Being really into any particular sort of booze- craft beer, wine, scotch, all lame.

I'll give wine a pass just because it doesn't belong to the sort of basic bro who makes me want to shave my beard.

It's weird because the allure of gambling must surely be the possibility of winning big (unless people actually gamble because they subconsciously want to lose, which seems a bit suspect to me), but if you look around at the other people in a casino, no one is rich.

The casino industry has done a good job marketing itself as this slick James Bond kind of place whereas the reality, the red brick behind the neon, is really intensely sad.

If gambling is your hobby, it's like your hobby is losing money, which seems deeply pathetic, almost pathologic.

It's this. Thousands of hours trying to be the absolute best at something so stupid. Conquistadors of the completely pointless. Fitzcarraldo syndrome.

Yeah but what isn't pointless?
