Languish Powerball Pool!

[Baron von Schtinkenbutt]

Use the 35$ to buy Powerball tickets for saturday.

I wonder how much those 72k tickets people have made.

One of the winners was in Florida, so maybe they did it.

that guy does look like Apu

Which begs the question, where does that come from?

Video games.  And that loud Rock and Roll music all the kids are listening to these days.

You forgot Dungeons & Dragons.
1st edition.

Which begs the question, where does that come from?

It's clearly not from you and no doubt your wife, so where, other children, the wider culture?   Capitalism in tooth and claw? 

Berkut did lean libertarian for a while...

I've said before in the context of discussions about the feasibility of a Social Democratic welfare state in this country that it wouldn't work because we are a nation of Scotch-Irish tinker con artists.

So my son, being the devious sort, was trying to figure out how I could screw all of you in some scam.

It was kind of alarming how adamant he was about how I should just keep the money for the tickets, or keep all the money if we won.

He was very upset when I told him I took pictures of the tickets and posted them.

Then he started thinking about how I could just fake pictures, and keep the money, and not buy any tickets at all.

I mentioned that would be kind of a problem if the "fake" pictures had a winning ticket, and he pointed out that the odds of that happening were very small, and probably much smaller than the odds of getting caught stealing in pretty much any other possible fashion.

IE, you take the money, fake up some pics, and run the 1/million chance of actually having to pay out.

I have to say, the little shit is scary devious. He is either going to end up in jail, or an investment banker. Or both.

Goldman Sachs is his destiny, congratulations.  I suggest that you provide whatever encouragement and support to him that is needed

I had a dream once where I won the powerball. I bought a village in Slovenia and painted FU Jaron on all the roofs so you could find it on google earth. It was weird.

I wish someone would do totally crazy shit like that if they won.

If I ever win the lotto, I promise you people I will.

[Monoriu]

If I win the lottery, none of you will hear about it. 

[Jacob]

If I win the lottery, none of you will hear about it.

You'll have to play to win, though.

[Eddie Teach]

If I win the lottery, none of you will hear about it.

We'll have to guess from the increasing amount of travel stories and complete lack of work stories.

You probably won't stick around reading them if I go on and on about the same boring work stories forever 

[crazy canuck]

Because Languish won't win.

Well, we know who the Languish Pool shareholders should blame 

[DGuller]

Yeah.  There aren't too many lottery winners around who think that playing lottery is stupid.  Maybe there is a lesson to be learned there for the future?
