$200 per clubbing trip? Remember the dude that brought half a mil to the club only to have it stolen from his truck? https://www.cbsnews.com/news/lotto-winner-robbed-at-strip-club/

You are going to have to pay taxes either way whether you lump-sum or take 30 payments. If you don't take lump-sum, it gets paid as an annuity over 29 years. That means you would get like 30 million as a first payment and then like 180 million as a final payment 29 years from now. It is not 30 equal payments. Bird in hand and all that.

I am curious where everyone would park a half billion dollars if they won. Bitcoin, right?

then, not the.

There is math and the there is pattern recognition. Math: 8 + 11 = 19; regardless of the incorrect lines prior. Pattern recognition: There are 2. A) The sum above added to the addends below. You get 40. B) 8*11+8=96. or The sum above added to the addends below accounting for the missing sequences. You get 96. Three answers, all equally correct.

Christ was most probably a liberal. He has been called a long-haired radical socialist jew in the past. https://youtu.be/yY3HUDhe7jk I was talking about CRIST. Chain gang Charlie. Former Republican Governor. Now if you consider Jeb Bush to be a liberal, I imagine you feel the majority of Republican candidates over the last 20 or so years to also be RINOs. Think Dole, W, Romney, McCain. That was the thinking of the Tea Party faction of the party. My question was: While Crist is certainly to the left of Rand Paul, he historically would not fit in the party of Bernie and AOC. What the hell happened that he is now the Dem nominee and almost universally hated by Republicans in the State?

While I'm not registered to vote there, I have been spending a lot of time recently at a beach house in Florida. I see 10 DeSantis commercials to every 1 for Charlie Crist. Most of the people I talk to have contempt for Crist, but no one can really articulate why. Usually just "career politician" but isn't that true of most. I lived in Florida in the 80's and again during Jeb's early years. I recall Chain gang Charlie as a Republican Governor that won following Bush. Can some of the Florida TUSCL guys explain to me how Crist is not a conservative to centrist candidate. Compared to the dope snorting, gay escort hiring, OD in a motel room mayor that came way too close to a win four years ago, this seems like an election with no down side.

What's the old saying? Lotteries are a tax on people bad at math. 1.5 billion in grand prize. The lottery pays out around 50% for all winning tickets combined, so waaay over 3 billion collected from dreamers. Odds of winning: around 1 in 292.2 million. By comparison, the odds of being struck by lightning in a given year are less than 1 in 1 million and the odds of being attacked and killed by a shark are around 1 in 4.3 million. But, yeah, I grabbed a quick pick while in line at the liquor store. Hope I don't get struck by lightning while being attacked by a shark this weekend.

SJG said "It turns out that I might not always be posting enough to remain on top. Some might have noticed that I am not posting as much as I was 4 months ago. I have more things going on, taking up more of my time." IE. I'm being moved to a group home farther from my San Jose Public Library access.

If you haven't seen it, Mike Judges Tales from the Tour Bus is a good series. Season 1 episode 2 is all about Jerry Lee Lewis. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/tales_from_the_tour_bus/s01/e02

COVFEFE.

At 205 lbs., to have a 19 BMI you would have to be you would have to be 7' 3" tall. BMI is frequently really misleading. Same BMI for a 6' 200 lbs. weight training athlete with a 15% body fat and a doughy 6' 200 lbs. couch potato with a 35% body fat.

I totally get what Muddy is saying. When the unappealing new girl comes on stage and I stand so fast my chair goes skittering across the floor and I loudly exclaim "AWW, Hell No!" as I turn and walk away; the rest of you guys are being insensitive if you follow suit. Please have the decency to stay seated and tip a little bit for at least part of a dance. Over time, if you're lucky, you may also develop the cat like reflexes that allow you to be the first to leave.

I sure hope the new site allows for a "sarcasm font" for the poor souls that take every post literally.

"if you're bored, then you're boring" Harvey Danger 1997 Oh shit, I've caught the CJKent disease.

According to the article, Alaska's most common swear word is DICK??? You just smashed your thumb with a hammer and "dick" is the best you can do? Someone cuts you off in traffic and you call them a "dick" when you have sooo many better options?

I can see the concern if this was an unsupervised toddler in a house that wasn't child-proof, but at 2 months the kid is basically a doorstop. It's not going anywhere. It might surprise some of you but single moms everywhere manage to sleep, shower, cook meals, clean house, and yes, even have sex without dire consequences.

I think it is probably one of the following: Having achieved his stated goal of becoming the all time leading poster (based on volume), he has retired. He has been banned from the SJPL for violating it's terms of use agreement. He came down with Covid 19 and found out that a good nights sleep doesn't cure it after all. He needs a new chain for his Huffy. Really hoping it is the retired option.

Scrub, you like SJG, seem to have trouble recognizing humor. Try Googling "verbal irony". Also, rein in the rage, man. You're liable to stroke out.

Collectible cars. I'll get a new toy which brings me great joy. I'll spend way too much time and money getting it just right. For some reason, when it's finally there, I will get quickly bored and start looking for a new toy to spend more money on. Booze. Over the years have gradually developed a taste for high end tequilas and whiskeys. I have some bottles that really should have been maintained as a collectibles, but I always end up drinking them.

Don't you just hate it when you pop in for a quick read and then have to take the time to login to activate your ignores because scrub has polluted the thread with multiple of his raging homoerotic posts.

I don't have any first hand knowledge about behind the scenes racial tension in the clubs. However, I have seen a few clubs that gradually went from mixed to predominately or all black (or all Cuban) and couldn't help but wonder if the original dancers were driven out, it was a management decision, or if it was just an organic thing.

Not so much a question as a common interaction, but: Stripper approaches a customer, grabs his crotch and says "ooh, you've got a big one!". Customer gets a shit eating grin. Customer approaches a stripper, grabs her crotch and says "ooh, you've got a big one!". Customer wakes up in the ER.

What’s with the scrubs and SJG minivan obsession? Since when is you or your mother drives a minivan considered a sick burn? Personally, I like the classics. “you empty headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!”

"So are you a hood rat or white trash? No one else has pitbulls from what I've seen" Maybe get out of your neighborhood once in awhile.
