I don’t get it D:
I feel as if I should point out that £2 coins are very bad coins to flip because they’re weighted unequally.

@ JT: The original quote is:
“When faced with two choices, simply toss a coin.
It works not because it settles the question for you, but because, in that brief moment with the coin is in the air, you suddenly know what you are hoping for.”
I don’t know who originally said it.
I don’t know if it’s the original, but there’s a lovely version in verse by the Danish poet Piet Hein:
Whenever you’re called on to make up your mind
and are hampered by not having any,
the best way to solve the decision, you’ll find, is simply by spinning a penny.
No — not so that chance shall decide the affair
while you’re passively standing there moping;
but the moment the penny is up in the air,
you suddenly know what you’re hoping!
(please excuse missing line-break in the first verse; mangled formatting…)
V funny my dear. As always
I was afraid it was going to be a straight quotation, but you come through on this one Luke
Of course, if you actually don’t care, it does settle the question for you. Is British money really two-color? I thought that was just Euros.
The £2 coins are.
