    The punishment of others is just a byproduct of my self-obsessed drivel – it’s not an objective.

    So, if I’m a sadist, I’m an accidental – or incidental – one.

    My pleasure is far more important than other people’s pain.

    The Incidental Sadist- sounds like a book you and gamble could work upon together.

    “Je publie, donc je suis.”

    It’s good to make yourself understood.

    As for The Incidental Sadist – I certainly like the title

    Well spotted, Drone. 👍

    Although you forgot to use a full stop at the end of your sentence. 😜

    I’m back in the game, thought what better way to spend Januarys student loan than a few cheltenham ante post bets and stocks! Bought some Drafkings (DKNG) stock again last monday, think I got lucky with the timing as it was up 19% last week – aftertiming I know :bye:

    I see more and more Draftkings and sports betting advertising on US sports and US sports talk shows every month, that sector is only going to continue to grow imo especially in the coming years once all the current teenagers – who are currently being conditioned/normalised to the idea of sports betting come of legal age.

    Ben the stock market is flying just now but as someone who puts £100 in shares every month always play a long game , mine is to top up my pension so I take few risks

    Maybe there are some good things waiting around the corner for you Ben – that having been said – I wouldn’t know really as I don’t go around corners much.

    The more I go through Gamble the more I realise life is a real battle of attrition, not really a matter of can you avoid the crap getting slung your way, but can you wipe that crap off your face with a wet wipe and still manage hold a smile.

    I don’t generally do wet wipes Ben – but all power to your elbow if you can. Personally my thoughts are, that unless you kill a few million people you’ll never be remembered by no-one, and anyway, who cares anyway, and being remembered well it’s not really my bag as I said to one rather shocked lady customer, as I tried to sell her a freezer compartment when they were like new born babys. I lost that sale but laughed all the way home with her thinking I’d convinced her God was an american. It doesn’t really matter if you make the grade or are successful in life – no-one really cares no-one remembers.
    It’s a game really – snakes and ladders – up and down and a few skeletons in the cupboard. I sleep terribly well vertically or horizontally, but wouldn’t care much if I didn’t. It’s not always a game, if you are off the damned board, but even then – shake a leg and get back on. Have a laugh and have a good ride. If not make do – Mr Micawber lived a reasonably happy life and with the very positive feeling that something would eventually turn up.

    ” Mr Micawber lived a reasonably happy life and with the very positive feeling that something would eventually turn up.”

    I like this a lot! On the topic of positivity I’ve leveraged long on Draftkings stock and leveraged short on Peleton stock, just opened the positions before market closed.

    Not crazy money so it’s no great risk but something to keep me entertained tonight/tomorrow!

    Gamble is the guy at your local , you know the one , he,s there everyday , always dishing out advice , most of it relevant and useful ….. It’s just a shame there’s always a whiff of urine and he,s unconscious in the corner by 8 o’clock …

    The price of a bucket of unusual with a soak attached – well it’s free and not to be sniffed at.
    Ground is quite funny I have enjoyed consecrating him.
