I wouldn't ever even spend 1 cent on a gamble.  It's like getting into your head that you need to have something happen to be happy.  Be happy now, spend money on what matters.  Don't be like my parents and burn money on shit.  I even accept them buying boxes and boxes of cigarettes to die faster but buying a $10 scratch ticket only to win $20 and buy two more makes me sick.  My Dad does the big lotteries too, no he has never won, and yes he has to have spent thousands of dollars on this shit.

As long as all the prizes they give out equal, all together, less than what they rake it, they make a profit. They can put out smaller prizes as incentive for people to buy tickets, who otherwise would say it's not worth it.

[RedKing]

Ah well....a winner is not me. It was fun to think about.

[Knight of Fools]

I see it this way: I have a .0000006% of winning a bunch of money, or a 100% chance of keeping what I already have for other things.

I'm more likely to become a successful business owner and earn that money than I am to win it.

I've finally caught up with Homestuck.

And it's about damn time.

I have an iron index finger on my right hand; archive panic holds no meaning to me.  I have powered through 3 years worth of work in a month, if that.  They* said it couldn't be done.  And I did it.

Hell.

Fucking.

Yes.

*Actually nobody said it couldn't be done.

[Mego]

That's pretty impressive, reading all of Homestuck in a month. And I thought my 6-hour Problem Sleuth binge was crazy.

Spring Break has begun, and I'm spending the whole thing doing three things I love doing.

1. Working on a bagpipe
2. Hurdling like a baws
3. Taking a week off from the crushing weight of final projects for high school and college. (Where everything is, "DO THIS NOW OR DON'T GRADUATE.")

While we're on the topic of webcomics, I caught up on Gunnerkrigg Court today. It's really good. Took me two days of on-and-off reading, but hey.

[Reudh]

I'm going to a 21st tonight. It's a masquerade-themed one. Totes rockin' the top hat, blazer, cane and mask.
Expect photos in the photoshare thread.

[penguinofhonor]

Ooh, that sounds awesome. The only themes I get at parties around here are toga, underwear, pajama, and football game team colors. I'm going to the latter tomorrow, not for the football though.

[stretch] I appear to have been semi set up with a very nice man at a mutual friend's seemingly recurring movie night. It's usually awkward even among those few nice friends who know all about me.... Most have someone or are married. I don't. So, they'll cuddle up together and I'll just sorta hang out. Thankfully I just chill out through it and it's not weird or anything, but if you looked, then it wouldn't be hard to see 6 couples and ... one single person...

So far he's nice the past two times and tonight I cuddled up to him a little instead of just sitting there while everyone else did. It was nice not to be the odd person out.

[Rose]

they'll cuddle up together and I'll just sorta hang out.

I know how you feel. So much.

[Descan]

Lucky duck.

[Reudh]

Cuddling's all well and good as long as it's reciprocated between both parties.

The amount of female hugs I have had this year is Close To Zero.
Hmf.

[Descan]

What about male hugs?
