The State Lotteries have all these legal technicalities and stuff protecting it so that the State can make lots of money from thousands of citizens, "Paying a small amount of money to win a larger amount of money by guessing certain numbers" < that requires skill it's not chance is it? Well yah it's chance and it's basically illegal gambling but people like doing it and the states make a small fortune on it.

The Texas Lottery is kind of like taxes, you pay a small amount of money with little or no pay off, and the state makes money off of the money used to buy the tickets. I think the lottery should be done away with, think of the things we could accomplish without giving away a large some of money.

Heh. Monkey, the lottery makes the state more money then they give away.

I stole all the balls from a pool-table once. HARDCORE!

Why bother going to the carnival anyway? You should go to DISNEY LAND! Or if you want money with low chances of succeeding, rob a store.

I don't go to amusement parks at all. The people who run the place are all a bunch of con-men, thieves, scammers and gypsies. And gypsies are all three of the aforementioned words.

Carnie folk should be shot and killed because they're worthless, wretched excuses of human refuse who live with the sole purpose of ripping people off.

While I don't care much for circus folk, they're a completely different bunch of people than the carnie folk. Circus is about performance. Carnival is about ripping you off and stealing your wallet afterwards.

I once had a go of one of those throwing balls at the cement bottles thingie, i knocked one down and the other two balls glanced off the bottles like bullets off superman, the crazy bitch said better luck next time in a patronising tone, so i went to the showbag pavilion, purchased the S.W.A.T team showbag, donned the fake swat team vest, loaded up the crappy supersoaker and did a walk by hosing of the bitch..
