Back-to-back Friday the 13ths, and another one later in the year. Born under a bad star.

What month can't have a Friday the 13th?
link to original post



To be fair the ONLY reason we get back to back Friday the 13th is because February and March fall on the same exact days and February had a Friday the 13th so March has a Friday the 13th. 💡 Speaking of Friday the 13th, Seminole Classic Casino is having a Friday the 13th free play drawing. 😀

Are you planning on gambling any this Friday Friday the 13th?

Bill Harrah didn’t believe in unlucky numbers which is why Harrah’s Tahoe has a 13th floor.

In Vegas however you won’t find a 4th or 13th floor anywhere, unless they have a 13th at Harrah’s Vegas (never stayed there). No #4 spot on a Bacc table either. It’s actually gotten to where the only numbers on a Bacc table are in Chinese.
I tell you it’s wonderful to be here, man. I don’t give a damn who wins or loses. It’s just wonderful to be here with you people. https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/gambling/betting-systems/33908-the-adventures-of-mdawg/

Thank God I called and got the exact date my ban expires and didn't just show up on the 11th for Bingo! I could have been PERMANENTLY TRESSPASSED for coming literally just four days earlier if I had done that! 😱😳

Would you rather go down in History as a Traitor or not be remembered in History? I saw a film where someone said,"If I say yes, I won't be remembered in History. If I say no, I'll be remembered in History as a Traitor. I'll say yes. " 🤔💡 I personally would have also said yes. Better to not be remembered in History than tobe remembered as a Traitor. 🤔💡

I am always thought that the saying,"True Friends stab you in the front," meant that a True Friend let's you see exactly who is stabbing you, they make no attempt to hide that they are the ones stabbing you whereas a fake friend will stab you in the back when you aren't facing them like a total coward, but according to Google, "True Friends stab you in the front, is more along the lines of,"A true friend will tell you to your face things they don't like about you whereas a fake friend will tell you how much they like you to your face and will talk bad about you behind your back. 🤔💡

Well, I went to Seminole Classic Casino for Bingo today and Player's Club Staff Members told me that I am banned from Bingo for LIFE! 😱😳 I am not banned from other Promotions however. 💡 I REALLY screwed myself by reusing old Bingo cards that already previously lost. 😐🤦‍♀️😱😳 I screwed myself out of getting a FREE $300/$600 for LIFE. 😱💡🤦‍♀️😐

Thank you for answering Automatic Monkey's quote to me for me. 😀 I meant to respond to AM by saying,"I can't go back in disguise because the Bingo ban is on my Player's Club card," but was remiss to not respond. 💡

So... you could spend thousands on getting a new identity, get a new player's card, and go back... only to get banned again?

I also thought of the fact that someone could get plastic surgery and a new ID but that would be way too much trouble for just a possible $300/$600 once a month. 💡

Not necessary! Pay a hooker who looks something like you to go and get a player's card under her name, and use that.

Then you'll have a new ID, and a great story about that time you went to a hooker.

It will be easy to find a hooker you could pass for on a hooker site, but it might be more challenging to find one who doesn't already have a player's card. A hooker is usually into every kind of vice. Some of them also have bans from casinos.

Thrown out of a casino and arrested because of a false claim of being a prostitute? The barristers of the billboards will have a lot of fun with that! Way more profitable than reusing losing bingo cards. Think big!

Sex workers have access to a lot of hidden information and are relatively easy to exploit, as they are not as streetwise as they think they are.

A guy said something like, "I decided to go on a restaurant date with a woman I meant on tinder. I picked her up at her house and the FIRST SECOND RED FLAG I saw was that she didn't leave with a purse meaning the restaurant date was going to be entirely on me. I was disgusted but still chose to go on the restaurant date with her. She was the rudest, most condescending, insulting date to the waitress I have ever met. I paid for the entire check including tax and tip and told her I NEVER wanted to see her again. I knew something was completely off as soon as I saw she would NOT be paying for her half of the restaurant bill. Her insulting, rude, and condescending attitude towards our waitress was the second and final straw. 💡

I guess I’m different. After divorce 15 years ago it would have been inconceivable to me that if I asked a woman out on a date that I wouldn’t pay for dinner.
Don’t ALL women carry a purse for their ‘stuff’?
Treating waitstaff poorly is a good indicator of not wanting a second date, however.

Yeah, and years later, I'm still paying for it.

Not everyone carries a bag or purse. Many phone cases now seem to integrate a holder for cards.

I saw a viral video where a Woman ordered roughly $46 of food and drinks and her date had a cheap burger meal for roughly $12. She got MAD at him for not paying her roughly $46 bill and just paying HIS roughly $12 burger meal..She said something like,"You asked me out to dinner and aren't going to pay for my food and drinks?" 😡🤬 He responded something like,"I didn't ask you out to dinner. I asked,"Would you like to have dinner with me?" Asking someone out to dinner is,"I want to take you out to dinner." 💡

Years ago, I invited my favorite BJ dealer out for dinner in AC. After several polite rejections, she agreed. We agree to meet for drinks at the Continental, to be followed by dinner at the Brighton Steakhouse. While we're having drinks, a woman joins us who isn't introduced to me and doesn't seem to speak English. Somehow, she ends up coming to dinner with us. First, she complains that the table is too dark, then she is upset that the menu isn't in Spanish. She ordered creamed spinach and a baked potato and then insisted that we share our steaks with her. Before we are finished, she leaves, without ever saying much to me, let alone introducing herself. Her share of the bill was only about forty dollars out of two hundred plus so I didn't say anything.
There was no second date, nor was there any desire to have one.

Bill Ryan, you seem to have been dining with some real jerks! 😬😱😳 I remember you saying that an acquaintance ordered top steaks , top wine, top side dishes, top appetizers for you, himself, and your date, and ordered a really intricate and expensive chocolate and ice cream dessert.Your date and yourself had ordered a VERY simple meal, something like burger, fries, and a soda and an ice cream sundae dessert. You and your date's meals were like $45 combined. Your acquaintance's meal was around $200 and he expected you three times split the bill evenly! 😱😳😬 You and your date refused to split the bill evenly three ways and only paid for your own meals and let him pay for his roughly $200 meal and he got MAD 😱😳😬

In your latest post in this thread you mentioned a date who brought her friend to what was supposed to be a privatedate between you and her and her friend turned out to be rude and a complainer and you ended up having to pay for this unexpected third wheel's dinner! 😱😳😬

Not exactly. It was in the early 90s and NYC restaurants were having a special where lunch cost whatever year it was- $19.93 or $19.94.
My friend ordered a very expensive bottle of wine after my date, and I told him we weren't wine drinkers. He ordered dessert for himself and his date, then a second bottle of wine, and got mad when I refused to split the bill 50-50. Our friendship ended, but I didn't lose anything of value. The AC story is from the late 90s or early 2000s.

I believe I mentioned that during COVID, I was part of a $100 dining circle. A group of six to eight of us would go to dinner, try to keep the bill simple, and each leave a $100 bill, leaving the staff a very large tip. After our fourth or fifth time, we were joined by a new person. After dinner, he claimed he was under the impression that we were collectively leaving $100, not each of us. The discussion got loud, and the surprise was ruined. I didn't know the person, so I cut him some slack, but people who knew him better weren't surprised he'd find a way to screw things.

I didn't know he brought his own date. I remember it being only three people, you, him, and your date. 🤔💡 Your Friend was a jerk to order two expensive bottles of wine and expect you and your date to PAY EVENLY knowing you and your date didn't drink wine. 😱😳😬😡🤬

About the second part, I could see how a complete Newcomer mistook,"$100 EACH for $100 COMBINED. It's actually a forgiveable assumption since he was brand new. 🤔💡

Pleasant Green has a video about a Scammer who sends random emails to people claiming he hacked their webcam and knows that they watch porn and will expose the porn watching to the people's Friends unless they pay him $100. A Poster said something like, "Real Friends would already know all your kinks such as you watch porn so the Scammer's $100 scheme would go absolutely nowhere. "💡

A few years ago, I got a series of similar blackmail emails.
I could either send funds to a bitcoin wallet, or the blackmailers would physically mail highlight photos of the disgusting things I'd done from my webcam (paralleled with screenshots) to everyone on the street where I used to live.

Not having a webcam, I wasn't particularly worried, and opted not to pay. (I was reasonably careful not to activate any tracking pixels.)
May the cards fall in your favor.

So, the guy offering to sell me the x-rated webcam videos of you doesn't have the real thing?

I know a couple of guys who got that kind of blackmail, but with a twist- they actually were screwing around in "those" chatrooms and sent nudes of themselves! Yeah, I don't get it either.

But I told them that if you pay the Bitcoin, you are in exactly the same position after you pay as before, except poorer. Therefore the only solution is to ignore them, their requests,and what anyone who gets your nudes might think of them. As far as I know they don't actually follow through with the threats. Too much work, and they want the target to feel like the whole world will be pointing at him alone and laughing, and that loses effectiveness the more people you know who got the same treatment so it's better for business to make the threat but not follow through.

One of these Scammer situations ended with a VERY sad twist. A 17 year old Boy THOUGHT he was sending Nudes to a BEAUTIFUL Teenage girl but he was ACTUALLY sending them to some UGLY and old Male Scammer. The Male Scammer admitted he was actually an old Male Scammer not some BEAUTIFUL Teenage girl. He blackmailed the 17 year old boy for a LOT of money claiming he would send the nudes to the boy's classmates, friends, and family and claim that the 17 year old boy WILLINGLY sent the nude pictures to an older MALE which would have made the 17 year old Boy look gay when he was actually straight and scammed into thinking he sent his nudes to a Teenage girl.

The 17 year old boy sent him the money and the Scammer asked him for even more money which he sent. The 17 year old boy ended up broke and desperate and committed suicide because he spent all his money and the Scammer told him if he didn't send any more money, he would send the nudes out and put out the false story. His friends and family were completely devastated that the Scammer lured this young 17 year old boy out of his nudes, his money, and caused him to commit suicide. They urged Teenagers in similar situations to not send money but to report the Scammer to their friends and family and call the police. 💡

1. The likelihood of me offing myself due to embarassment has been greatly overestimated.
2. "She" isn't 14/f/cali.

Thanks. That certainly saves me from spending $2.50 on those x-rated Dieter webcam videos.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I have never sent a naked picture of myself to anyone. Of course, no one wants to see a naked picture of me.
