    In other news, there is a death pool to be bet on in the sbr book. We have people joking about the whole Sandusky thing constantly.

    Yet, this is somehow outside the lines - even though it is actually a wager?

            I wasn't particularly fond of the death pool betting... but that is a little different.

                It is a life fact. We wagered on the box office - the movie we wagered on is the same one this guy went on a killing spree and as a result took lives, injured more.... and also much more down the line effected my wager.

                This is still a betting forum - this is still a wager.
                You lost a 50 dollar bet on a tragic technicality, yet you don't think this is in poor taste? Wow. I hope you are ready when karma comes back and bites you in the ass, or snuffs out your last breath.

                  One was about betting on people dying. The other is about wagering on a box office weekend. Absolutely not the same. Yet the latter is the one looked down upon.

                  You motherfukkers need to sack up and stop getting offended for the sake of being offended.

                  Nobody is trivializing their deaths in this thread, or with this topic. Once again - this was a wager.

                    If I bet the Avengers, and was happy about winning due to the tragic technicality - then sure, bitch all you want.

                    The fact is, I bet the Dark Knight. Two separate things entirely

                    This thread is to see who else lost this bet, partly as a result of this tragic incident. What the fukk part of that is offensive exactly?

                            If I remember correctly TT Warrior had his ass handed to him after some of the assinine comments he made during the Sandusky fiasco.

                            So ur statement isnt fully true.

                              Maybe I am just that kinda person who will never understand people getting offended.

                              My favorite jokes are racist ones. I don't give a shit what anyone has to say jokingly about the Sandusky thing. And don't feel the need to tip-toe through the fukking tulips on this issue.

                              If you are easily offended, then I am sorry - I guess? But, don't read the goddamn thread.

                                when you know better you do better. Obviously you and york were left out of empathy and sensitivity training that most normal people receive as they go through life. Since the world revolves around you and how you feel, I guess the rest of us can just jump off anytime we get ready.

                                  I actually feel for the guys in Colorado, one of the few things that have bothered me in recent memory. I just fail to see how talking about a wager that was obviously messed with as a result, and empathy towards the victims are in any way correlated.

                                  As an aside, I really think the Sandusky thing as it relates to paterno is sensationalized and being run by irrational assholes currently. But I don't want to get into that in this forum, or on any forum.

                                    I'm sure if you contact any of the victims' or injured families' they would take up a collection for your lost wager. Winning or losing money is no big deal to them at this time.

                                      Get over it pal. This isn't the place where people are politically correct or sensitive to matters like this. This forum is full of banged up alcoholic degenerates. OP is discussing the wager. I have to admit, when this happened I thought about how the events in Aurora would affect the wagers. Discussing these wagers on here is a totally different story than discussing this wager over dinner with the wife and some friends. That would be insensitive. Discussing gambling online with other degens is perfectly normal. If you dnt think so, you might be in wrong place.

                                        Once again, you are reaching to try and make this about the victims. This has nothing to do with the victims. It has everything to do with the wager.

                                        Associating this wager with the victims is trivializing the tragedy - something I am not inclined to do.

                                          Try this shit at dinner with wife and friends and see how it turns out if you think that is where it would be appropriate. You will run back here for the internet abuse instead of the dirty looks and potential man neutering you will get from dinner guest with sense.

                                                    I didn't say that. But this thread demonstrates a slight lack of empathy. Not every sociopath becomes a murderer.

                                                      No but it shows a sociopathic quality about you which is very barbaric.

                                                            York.. I'm going to try to be civil with you here..

                                                            What if after 9/11, someone said that lived 20 blocks down said, 'oh man, I can't go running today because it is too dusty outside. Sucks!'

                                                            Doesn't that comment strike you as insensitive?

                                                              How does me gauging ticket sales have anything to do with me being insympathetic. Makes no sense, and your example although FINALLY makes sense, is far from an analogy than what I had said. Firstly a tragedy is a tradegy. 9/11 compared to the other c'mon man. Also I'm referencing a wager not blowing off the tragedy
