

I think that maybe we should start a wave of writing messages on bills. It would be a very interesting form of communication - to unknown strangers.

Too bad they can't think of their own insults, instead of stealing lines from a rabbit.

Most adults don't know the difference between "your" and "you're" either.

I've been writing little messages, song lyrics, movie quotes, etc... on the backs of dollar bills for a couple of years now. I've been hoping to see one of mine on this website, but alas so far I have not.

I sometimes cross out "In God We Trust" and write in "E Pluribus Unum" instead.

I like that. I think I might start writing little things on my money. Nice things, to get you through your day. :)

One time I got a dollar that said "James Loves You" and it made my day.
I don't even know a James, though.
Since then I've wondered who James is.

Those are quotes from Happy Bunny, who is a character on the Happy Tree Friends. I LOVE Happy Bunny.

My good lord. A couple years back, me and one of my friends were writing on dollar bills. That was one of them.

to Heather in GA,
I know a James, and out of all of my friends, he would be the one to write, "James loves you" on a dollar bill. He is always saying that he started the now perfectly normal goodbye, or "I love you" amongst our group of friends. He usually refers to himself as eskimo, though. But to make your day again, I'm sure if he was face to face with you he would say it again. ;)

Maybe the smart kid who wrote this does know the difference and just left out a few words.

Since your gross and stupid boyfriend dumped you, shouldn't you be smart enough to forget him?

Your ugly but lovable hamster died, and that's sad.

Heather in GA, it's gotta be James Molenda!!

I recently came across a $1 bill that said, "I found this on Christmas Day." I sent it to Found. Maybe they'll scan it and feature it as a Find of the Day someday.
