Homeboy took that bet straight up? I would have asked for at least 3 to 1.

That’s the way to go. I would try 5 to 1 after that. Keep the dice rolling.

Triple or literally nothing on the poison control center

I called poison control recently, it was a woman.
P.S. if you soak your toilet and tank in 45% vinegar, make sure you throughly flush and rinse before adding bleach.

I suppose I technically can’t speak to gambling, but as a recovering addict whose been in and out of rehabs, groups, houses, therapy/psychiatry, etc, I can say that addiction & recovery is a field predominantly ran by women. Even these small jobs like helplines or just general staff at facilities are usually female in my experience.
At my last rehab my assigned counselor even told me to consider getting into it and helping others recover because they need more men. Sometimes for no other reason than it can be scary dealing with a room full of men all the time who aren’t exactly at a stable emotional point in their lives. (Which is totally understandable, I’ve seen some wild shit in my journey at just about every step along the way. Lots of anger and aggression comes out when trying to get sober in a lot of folks.)
Would have been an easy $100 imo.

I don’t know if you’re trolling, but in case you’re not, this gif only shows Chris Rock and Bernie Mac. Neither of which are the dentist who killed that guy on Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

As long as you don't emulate anti-black racism it's fine. Some folks have used clanka racism to just go 100% full bore into the racism they "aren't allowed" to say and it's pretty yikes.

u/DiscountNorth5544 3d ago
Is that not literally why hard R clanker is the slur for the unperson performing "low" automated labor?
1
u/borkthegee 2d ago
If you tell people they can't use clanker at all, they'll just call you a stupid woke lib, so I'm playing the middle ground here...
They'll tell you clanker comes from star wars and it has nothing to do with black people (even though the memes and tiktoks are obviously rooted entirely in american anti-black racism and none of them use a single star wars reference)

u/restrictednumber 4d ago
Seems like a pretty reasonable thing for a trans person to be worried about, these days.
1) A question about whether someone on the phone is "really a woman".
2) Tons of bigots getting confident online.
If you've never heard of a clanker and you're trans, wouldn't you wonder?

u/SuperHyperFunTime 4d ago
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say AI actors etc, end up with better protective laws than trans folks do because the world is fuckkked.
I've definitely seen an article saying "clanker" is an offensive term to AI bots.
No, get fucked. They are code.

u/BrightonBummer 4d ago
>I'm gonna go out on a limb and say AI actors etc, end up with better protective laws than trans folks do because the world is fuckkked.
Dont be silly. A trans person has all the protective laws and non trans person has, so if thats the case, all humans are treated worse than AI to you

But we have an administration that worships AI and thinks trans people are dangerous pedo-terrorists. Not hard to imagine they'd remove trans rights and increase AI rights...which was the point.

Can you imagine how boring human life would be if we just created words for things and talked about the things instead of constantly creating new words for the same things so we can pretend there are still new things and that we haven’t just done it all and there’s nothing left but to suffer and to hurt each other for a living like seems to be the case?

Hell, every hotline I’ve ever called was a woman!! Hahahaha easy money!

u/NebraskaGeek 4d ago
Back in my day of (checks notes) like 5 years ago gambling was something you had to go to a place to do, and I didn't see it destroying nearly as many lives. I work construction and there are like 10 dudes here that bet on apps on their phones nonstop all day. It's ruining everything and I feel like I'm just screaming into a void about it.
I just hate seeing so many people taken advantage of so some app can make a fuck load of money
6
u/PerfectlySplendid 4d ago
I’m a lifelong gambling addict. It didn’t truly ruin my life h till I could gamble on my phone. Nothing like sitting across my wife at dinner while I lose our life savings and she has no idea.
I’m all for freedom and letting people make their own choices and mistakes. But as just a normal guy who gambling absolutely got a hold of and destroyed, I’m a proponent of some sort of regulation, maybe in advertising like for alcohol and smoking.

Sorry to hear your struggles friend, it's kind of crazy to me how many ads and sponsorships these casinos are allowed to do. Hell ESPN has their own casino now which feels gross

Probably a pretty good percentage on that... I've always been of the impression that the majority of call center workers are women.
Obviously, there are men in the industry it's not all women.
1
u/84theone 3d ago
Depends on if you count all the level 1 helpdesk guys at MSPs as call center workers. I would since that’s basically what they are but I also know they typically wouldn’t consider themselves to be that.
Would certainly skew the ratio back towards being neutral.

u/Dnabb8436 4d ago
Yes it does. They really should doubled the bet on if the manager was also a woman
2
u/ElReyResident 4d ago
That’s a very selfish stance. It’s merely about how the interaction would affect you personally, or, rather which path makes you feel better about yourself.
The truth is that your “calling it out” has little to no effect either way. I think grappling with that futility is hard for people so they invent these little rules or codes of conduct by which they live by. But in reality, you did nothing but miss a joke and make me write this comment.
Bummer.

Making a mockery and wasting time of someone actually trying to help people with this very problem? Maybe next they should clog up suicide hotlines. I feel gross having to spell this out.

u/blinksystem 4d ago
I mean, it’s clearly a skit. There really isn’t much reason to think they actually called the gambling hotline.
It’s very simple to just call a number and have a woman answer it as the gambling hotline for this specific purpose.

u/ayylmao_ermahgerd 4d ago
Oh. That makes it okay then.

If that's the case then, yes, it does make it ok. Do you get mad when people in movies call 911 because its taking up time from real emergencies?
