Some things that are more likely radicalizing the youth:

If I have two copies of a book, then I get to share it with someone.

If I recall a book I have checked out, I will spend the rest of my life avoiding eye contact with the librarians.

It's $12.50 at the University of Illinois Chicago! While charging anything is skeevy, that difference is WILD

Pennies? You're giving her too much credit. Just a bunch of rocks.
