You know what really pisses me the fuck off?? Its those idiots that think they are gonna get rich buying scratch off tickets. How many times have ya gone into a convenience store to purchase gas or whatever and got stuck behind these "lottery rats" Took me 15 minutes during my lunch break the other day just to get gas.

I was behind someone in the gas station last week that used her food stamp card to buy a gallon of milk, and then proceeded to pull out cash and buy 20 scratch tickets. Good to see those tax dollars at work!

As I've said before in another thread, Ahh the lottery, the greatest "tax" that most people don't even think of as a "tax" ever invented!

I had my lottery phase fixed about 15 years ago when the company that my Dad was working for at the time was manufacturing and overseeing the operations of multiple state and national lotteries worldwide A(both traditional lottery tickets and scratch tickets). There was a clause in the contracts of all the employees that worked for the company that prevented them and their immediate family members from buying lottery tickets in the places where they oversaw the operations, to eliminate any questions of impropriates should someone affiliated from the company win

Nobody else likes any of those things, either.

I'd like to add iPad to my list, as well.
Foo Fighters are fantastic. Celery is a good peanut butter edible spoon. Jay Leno is a cool car guy.

Folding fitted sheets? What's the point? Throw it in the washer, then dryer, then put back on the bed. I don't see where folding enters the equation.

See Ctenidae? :razz: I knew someone would stick up for stupid celery. I give in on the fitted sheets. I guess that's an argument I've only had with women.

Folding fitted sheets is, to be sure, a pain.

Celery is just crunchy, stringy water. If I want that, I'll just drink New Jersey tap water.

Zing! Thank you!
