The Weird Al Says Tweet!

I sadly had a hard time with that coin pic, too, until my husband asks, "Is he 55?" I was like, "God, I'm stupid!" I was looking for a joke in that pic and there wasn't one..

I just now got the reference, just before going back to Al's twitter and reading a comment explaining it. They're nickels, so each is worth 5 cents. Two 5s together is 55. Clever.

Oh... I knew neither that these were nickels nor that nickels are 5 cents.

That's what I thought, mellow weasel, which is why I explained it. Seriously, when I first saw that tweet, I was confused by it.

Also, maybe it's not a joke, but I think it's clever, Wizzerkat. Had us stumped, didn't it?

It took me a second to understand that tweet as well. It was indeed a very clever way of thanking everyone for the birthday wishes.

Maybe from now on he'll be asking people to shave his back for two nickels, not just one

I could not figure it out at all until I read this thread lol.

Good thing I brought up the question

I saw a comment that said that it was worth two back shavings! HAHA!
