Prop Bet: Sklansky Memorization Challenge (peripheral poker content)

[nate1729]

Oh, we've bet on plenty of things:

-How attractive a mutual friend's blind date would be

-How much a different mutual friend would appreciate the idea of a lip-reader transcribing manager/umpire arguments in real time

-How exasperated said friend's girlfriend would get when she found out we were betting on her boyfriend's baseball-argument-watching preferences

-Sports prop bets of all forms

-The sizes of tournament prize pools

And so on. And now we want to bet on some 2+2 memorization.

Rather than memorize the book, take a set amount of money, and after say 6 months, whoever has more cash gained from playing wins the bet.

Nate's a better player than me anyways, so this would be a bad bet...

Oh, BTW, what is "prose style"?

I am all for prop betting- heres a good one for you
Both of you memorize TS eliots' "the wasteland"- then read every work that he references in the poem. First one to read them all wins.

How about you memorize every wringle on each other's nutsacks?

[mason55]

give each other blow jobs, only this time when you do it whoever lasts the longest wins

[nate1729]

Sheesh. Or we could just have a David Foster Wallace Recitation Contest. You're thinking outside the box; I like that.

"Hey, jakethebake, what'd you do today?"

"Oh, I trolled some 2+2 threads and made fun of some guys that are trying to work out a prop bet. Get this: I implied that they're gay!"
