If a supernatural evergrowing penny were to wear pants would it be like this or like this

Alternative question:

If you have a penny that shrinks in size by half every day, yet kept the same mass the whole while, how long until I should be worried? Quick answers appreciated, my kitchen is starting to warp
Have it fight the ever-expanding penny.

Yo what if Thanos snaps the Penny?
We would have half a coin growing instead or it would disappear as a whole as it wasn't spared?

Could you fuse the shrinking and growing pennies together to cancel both processes out?

What is its mass? I need to know if you want me to calculate its Schwarzschild Radius.

Or just multiply it with double of gravitational constant and divide it with square of light speed.

I mean usually when I snap a penny the FBI comes to get me for destroying government property, and I’m pretty sure Thanos doesn’t wanna go back to prison

By the time he does that, Virginia Beach would be swallowed up by the penny

A penny has Lincoln's face on it, so the answer is to have Proto Man shoot it.

The ideal scenario in dealing with the penny is as follows:
  • People take it seriously Day 1. Everyone knows there's a penny doubling in size that will threaten humanity if left unchecked.
  • The World Powers agree to work together to deal with the threat.
  • Someone's got a rocket capable of launching the penny into space.
    • If no rocket is on hand humanity is pretty much ****ed.
  • Scientists run path calculations for the penny to send it into the Black Hole at the middle of the universe
  • On Day 1 (or 2, maybe 3) the Penny is launched into space and blasted with at least half the nuclear capacity of the entire world.
    • Instead of one large blast, have there be at least three, with some nukes following the penny far into space to keep it going
  • Hopefully the Penny is blasted far enough to the point where humanity remains relatively safe. Ideally it ends up in the Black Hole somehow.
  • If it ends up hitting some debris (which it surely will) hopefully it's not slowed down too much. Maybe turn some nukes into long range remote detonation missiles to keep it going if the penny slows down.
Of course, this is incredibly unlikely and humanity is likely ****ed if the penny can't be broken down. I give Humanity a 3/10 tops.

If the entire Earth took it seriously the second this penny spawned into existence, we might have a chance.

Of course, chances are it'd probably be found by someone who'd be like "oh neat a penny!" and then just keep it, not realizing it's getting bigger until at least day 3.

Alright guys I’m on the other end of the penny black hole.
Turns out you don’t die, you just end up in a coin jar

Even if you don't use Yoshi there are other alternatives...


Or Red Mage Statscowski and using his portable a-hole and b-hole, then having them fall into each other so anything in them are removed from the universe entirely.

Don't question the hole names.

It's 1 AM and I can't sleep, so now we're talking about a demon penny that'll consume the Earth if we don't stop it.

What if everything is else also doubling in size at the same rate and so no one notices?

Okay so consider this
There are two things, each worth one cent (USD)

One of them is quite close to you, and one of them is very far from you.

So the question is, which is the better mode of transportation? The penny near thing or the penny farthing?

Well then that presents a whole new problem of either humanity becoming too large to live on the Earth, or if the Earth is also doubling in size, us getting too close to the Sun.

Don't know about you guys, but this is infinitely better than "who is Brave" and only slightly worse than "who is Jane".

And it's not rule 34 talk, which always a good thing.

No, everyting in the universe is doubling.
The Earth, the Sun, the Galaxies.

Smash speculation? Nah. Let's talk about a penny.

There’s also the problem that humans themselves would just collapse under their own weight after a while.

A valid point.

So, if the penny's anomalous doubling spread to the rest of the Earth, we'd be ****ed for an entirely different reason.

Maximum mass that can be withstood also doubles each time. So everything physical and non/meta also doubles.
