You just have to play it out right.

Dad: "Yeah. this world is going down the shitter. What the **** is going on in this world, people are shooting up movie theaters, it's just not right."

Gambling son: "**** yeah dad, it's messed up. I had $100 on Batman selling more than $160 million in ticket sales and I lost because of that tool"

Dad: "Son, show some respect, is everything always about your goddamn bets?"

Gambling son: "Well there was expected value. The majority of estimates before the premiere was $160 million plus easily and I was only laying -130 so it was cool."

Dad: (shakes head)
