Yes, I suppose no self-respecting T-Rex would be caught dead in an F-22.
Hey, it’s all good.
Nevada. We’re known for several things, but here are the top three: Legalized gambling, legalized prostitution, and legal access to liquor 24 hours a day, 7 days a week…for free in some places.
What’s on our quarter?
A fucking “wild horse”. I put “wild horse” in quotation marks because by definition, these horses are not wild but feral, and I dislike anything commemorating something that’s, to most of the people of Nevada, a nuisance. They keep running into roads and getting hit, or running into roads and getting avoided and causing accidents between cars.
These were the proposed designs. The state actually passed a resolution saying that there would be nothing about gambling or prostitution in the quarter design. WTF? Those are two of the things that define Nevada today. No one gives a shit about our mineral wealth or our ranching history or our fucking horses. Does anyone come to Las Vegas to catch a wild horse or learn about the Comstock Lode? No. They come here to play roulette and possibly make it with a high-end prostitute.
I think it shoulda been one singular card. Anyone, although I personally would root for the ace of spades.

I think we got one of the cooler ones.
That Nevada one with the miner reminds me of American Gothic for some reason. Which could have been on Iowa’s coin, but they went with a lesser-known Grant Wood painting instead.
Thanks for the Calvin & Hobbes flashback. Best laugh I’ve had today.
Not to mention some anatomically unlikely horses. Who drew those, Napoleon Dynamite? The horse in back has exactly no legs supporting him, and a broken ankle, it appears. And is the middle one swimming? 
They should have made it look like a poker chip.
Err… at the Mustang Ranch? 
Like most people in my state, I was disappointed by the design chosen for Idaho. I would have rather seen the design in the middle on the bottom become our state’s quarter. The one on the right is okay, too. Oh well, at least they didn’t go with the obvious and put a potato on the quarter.
I still think Washington State should have used a profile of their state’s namesake.
Well, considering it’s now called something like “The World Famous Brothel” and it’s owned by someone else…
Then again, we coulda just had a leg in a garter to commemorate our illustrious career of ho’s.

Or a very badly eroded buttplug.
Just saying.
You sure did!
If they’d gone with the mushroom cloud, they should have used the motto: e pluribus uranium
