Nathan's Corner

Wow, technology is getting scarier by the SECOND. For fun, I decided to look up my Stepmother's name and MY name came up as her possible Acquaintance. It's bad enough that you can find MY name on a page for my STEPMOTHER, but I was able to CLICK on my name, and the link tells the world my first name, my Middle initial, and my last name, my complete home Address, my birthday, my Email Address . 🥶😵‍💫similar thing happened with my Stepmother where HER personal information is on the page too. 🥶😵‍💫

I went to a Walmart yesterday that has no self checkout and people were gaming the system. Speedy Checkout CLEARLY says,"10 items or less," and people had CARTS filled with items, they know DAMN WELL that they were in the wrong line. I just wanted to buy my ONE gallon of milk and leave. I was able to get rung up in Customer Service, MUCH quicker. :)

That also slightly bothers me when people do that.

Speaking of things at big box stores that bother me….people leaving carts in parking spaces. One time when I was at Walmart, as I’m walking in some old lady stops directly in front of a parking space that has a cart blocking it and asked me to move it rather than getting out and doing it herself. So I did. Then she happens to be leaving the store at the same time as me as well, and I saw her leave that damn cart right back in the middle of that parking spot instead of putting it back 5 yards away.

I really felt like yelling at an old lady right there, but just went on with my day instead and randomly posted about it on the internet a couple years later.

doesn't Walgreens sell gallons of milk? Plus you probably get a discount being an employee

Walgreens sells gallons of milk for about $4.39. 😐 Walmart sells gallons of milk for $3.03. 😀 And no, Walgreens doesn't get employee discount on milk. 😐

Apparently, a LOT of Women think/thought Denzel Washington is/was one of the finest looking men of all time. 😵‍💫 To me, Denzel is VERY average looking. He is not ugly, not handsome. Just snack dab in the middle for me. 😵‍💫

It's Nathan's Corner, so I'm posting random feelings and thoughts. 💡

Before Covid happened, I had a Coworker borrow $80 from me. I was getting $120 in free play a WEEK, from Casinos, so I wasn't rushing her for the loaned money back. I loaned her the $80 MONTHS before happened. ovid happened,and Casinos got closed down during Lockdown and Shutdowns, so I wasn't getting the $120 a week anymore. I politely asked my Coworker for $40 of the $80 and she went off on me! 😱😳😵‍💫🥶😐🙄😒🤨 I politely pointed out that I was only asking for HALF of the loaned money back and she was PISSED! She later calmed down and admitted I was fair as hell to not ask her any money back for MONTHS and then only asked for HALF of the money back and apologized for getting mad at me and going off on me and was like,"I'm surprised you didn't cuss me out for how I spoke to you. "She paid me back the full $80.

I must confess, my posts are often me just trying to come across as mature, smart, wise, and insightful, but I come across as a fool. For instance, I said something like,"Vegas is going down badly Casino wise because about 46 States now have Casinos and nobody REALLY travels to Vegas anymore for gambling. Posters replied something like,"Vegas isn't going down badly. About 100 Million people are STILL traveling to Vegas in 2024. You REALLY should do more." thorough research before you post inaccurate posts such as these."

When I was Kentry on here, I was being treated like a joke, and a Poster said,"I lost more money than I wanted to in a bad Casino run. I, as Kentry thought,"I'm tired of being treated like a joke on WOV. Here is my chance to come across as mature, smart, wise, and insightful!" I responded," You really should stop gambling. You already lost money you NEEDED. If you don't stop gambling, you'll end up homeless on the streets, begging people for money!" The guy responded,"It wasn't money I NEEDED, and I don't appreciate Posters on WOV speaking to me like I am a degenerate Gambler. WOV Posters seem condescending. Maybe I should just leave." A Poster responded,"The majority of us do not think you are a degenerate Gambler. Only ONE person spoke to you like you were a degenerate Gambler and Kentry shouldn't have said that to you. Kentry was completely out of line with the insensitive remarks to you. Kentry owes you an immediate apology, but I'll apologize to you for Kentry." Other Posters responded,"Kentry REALLY shouldn't be giving advice on WOV."

I as Kentry was trying to come across as mature, smart, wise, and insightful with that "advice," I gave the Poster, but I came across as a condescending, insensitive, rude Jerk. I didn't get the kudos, praise, and brownie points I was looking for with that "advice," that was meant to make ME look good, not actually help the Poster out. As an interesting note, what I was hoping would happen FOR me, would have pissed me off if it happened TO me. I would have been pissed if I were the Poster and Posters were hijacking my thread talking about how mature, smart, wise, and insightful some random Poster in my thread was. 💡

I am going to do Bingo tomorrow, I promise! 😀

And... I lost the first round of Bingo. 😫 Wish me luck I win at least ONE Bingo round today. 😀

And, I lost the second round of Bingo. 😫

I lost the third round of Bingo! 🤬😡 By ONE number! 😡🤬

Delete.

And, I lost the fourth round of Bingo by ONE number! 😡🤬 On TWO different cards! 🤬😡

And, I lost the fifth round of Bingo by ONE number! 🤬😡

I lost the sixth round of Bingo by ONE number! 🤬😡

How many rounds are there?

(I'm guessing any more will also lose by one number...)

At the Casino I am playing Bingo at today, there are 10 rounds of Bingo. 😀 What makes me frustrated is the fact that I have MULTIPLE Bingo cards, and I keep being down by just ONE number. 🤬😡

And I lost the seventh round of Bingo by ONE number! 🤬😡

And... I lost the eighth round of Bingo by ONE number! 🤬😡

And I lost the ninth Bingo round by ONE number on FIVE different cards! 😡🤬This is straight up crap! 😡🤬

And.... I lost the tenth round of Bingo on TWO DIFFERENT cards by ONE number! 😡🤬 I lost EVERY SINGLE ROUND OF BINGO today when I had MULTIPLE cards! 😡🤬, 8 rounds I just needed ONE number to win! 😡🤬

Mathematically, it is very hard to get the last number that you need. If you get to the point that you only need one number to win bingo and there are 30 balls left, your odds are 1 in 30 on each ball. Its only when there are 2 or3 or more numbers that would each give you bingos that you become more likely to win.

So, I'm saying that needing one number to win really isn't super close. It's when there are two, three or more different numbers that will each make you win that you are getting close.

That Bingo for some REALLY weird reason only calls 20 numbers, not 25 like my other Casino Bingos do. I definitely would have had a much better chance to have won with 5 extra numbers being called. 💡

Oh crap! 😱😳 I JUST realized one of my Bingo rounds that I thought had LOST actually WON! I JUST found out a few minutes ago 5 days later! 😱😳 I hope Player's Club Staff will still honor it. 💡🤔

So, on Wednesday, I played Bingo and thought I lost. I took a picture of the winning Bingo numbers before leaving the Casino. Lo and behold, when checking my "losing," Bingo card, , YESTERDAY, I found out that one of my Bingo cards that I thought I LOST on was actually a WINNER! 😱

I called the Casino to speak to Player's Club, but the Casino Employee who answered the phone when I told her about me accidentally mistaking a WINNING Bingo card for a LOSING Bingo told me that there is no direct way to speak to Player's Club. She put me on hold and after the hold, she told me that Player's Club Staff said I can come in person and they can do a late validation and give me the winnings. :) She gave me her name for validation when I get there. 😀 I'm going to Player's Club today. 😀

Here are the winning Bingo numbers.

At EVERY game I've ever been to (including the 25 cent games at the town fair), No Late Bingos is a strict rule.

They must like you.

Probably a one time Courtesy thing for a Player who made a one time mistake. 😀

I went to Player's Club and they denied the Bingo claim. 😫 I won Bingo, only to find it out 5 days too late! 😫
