and the darwin thread has completely jumped the rails. it has completely, and i mean all the effin way, devolved to calling each other names. it is kinda funny, in a sad way.

you don't. there is no way to win, over time. the house has all the advantage and the payouts aren't even true to the odds. you are much better off playing 21. there is some skill involved and you actually have the odds in your favor, if you are doing it right.

What happened to the asian hottie spam thread? You'd think that kind of thing would be the only spam that gets served around here, instead of endless Mustang postings.

which thread was that?

i find the mustang postings humorous. nothing like an old man trying to raise the ire of the youngsters to make things interesting.

Good evening guys.

I gave up reading or even looking at the Darwin thread long ago. It is impossible to argue with someone that just "knows" they are right and can ignore any and all evidence that does not square with their belief no matter what.

I am neither awake enough to know what it is like nor care about what is beyond the door at this point. It sounds calm though

Guys I never clicked on this thread until last night and right here on this page I find some thread of sanity, perhaps the only one around here in OT, so thanks for that
