Jupiter has aligned with Saturn and Aquarius has had an accident on Libra. From these signs the stars tell me that today you will doubt the stars today, a very ill omen. Wear yellow socks.

Now Xolotl may not be the prettiest mutt but, with a little love, I'm sure he'd make a lovely family pet.

Why not approach that demon-dog and offer him a biscuit?

I think it'd be an interesting job, especially if this whole Ranger thing doesn't work out for me in the long term.

Odd thing ive noticed whilst working at ladbrokes, near all the women who have placed bets in the stores ive worked have exclusively put them on the lotto or bingo. I think ive seen like two women who have placed bets on a football coupon or a horse or dog. Wonder why that is.



Also side tangent Some people who complain about body shaming are absolutely fucking hypocrites.

They will blow a gasket if you say anything negative about a womans body but will spend all day calling trump a fat small handed small dick walking carrot.

Ah it depends where you are, I'm sure. Grew up in Clonmel down south, as a result the greyhound and horse tracks get quite a bit of my paycheck if there's a race on when I'm visiting home.

But then it's Paddy Power I'd go to, of course. Right now all the fun money is on just how fucked Britain is right now, exactly.

Dunno about other countries but in Belgium the Lotto has really become a sad affair. In the past people bought tickets and scratched or whatever, but nowadays you see middle-aged women go to a kioskn and buy two tickets, which prompts the girl behind the register to scan two tickets into a lottery machine that immediately shows her if she's won.

Woman had to pay after getting her 1,5 euro winnings discounted from the ticket price.

Somehow I find that a little sad.

Most people who do the lotto in my experience so far over the last few months usually do about 3-5 lotto slips at the same time. Seen a few do around 10 or so, its a bit mental. Though the saddest things ive seen are some of the people who use the FOBT machines, one guy yesterday won 1300 on one of them after about an hour or two, then went back on the machine for like another 5 hours right up until closing and left winning 800. No idea how much he put into that thing in total but when i was clearing the money out of it at close up it had easily near 5 times the money in it as the other two.
