While I kind of agree with you, it's why anyone who bets online (and especially someone who has lost significant online bets like Wil), should clarify everything super carefully and get it in writing exactly what you are betting on in a way that leaves no grey area. Wil does not do this because he is not a smart person.

My read on this was it's just an offer to make a moron look like a moron, then go off the deep end again and say more things a moron would. jalfrezi succeeded in this. It's very similar to the dumb Ann Coulter thing. She never intended on going to Berkeley, just stirring the pot. People took the bait. So did Wil.

My enjoyment of angle shooters self owning themselves transcends even the pwning of fake liberal lying scumbags. Once again, you are wrong

And again Victor, you repeatedly have lied and misrepresented my positions. Shocking

Dan, does the fact that every "liberal" on this forum doesn't believe or trust you, while juan and wil think you're teammates trouble you ever?

Why would it trouble him? He fully intends to associate with that side.

100% wil should pay up. If you're gonna bet, make sure you don't have a typo in the terms of the damn bet.

Will is of course a total dope but thats weak sauce.

Nothing can ever touch the time Wil made a bet that some guy didn't make more money than him after disclosing to everyone how much money he made. That one was made especially awesome by the other guy sending like a mid February pay stub as proof, meaning he made more in like 6 weeks than Wil does in a year.

Ikes perma can't be anywhere near the top it was too drawn out.

It's probably like:
Black Friday
Super users

-----gap----

Brandi
DBJ
Wil

I'm sure there are other welching and bad moments I'm forgetting though. I think there was a HS dude who ran off with the money for a FFB league in HSNL. I'm sure there are way more scams as well.

There was a crazy woman who drove to metsandfinsfan's house intending to kill him (the sane part), but then somehow ended up blowing him instead (the crazy part).

Brandi was a different crazy woman who was seen with Sklansky and then killed herself. Oral sex situation unclear.

Pretty sure I easily could if the practice were normalised.

Forgot about the guy who killed the thai hooker. To be fair, I don't think he actually posted about it, just had a POG werewolf meltdown then did the deed.
No memory of chuddo.
Forgot about the lol WV as well.

WVUSkinsFan committed suicide to end that one

I think it was tdomeski in SE who welched on some major bet as well.

Was this WVU's squeeze?

She also wrote "I will fly one day" on a wall (or was it a mirror) with her blood.

Using panel data on individual labor income histories from 1957 to 2013, we document two empirical facts about the distribution of lifetime income in the United States. First, from the cohort that entered the labor market in 1967 to the cohort that entered in 1983, median lifetime income of men declined by 10%–19%. We find little-to-no rise in the lower three-quarters of the percentiles of the male lifetime income distribution during this period.

Quote:

Partial life-cycle profiles of income observed for cohorts that are currently in the labor market indicate that the stagnation of lifetime incomes is unlikely to reverse. Second, we find that inequality in lifetime incomes has increased significantly within each gender group. However, the closing lifetime gender gap has kept overall lifetime inequality virtually flat. The increase within gender groups is largely attributed to an increase in inequality at young ages, and partial life-cycle income data for younger cohorts indicate that the increase in inequality is likely to continue. Overall, our findings point to the substantial changes in labor market outcomes for younger workers as a critical driver of trends in both the level and inequality of lifetime income over the past 50 years.

Well that's not good
