I'd hit my grandmother over the head for 500K. Sorry grandma, but it's true.

This would be (yet another) one of those moments where I realize that even with all of my misanthropy and fatalism and hopelessness and skepticism, I have STILL managed to give people way too much credit.

Let me just say that anyone who would actually hit their grandmother over the head for money need not respond.

Just go out and kill yourself instead, please. Believe me, God will love you more if you do.

I believe there are two sorts of people: those who would even consider cheating, and those who would not.

What about people who would consider cheating, think it over for a few minutes, and then decide against it. Do you think they are scumbags?

What if I hit my Grandma over the nead with a nerf baseball bat? That might only be worth 10k though. For 500k would it have to be a hard object????

No, I do not believe they are scumbags, merely susceptible to the lesser aspirations of human nature.

Your question does not diminish the fact that what I said is true--that there are TWO types of people; those who would consider it, and those who would not. I must admit to having a much higher regard for the latter species, but that is not to say that the former are "scumbags."

As for the actual cheating, yes, anyone who cheats at poker is a f*cking scumbag.

This is a very good question, and one that I had not considered before going on my rant.

Ok, uh, here goes:

You should not ever hit your grandma (or anyone's grandma) with anything, ever. It is inexcusable.

However, if you WERE to hit your grandma, it should definitely be with a nerf bat, and you should definitely videotape it, just for the priceless look on her face.

Make sure she doesn't see it coming!!

Good times, good times.

Why do you believe they are susceptible, even though they didn't succumb?

if someone could seriously club their grandmother in the head for 500k...then they surely could do it to a perfect stranger...this is much more scary than the "death threat" vince claims he fears in another thread here in WPT.

I think one can be susceptible to temptation, yet not susceptible to giving in to temptation.

Are you just messing with me, or what?
