    In my town the cheapest drinks are at the casino. They want you drunk, and they want your money in the slots

      LOL! Yup.

      I went gambling ONCE, with my grandparents who loved to go to Foxwoods. Played the slots, lost 20 bucks in a few minutes and got ZERO frisson from it.

      Am like “People get a charge from this…?” as I was sitting there watching the others in the aisle poke the spin button on the machines they were playing, like they were robots…

      I had more fun the rest of the afternoon playing video games in the arcade. It took me a LOT longer to go through 20 bucks there.
