    The Lottery is such BS.
    I played the Mega Millions yesterday and hit the money ball and three other numbers. The odds of me doing this are 1 : 13,781.


    What did I win?? $150 WTF????????????

      The lottery is reverse-socialism. People who can't afford it buy the tickets, and the rich pay less in taxes as a result.

                    i buy 5 bucks worth of the mega millions now and again

                    my wife and i dream of where we would own homes, etc

                    but we realize we are better off putting the 5 bucks in a jar for our daughter

                    we all need to dream sometimes

                      I play it sparingly also. I see the degenerates in full force at my local convenience store lately, spending an hour playing every pick 4 number but 0000 and I want to choke them. It takes me an hour to buy my "Gigantic Asses" magazine.

                            If people knew the true odds of them winning the jackpot, lotteries would be out of business.

                            My grandfather used to buy the lottery everyday for years, but I showed him the numbers and he realized it was a scam.

                                          What's $5 for a dream ha. It's never been about morality. And it's always been about fleecing the public.
