How many of you have played in casinos...I hope there are enough people here over 21...? I just came back from my first time at one, and that was perhaps the WORST place I've ever been. Not because it was dirty and such, but I have never seen a place where people could be suckered in so badly. How the **** does anyone delude themselves enough to waste hundreds and thousands of dollars on those ******** slot machines. I saw this so many times there and it was painful to watch.
...alright, maybe it was a BIT fun in a sadistic, evil sort of way.
Have YOU ever won anything there? I wasted $60 there. My last games was when I said to myself that I swore, if I got at least some of my money back, I would NEVER ever go back there again. And voila - I won $40. I did break my promise when I found a 1 cent slot machine that had enough credit for one last game, but I didn't win there. I feel more awful for breaking my promise to myself than losing that money. But the temptation to play again was so great...my God, it's even worst than trying to hold off to NOT masturbating for a whole week! **** that ****...
If you guys ever go to a casino, please listen to my advice - GO THERE AND PLAY. This might sound counter-productive, but I'm serious, go there and play, BUT bring ONLY a set amount of cash that you're just as willing to throw away and give to a hobo. Don't bring any ATM or credit cards. In fact, just bring cash and don't bring your wallet. Then play. And watch all that money burn away. Then look around you and see that there are other people who are so sucked into it(especially the old folks, you'll notice a lot of them...sad to think how many of them are burning away a lifetimes worth of savings), wasting hundreds and even thousands of dollars on one stupid slot machine. Then NEVER ever set foot in a casino again because that's how evil those places are.
...and I know this isn't really supposed to go on this section, but on a Fallout-related note, next time I replay my game, I am going to burn New Reno and every single gambling den in the game to the ground. No mercy. I should get a huge positive karma boost for that. 8)
