"responsible" and "irresponsible" are words other people use to judge decisions that aren't theirs.

Some people wonder how I can do something as 'irresponsbile' as playing poker for a living.
I don't even know if I'm going to make any money at all on a given day/week.
Other people think I'm obnoxiously over-responsible and no fun at all. Afterall, I don't drink and drive...and I don't have any interest at all to throw down $100 chips at the blackjack table or play at limits well above my bankroll.
Somebody tells me of their progressive blackjack betting scheme that netter them $5000 in one night by just doubling-up their bets at the right times...and I tell them that that is awfully dangerous and to be careful and they are confused that I'm not on the same page as them regarding how cool and easy it is to make money at gambling.
