I am pumping gas. Generic redneck couple rolls up at the pump diagonally from me. I see they are both smoking cigarettes through their windshield. She gets out on the passenger side. Still smoking and taking in the ambience of the traffic filled gas station in a spaced out gaze. He gets out. His cigarette a smoky nub attached to his knuckles. The two of them, smoking, pass in front of my car as I slam the gas cap shut and race to the ignition.

I think of him when the lottery hits high jackpots (like the $363M Mega Millions right now). I don't feel guilt about dropping $5 to spin the wheel. The lump sum would be enough to do whatever you wanted for the rest of your life (unless you're a moron or spend money you don't have á la Kanye).
I've got ideas man. (They just lack funding.)
As for people who drop $100 on five $20 scratch off tickets.. yeah I'm with you there.
I think my disdain for it comes from working in a shop when I was younger and saving for college.Every day I'd check the same peoples tickets and every day I would tell them they have won nothing and yet they kept buying them over and over again.

Why are they called the Mario Bros?
Am I to believe that Mario's name is Mario Mario?

It sounds like the same dangerously uncomfortable feeling that you get when you're swept by the jackass in the lane next to you at the indoor range. I no longer go to indoor ranges, too many jackasses.
Green Bay Packer "owners" who wear hats, t-shirts or license plates showing off the fact they "own" part of the Packers because they bought a share or two of the team. News flash: this doesn't make you an NFL owner. Can you fire the coach? Can you make a trade? Can you tell the GM who to pick? Then you're not an owner. You just gave money to your team for a worthless piece of paper. It doesn't make you Jerry Jones.
Well over the hill males who wear Affliction or Ed Hardy shirts in a desperate attempt to appear hip and connected to young people (see Jim Irsay mugshot).

We can probably expand that to "anyone" wearing those shirts if their goal is "hip and connected" since those shirts stopped being both of those things a long time ago :teehee:
If you just like the shirt.... that's one thing. But it a'int hip anymore.

I was hip, then they changed what hip was. Now I'm not.

I have yet to see anyone wearing those shirts that wasn't a giant feminine hygiene product and reeked of vinegar, meadow flowers and disappointment!!

Worse? Way overweight people wearing Nike sweatsuits...or even worser ( sic) spandex, where the split in the back is sucking in spandex like an enormous black hole sucking in planets.

If you watched the movie, you'd know that his name is Mario Mario.

Very true. It's just amazing to see superstars doing those sorts of commercials.
