Penny for your thoughts?

1. Old phrase that means: What are you thinking? Technically it means: I'll give you a penny if you tell me what you are thinking. It's silly to give a penny or receive one for your thoughts so no one ever does. Peter Frampton used it for the title of his guitar instrumental that can be heard on Frampton Comes Alive.

Older term that means extremely strange but is usually heard in reference to a gay person. There never was a three dollar bill...thus the rarity.
