I wasn’t going to, I figured t hat by the time I got around to it that someone would’ve won.

Promised a buddy I’d buy him a Viper and then I’d go disappear in the mountains for a few years until everyone forgets about me. Then I will come down and get a house at the Thermal Club. I also like the idea of trying to DD a Chiron so maybe I’d try that for a little while.

$2 for any chance at a large portion of $1,600,000,000 is a good deal.

I don’t know why you wasted your money. Obviously I’m going to win.

I mean if I can make Kimi won a race just by wearing a t-shirt I sure as hell can win a few million by buying a piece of paper.

Shouldn’t it be renamed to Mega Billions now?

My odds of winning are only slightly worse than yours. =)

if I win a billions, do I gotta buy every opponaut a miata?

At worst it was a few bucks and some fun dreaming.

I think buying 20 or so and renting out a track for a month would do just fine. Let everyone come through when they find the time.

it would be amusing to just fuel oppositelock’s insane craigslist window shopping. people post to oppo “hey I want this!” , then the mega millions winner just buys it and trucks it to their house.

I have no idea how the big lotteries work, since I’ve only ever played scratch-offs, but I got a good chuckle in Tennessee this weekend when I saw the billboard pegged at $999 MILLION

Seriously, though — is this the one where all the old ladies stand at the little “ voting booth” thing in the grocery store and spend a half an hour playing all their grandkids’ birthdates? Or has it evolved into picking like 20 numbers in a row?

I just went to the 7/11 and said that I wanted $10 worth of tickets and the cashier printed it right on the spot. I’m sure I won’t win but there is certainly some fun in playing.

You’re right, I should have bought a 6-pack instead..

Do you have to fill out the Scantron form or just tell the clerk your numbers? I’m totally regretting not buying a few while I was in Chattanooga. Now I’m back home, 2 hours deep into No Lottery ville

Mr. FiSTer of Team FiST Fetish > Ash78, voting early and often
10/22/2018 at 17:28

I didn’t fill anything out and I didn’t pick my numbers, I figured that I’ve got the same chance on random numbers as any I could come up with.

I think a competition would definitely be in order. Most batshit build gets funded.

Or is it a one per person deal?

Or at least buy me one. Fuck everyone else

You only have to fill out a form if you want to choose your numbers. Otherwise it’s a 5 second transaction.

I don’t play very often, but when I do, I just chuck some dollars on the counter and ask for tickets. I don’t get the people who pick numbers, like birthdays, anniversaries , etc.

It’s completely random anyway, might as well get out of there as soon as possible with my lottery tickets. cheap beer, and cigarettes. I mean, lottery ticket, Cl iff Bar, and low fat chips. Sigh - I’m such a suburban Dad......

Yeah, I found $10 in a kitchen drawer yesterday and bought a few this morning when I stopped for gas. I’m sure no jackpot is in my future, but you never know.

Only if you buy a racetrack for us to drive them on.

I bought one, if I win I’m moving out and still finishing college.

Mr. FiSTer of Team FiST Fetish > Captain of the Enterprise
10/22/2018 at 19:19

I don’t think I’d finish college, my heart wouldn’t be in it if I was making $45,000,000 a year.

nermal > Mr. FiSTer of Team FiST Fetish

I’m buying $10 for each of the big ones this week.

Should I win, I’m shaving my head, getting a disguise and a new phone #, and moving away in the middle of the night without telling anybody. Most lottery winners are miserable due to social pressure from “friends” and family, so I’ll fix that by completely ghosting all of them.

If you see somebody wearing this and driving a Bentley or Rolls, make sure you wave.

Kinja'd!!!

I know, I'd collect that check and bounce for awhile. I'd probably hop on the first plane out of the US and hole up in a nice hotel in the south of France. The Verdon Gorge looks beautiful.

There were three ACR vipers in the run group I ran in at the track yesterday. It was unfair how fast they were compared to my Miata lol.

They'll make most cars feel slow, that tour of tracks they did was insane.

I’ve put in way to much work to stop now. I’m stopping working while going to college and moving out and close to campus instead of commuting an hour each way from home.

Mr. FiSTer of Team FiST Fetish > Captain of the Enterprise
10/23/2018 at 14:10

I also commute an hour to school, shit sucks. And more power to you if you could focus in class with a P1 GTR in the parking garage.
