When someone asks you, a penny for your thoughts, and you put your two cents in, what happens to the other penny?

When someone asks you, a penny for your thoughts, and you put your two cents in, what happens to the other penny?

George Carlin was a legendary comedian known for his sharp wit and insightful observations about the world around him. One of his most famous routines was about the phrase "a penny for your thoughts." In this routine, Carlin humorously pondered what happens to the other penny when someone asks for your thoughts and you put in your two cents.

Carlin's comedic genius shone through as he delved into the absurdity of the expression. He questioned the value of thoughts and whether they were worth only a penny. He also joked about the idea of someone asking for your thoughts and then only giving you a penny in return, as if your thoughts were not worth much.
