Law Cheetah posted:anything we can do to keep poor/stupid people from effecting the world in a meaningful way This is precisely why I think "gambling is bad" -- I believe the effects of it on society are TREMENDOUSLY meaningful in horrible, horrible ways. I'm not saying we should make it fully illegal and create something similar to the drug war, but it would be nice to expose gambling for what it is. Owning an anime pillow and knowing the hit chart for blackjack should be on the same, shameful level. For christ's sake I still have a shred of dignity to know better than to tell people IRL I post in the Something Awful forums. Gambling should be handled the same way.

The non-bitchmade gambler is destined to live in a trailer drinking liquor out of the bottle and paying for sex. The bitchmade one gets shot in the back of a head by a loanshark.

Richard Sherman lost 80k last week on craps at a Seattle area casino, if only he had seen this thread before making such foolish financial decisions.

I don't have a problem with gambling as much as I have a problem with all the psychological poo poo casinos do to make sure they are maximally draining you of every last loving red cent. Like they purposefully make the casino floor between the lobby and the elevators for the rooms and then they purposefully make it annoying to navigate so you're exposed to as many people gambling as possible.

Keep bein' the modern-day zenith of machismo. Don't forget to have someone bet for you when you remember to pee and always keep in mind that 'cool regular' sitting next to you, engaging in friendly conversation, sees you as an easy shoeshine.

gambling takes too strong a burden on the poor and stupid, the image of the billionaire high roller is perpetuated when they make most money from the average joe. this group of people (along with the addicts) should be protected from themselves. abolish lotteries and raise taxes it kind of surprises me fantasy football and similar games arent considered gambling; "games of skill" lol i like to troll my friend that does make money at poker by insisting it's 100% random, really gets the vein popping out on his forehead
