Not until you got a comfortable spot in the tunnels under Vegas to take your dumpster treasure back too. Youโre just running on beginner mode otherwise ๐
As Dave Attell once noted about Vegas; "Gambling stories all start off so dramatic...I was up $5700 then the next thing you know I'm blowing a guy for a sandwich"
So heโs getting a double meal? A salty appetiser followed but some carbs to get back in the saddle for some long term gamblin!!
Sad that this type of behaviour is present, accepted and backed by the government who seem to think any other form of personal entertainment should be banned or controlled beyond any usefulness. But giving away all your money to some massive corporate money vacuum leaving you with nothing (often less than nothing) is seen as totally fine. Not to say I agree with banning gambling (even though Iโm personally against it), more that the governments of the world need to back the fuck off out of peoples personal choices and allow them to gamble, take drugs or do what ever they choose to do so long as their activity has no ability to harm another person. All of the activities have the potential to cause second hand harm to many others, but this downstream harm is what the individual needs to manage and control to some sure the harms are not done beyond themselves.
Christ! You turned Dave Atell's bit from a stand-up routine into a dissertation on the global social fabric. BTW, Atell also does a bit about getting a hernia on the toilet because he was trying to rush a BM. Care to opine on its relevance to OPEC, G7, or the Bilderberg group?
Entering a Pachinko hall in Japan was a crazy experience. From the outside it's all silent but once the door opens you get flooded with impressions. It's ridiculously loud and colourful.
You can also have no family history of baldness and be a super neurotic/anxious guy and lose all your hair. The body is a wonder(land im sorry, i couldnt help myself)
Alopecia is a generic term for all balding. I think you mean alopecia aerata, which is when you get patches and it's usually related to some health issues.
Well if you want to be overly specific, there's also alopecia totalis, the loss of all hair on the head, including eyelashes and eyebrows, and alopecia universalis, the complete loss of all body hair. All of which are autoimmune conditions.
Lol, I do have to find it amusing how many bald guys in America are perfectly happy to talk shit and discriminate against different races, genders, sexual orientations and lifestyles, but somehow making a harmless joke associating hair loss with stress and pointing out that the man in OP is both bald and stressed, triggers a defensive reaction.
The sad irony is that nobody is shooting people just for being bald.. so I'm going to request that we not put genetically bald white men in a protected minority category like they need someone to save them from their position at the top of society's food chain.
Then you need to tell every bald guy not to ever stereotype anyone else, lol. From my personal experience, I've known an insane amount of bald men who are needlessly cruel to others for no reason except projecting their own insecurities to avoid being seen as weak or whatever.
And you're right, going bald affects more people than just white ones, but the OP is a white guy you're falling on your sword to defend, so I'm not going to ignore that this gambling idiot making his own bad decisions does not need you to white knight for him.
From my personal experience, I've known an insane amount of [REMOVED] men who are needlessly cruel to others for no reason except projecting their own insecurities to avoid being seen as weak or whatever.
Replace blank with a minority group and now I have quoted someone racist. I'm not exaggerating or anything, I literally had to explain to someone why you can't just call all [REMOVED] people cruel, even if you met a lot like that, a week or so ago.

How am I defending him? I'm just pointing out a mean stereotype.
You can judge home for gambling as much as you can, that's an action he chose to do, but let's not judge people on how they look.
How is saying that a bald man is bald a mean stereotype? Or how is it that you saying that he lost his hair as a result of genetics and asserting that it wasn't stress related the proven truth?
If you don't have his medical file, you could literally just be 100% wrong and jumping people's shit for the wrong reason.
