Challenge to the artsy types!!!

[lordshipmayhem]

For those of you from out-of-town and/or with no recent experience of Toronto's transit system, the TTC are in the process of replacing the old aluminum token, about the size of a dime, with a similarly-sized but harder-to-counterfeit two-metal coin. Think of a dime-sized Twonie, only with the metals reversed.

Their ads (from which arises the subject of this post) ask rhetorically, "What can you do with the old tokens?" Their suggestions are, no pun intended, quite pedestrian:

1) You can... USE THEM UP!!
2) You can... TRADE THEM IN FOR NEW TOKENS!!

That is far, FAAAAAR too boring and uninspired for my taste. And many of my LJ friends are possessed by an artistic bent. So my challenge to you, if that describes you, come up with yet another, far more IMAGINATIVE suggestion as to what the luckless individual possessed of an assload of old aluminum tokens can do (aside from redeeming them for a $2.75 ride). You choose how many you're going to use, as to the TTC it's going to be all surplus anyway.


Enjoy!!

You could make scale-mail armour out of them!

And I now have a vision of a TTC ticket taker's uniform made out of scale mail. Works!! ^_^

I could make a bellydance bra decorated in tokens...although I'd rather use the new ones, they're prettier.

True, they would be. Interesting.
