I clench my fists and yell "anime" towards an uncaring, absent God, and swear solemnly to press my thumbs into Chocolate America's eyeballs until he is blinded, to directly emasculate sporting figures, to beat the shit out of tumblr users with baseball bats, and to quietly appreciate what Waylon Smithers being gay means to me.
How did I go my entire life without knowing that these things exist

That's actually an excellent question. I'm guessing you've never worked in retail or the service industry?
I've just never seen a $50 until today. It's mind-boggling.
I don't even live in the US and I've seen the thing live.
Same.
I don't think I've ever seen a US $50. I've seen plenty of Canadian $50s, though, and I don't think they're much more frequent.
They're less convenient than a few twenties since people always check them for forgeries.
Canada just got a really weird new $50 to make forgery harder.
Man I swear it's like some law of cash registers, half the time when you get a new drawer with only $20 in change, somebody will come along and use a $50 or $100 for an order that costs less than $5.
We can't help it, Alk.
Sometimes we really need the change.
Then you should have asked the bank to cash your check out in smaller bills!
I saw a $2 bill in the fourth grade. How many of you guys have seen one?
I keep three in my wallet.
I think I have one or two, but I don't know where they are.

I've seen literally dozens of $2 bills. But only one $50
I recall my dad attempting to pay for a $2 parking token with a $2 bill once. For some reason the machine wouldn't accept it.
The weird thing? The same machine dispensed Susan B. Anthony coins as change when you paid with a $5 bill. Why would you design a machine with those in mind but not $2 bills?
EDIT: Also I think part of the reason $50 aren't seen more commonly is that ATMs tend to dispense money in multiples of $20.
Because easier to store $1 coins than $1 bills?
...wait...
