If OP really does have autism then all those of us who have taken the piss should be ashamed of ourselves. Seriously.


If he hasn't, I'd like to withdraw my question about whether it is legal in Texas to marry your sister and ask instead if it legal to marry your hamster?

It's not the first time OP has made this claim. Is it true? No idea. I do know he also claims to only have poor grammar and spelling because this is the Internet and he doesn't care.

If he truly does have autism, and this is the best he can write, then I have some simple suggestions:

1) Use Firefox instead of IE...it has a spell checker. I use it, it's great.

2) Read more, post less. Stop interjecting your opinion into threads you know nothing about. Many of us are guilty of doing this sometimes. Just makes us look silly, and helps no one.

i truly do have autism and a learning disorder because of it ,and my family believes it is because of a shot the goverment require me to take to be able to attend public school. of course my parents had no idea that he might cause autism i cant rember the number of the top of my head but i believe it was 1 out every ten plp that took this shot got autism.my parents believe this because i was much more outgoing before i got the shot and sowly became very shy. second the goverment no longer uses this shot.

Why are you playing poker then? You'd make more from a lawsuit.

If money is meaningless to you, why do you want to gamble for real money? It seems pointless, like gambling for grains of sand. Wouldn't play money suffice? If you're as tight with money as you say, this whole thing makes no sense.

At any rate, judging from this thread it seems like poker would be a really, really bad idea for you.

Or a really, really good one for us...

Isn't autism hereditary? As in you are either born with it or not and can't be caused after birth by a shot? Maybe the government did have something to do with your disorder. Maybe the government secretly gives children those shots in Texas to keep the population ******ed enough to keep voting for Republicans?

Also, danger, have you tried depositing those gift cards into a checking account? eChecks are very big now.

Anyone who thinks that a checking account can be funded with a pre-paid credit card has no right to call folks ******ed.

Also, no one knows what causes autism, but like eChecks, it's very big now. If you don't git you an autistic baby on your first one, you best git tryin' again soon! However, most studies indicate that babies exhibit symptoms well before a child would require a shot to attend public school, even a pre-K program.

The only gift cards I've ever used were for specific stores. But can't VISA gift cards be cashed out and then taken to a bank to open a checking account?

Bank of America has a checking account called My Access Checking and its completely free. From their website it lists how you can make your initial deposit. Click the "Open Online" Tab and read step #3.


"It's easy to put in money when you apply online or any time afterward:

* Use a credit card, check card, or transfer money from another bank account during the application process
* Make a deposit at any of our over 17,000 ATMs, 5,700 banking centers or by mail"

So Bank of America claims you can fund with a credit card online without ever having to go to a bank and there is no minimum deposit. Why wouldn't this solve OP's problem?

Sounds like a winner to me, money-wise. I hadn't ever heard of that before. I wouldn't bank on it working w/a pre-paid card (get it? "bank"?) but it's worth a try, I suppose.
Because he can't use them to buy a time machine to keep from getting "THE SHOT."

Pretty funny imo

WTF are you talking about? I have people very close to me who have low level autism and I'd like to point out a couple of things about this neurological abnormality:

1) It does not make you stupid. OP clearly is and any fun that comes out of that is fair game imo.

2) It does not make you incapable of using spell check. Hell, I'm flat out dyslexic and I can still make readable posts with the miracle of computerized spell checking.

3) It doesn't make you want to marry your sister or your cousin.

Keep poking the fun guys. There are no moral considerations regarding OP's condition.

ok first of all the goverment just paid thousands of plp because of this shot and it wasnt the Texan goverment but the ferdal goverment. and this is a new discovery that not all autism is born with it or not. noone else in my famliy has it i cant sue because it was a group law suit and we found out to late.

ovb u just post and read none of mine and just like to poke fun at plp because if u have read any my post u know i do spend money on gambling becasue that is the enterment i love

who ever said i married my sister or a hamster certianly not me in fact i never comfrined i even have a sister. so u are clearly just an jack who like likes to poke fun at plp to boast your self-stem because you have no life.

for all of u telling me to use echecks i can't do that for reasons i won't go into.

The thing is danger... any 22 year old can open up a free checking account. If you can't then I guess that proves you aren't really 22 and all these people who have been posting were right. Don't worry though, there is a chance that online poker will still be around for years to come. Maybe even by the time it is legal for you to play the UIEGA will be gone and you won't have any problems depositing.

Stupidity is a DISEASE and you are a POS if you make fun of stupid people. THEY CAN'T HELP IT!!

i have a checking account do the reason i cant deposit is becasue i will be filling for socai serctiy becasue no will hire me becasue of my autism or bc of lack of work experince

It is quite obvious that this poster has serious problems communicating clearly and that is a fundamental difficulty for those with autism.

We are now well past the point where it is the OP who is being made to look foolish by anything that is posted and into the territory where those poking fun are no obviously no more than than loathsome idiots who will pick on anyone to increase their own rather pathetic self esteem.

If any moderator has any sense of propriety they will close this thread now.

Continuing to make fun of someone with genuine communication difficulties doesn't make anyone look big or clever, it just makes them look like a bullying oaf.

I apologise for my sister and hamster comments. These were made when I was not convinced that the OP wasn't having a joke at our expense.

Sorry danger, I'm not familiar with social security other than it comes out of a paycheck and that by the time I'm old enough to get that money back it won't exist anymore. I didn't know that people who receive social security can't deposit or withdraw money from their checking accounts. So um, when you get your social security checks how will you cash it or deposit it?

Autistic people have trouble communicating because they don't understand what constitutes appropriate subjects or interaction and because they lack empathy. They don't misspell everything and talk in a jumbled mess.

no it not that u cant depsoit or withdraw it is that ssi keep a colse watch of what u spend your money on and that is why i brought the gift cards bc i got cash they do not know about

u clearly don't know anyone with atuism beacuse if u did u wouldnt make these streotypical statment about pepole with atuism because i can be the niceset person u will ever known if u treat me with respect instead this bull crap most of u guys chose to dish out

Ah that stinks man. Damn government doesn't like anyone to have any fun. It is strange you can't get your all access card to work. Is there a website or phone number on the back of the card you could go to to check the balance or activate it?

Oh, and there is always the freerolls you can play to build a bank roll. Check this article on Chris Ferguson out.
