The one that gets me is when people use literally for figuratively.Quote:

They are literally changing the word to the opposite of its intended meaning.
Figuratively, it would be like calling ice fire & calling fire ice.
Although I guess it would literally be like that too,
On another Website, I said something like,"Doesn't literally mean really?" A Poster responded something like, "It does mean really, but people use it the wrong way such as," That Comedy movie I saw last night at the movie theater was very funny. I literally died laughing!" If they "literally died laughing," they wouldn't be alive."Quote:

Exactly. What they should have said was “I figuratively died laughing” unless they literally really did die, but then they literally would not have been around to tell you the story because they would literally be dead.Quote:

It's unlikely any of you people realize how boring almost everything you try to fill up your time with here, is. And back & forths with a waste of life like tasha does nothing towards improving your sad situations.
Why isn't this retard posting fake jackpots from his fake RV?
When I retweet, I also like. Am I doing it wrong?Quote:

I check in here every few years to see what's changed and see not much. Rob hanging out in the shit-hole that is Reno while telling the "little people" that they waste their meager lives posting here. All the while he's been posting here for 15 years, monitoring every post. Can't make that shit up...LOL...Please respond Rob, I love to see you wasting you old age away here. I'll check back 5 years from now, although I'll assume you will be dead by then.....Quote:

years and years and years ago, I talked to my father about doing videos just like this. Me and him playing VP and Slots. We decided against it because we didn't want to influence people to gamble at all...
On the positive side, think of all the people you saved from gambling.Quote:

Gambling videos when well done can entertain.
Most such videos are arguably viewed for folks who already gamble and who just want a vicarious fix.
Then posting videos of doing fentanyl should be very successful too.Quote:

Admit it, you guys sat around and laughed, thinking, who the hell is going to be interested in watching people play slots and video poker?
Honestly I think Alan would have done ok with a slot channel seeing that video. He surely was willing to not take himself too seriously.Quote:

I have no doubt he would have done very well along with his son, especially if they got in early. It seems like they already had all the equipment and skills for filming and video editing. Alan has a good camera presence and is videogenic.Quote:

Dealer mistake dilemma. Baccarat hand starts at 54:32
https://youtu.be/BNQnZGlKfEg?si=6lvq3EEyI4mOCh4J&t=3272
Betting banker, the player hand is dealt 3-3; banker hand is dealt 6-5 and draws a 6 for a total of 7.
Because it's a no-commission table, the three-card banker 7 only pushes instead of winning. As W2Jesus is commenting that the main bet doesn't win, the dealer pays the main bet. After about 5 seconds of stunned silence, WBG reaches in and points out the incorrect pay. The dealer doesn't immediately understand, but finally comprehends and withdraws the chips.
Had the Matt crew not spoken up, I think they would've gotten grief from virtue signalers in the comments.
