So just won 2 seats on Draftkings to the NFL live final next weekend in SD. Each seat is worth 80k with a total of 200 entrants. First will take home 5 million....would really make quitting my job last week look like a smarter decision.

will you be stacking NEWTON and GINN in one or both?

teeej,

yeota,

Most I would do is call the bar and try to get the $100 back, but it's been too long for that. Unless money is tight, which it doesn't sound like, just let it go. If your friends don't suck they'll pick up the next tab.

The 2% chance that the bar gives him his money back doesn't make the awkward call where he makes a fool of himself worth it.

Do nothing

They definitely did more than 20% and/or added a bunch of stuff to my tab

Same lineup for both is a truly balls out move and not necessarily incorrect given it doesn't all pay out this week. The top 10 move onto a round in the divisional round of the playoffs and points from this week rollover. Would be great to have the top 2 lineups then just play all the high ownership guys across two lineups to block on a 4 game slate.

Any bar manager will work with you.

Sneaking drinks onto a tab while pocketing the cash is a common scam and most dopes behind a bar get greedy to the point where customers notice.

No bar manager wants to explain to the owner/corporate why they had thirty chargebacks last month. It'd cost them their job. It should take about twenty seconds of conversation with a manager to tell if this is the issue.

Any FACKers with experience in child psychology, specifically how young (2-5ish) children cope with divorce - shoot me a PM plz.

My girlfriend's (6 months) three year-old has suddenly turned against me ("I don't want you here" "Go home" "You hurt me") the last two days after we had been getting along phenomenally and doing fun stuff and the like the entire time we've been together.

It's really ****ty and we're obviously just worried most about the kid being okay and doing best for him but it's been a pretty interesting/frustrating two days for us and neither of us are sure on the best way to proceed.

As a thirty year-old that's pretty hard to do these days tho.

eta: this is obviously a joke and I have no issues with kids despite never wanting one of my own

There is no reason you can't find yourself a nice mid-mileage 24 year-old before they get really sexually self-destructive.

It should be easier now that ever before.

There's a multitude of reasons for that. Mainly I don't really like going out or socializing with randoms in general. Add that to the fact I'm short, kinda have a beer belly, and balding and it's safe to say my days of pulling 20-25 year olds are gone.

I'm completely happy in this relationship anyway.

Tim,

Shave your head, lose 15 pounds, and sign up for Match.com

Seriously, don't date a woman with kids. You may not be able to pull hot 24 ass but the 28-30yos are starting to see their friends get married and have kids. It's fishing with dynamite as long as you're not completely hideous and poor.
