Re: There could be a point.
Your are so right. As advantage players, we were never the type to do as the in crowd did. To get into lieing contests, my bankroll is bigger than your bankroll is, my car i faster than yours is type of BS. We are also not complainers, believe that Murphy's Law holds the universe together, get too drunk, or act a fool. It's time for you to enjoy your feelings for the less than gifted, the human ofal that fills the world with tax payers, losers, and IQ deprived. Try on one of their personalities for a change. Pull it on like a greasy pair of hip waders and have a good laugh at them. Love the person but hate what they have let themselves become. Have you ever told someone "listen to yourself!" trying to get them to see how stupid they are? Have you ever mimicked them to get your point across?? This is your chance to show them how totally stupid they can be! Use your imagination and become a better version of your favorite loser at the table. If they have been out of work for 6 months, you've been out of work for 6 years. They only reason you can play is because on your last 25 cent piece you won the MegaMillions, which is impossible, but makes you look totally stupid, the type of player they love to have at the table. Argue up and down that the 3 wheel 3 dollar machine took your quarter somehow, maybe you were drunk at the time, but you won. Ever had quintuple bypass surgery? WELL! They take your entire heart out of your chest and frig with it with a soldering iron so that it doesn't skip a beat anymore. Take their hand and put it on your check and say SEE? You'll have so much fun I'll bet your forget to count for a while. Hell instead of doing a bathroom -TC pee break, stay and have fun man!! You'll laugh your ass off all the way to the cage. Find the biggest complainer and out do them. Find the biggest liar and out lie them. Find the so called richest player and out rich them. Even your woman has bigger ta tas than Dolly Parton, a bigger backside than J-Lo, and a V10 instead of a six pack for a tum tum. They've found a more precious metal than gold or platinum and you happen to have a patent on it and a 51% share in the only company that is allowed to mine for it. Man, you have to be really OUTHERE to make it work for you.
Remember it is just an act. It can be so powerful it may take over you totally. That's how professional con men get started out. They find that they can fool people with unbelieveable stories, and find a way to lie the money out of their pockets and into yours.
