I've seen this before, and even when I first saw it, threw up some red flags about it being real. Still funny tho

Lived it before. Casinos exist to fuck with your head. What's been illuminating for me is the P2W video games that adopt so many of the casino strategies to goad people into constantly feeding money into the machine. Once you start picking up on the queues and triggers coming off your cell phone, you can't unsee it when you're standing on the floor of the Bellagio.

It’s fucked how normalised it is for betting and gambling to advertised.

Yeah, most predatory apps are almost like cheap ripoffs of refined system casinos got down to a science.

Quitting an addiction is so simple, I've quit 100 times.

Quitters always quit before they hit the jackpot. Respect the hustle! Sell the wife, sell the kids.

It's kind of nice that some things have carried over from red-it, like the same memes popping up repeatedly, and people in the comments (me) complaining about it.

My partner and half his family have this gambling bug. You can see it in their eyes. You can see it when they win (not that often.) You see it in the veiled "next time we will win" excuses when they lose (most of the time.) I am glad I don't have ....this vice.
