You sound like you play cards every saturday with immortals and think you are one.
50/50 chance that...You are an immortal and your 50/50 concept is too.
I kinda doubt it.
When you get older, your politics, and attitude will change. Sorry, but it happens. I was once very much like you.
Then I got old. Not immortal.
I really hope you die young so you dont end up like me. We walk the same paths.



At first, I thought you just didn't like The 50/50™, which is certainly fine. But after reading this, I see that you don't get what it actually is. Which is fine as well, but you really oughtta read this thread again from the beginning and see if it clicks.

Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant, "If I live, I will kill you. If I die, you are forgiven." Such is the rule of honor.

Seriously, Betty. I can think of NO situation where The 50/50™ doesn't work. Feel free to argue or ask, because that further helps me to define the Law.

On the other hand, if it IS that you just don't like it, then I suppose it's hopeless. But you'll come around to see it. 50/50. :lol:

Nope, still works. Either 00 will hit, or it won't. Only two possible outcomes=50/50 every day, all day.

Tell your banker friend there's a 50/50 chance he won't get paid. It's too much fun arguing how stupid the concept is. It's true, no arguing against it but basing any decisions on it...is foolish. I'm willing to play the dumb-ass and argue just to see how much it upsets you. Can't you fucking see that?

I've heard that it's incredibly stupid to fuck around with a crazy man's head.

You can and will base every decision off it. You decision will either go the way you want or it won't, every time. You can take that to the bank, Jack!

That's like saying the theory of gravity or any of the laws of thermodynamics are dumb because you don't base any decisions on them.

Would the banker care about gravity? Does the guy at the roulette wheel give a fuck about the second law of thermodynamics? Nope. But that doesn't make any of the other laws of the universe any less valuable when used in the proper circumstance.

Perhaps you're just using the 50/50 in the wrong circumstance, as well. Not my fault. But it is my law. Hopefully they'll name it after me.

Missed a golden opportunity tonight, driving home from work I was following a car with plates "5050", couldn't get a picture, damn near followed them to their house trying to get one.
