If you buy the lottery anytime the Powerball is not featured on The Today Show or Good Morning America, you either are low class or are lazy, but probably both. However, if you don’t get at least a couple lotto tickets whenever the jackpot hits fuck you money, you are a squid. Why? Because you are probably someone who is cheap, judges others, and thinks they are above the lotto.

Yes, you are right in theory but not in practice. Spending money on the lotto is basically the same as flushing bills down the toilet, but it gives you something that money can’t buy. From the time you buy a lotto ticket until the time you see you didn’t win, you get to think of all the things you would do/buy if you won and became a gazillionaire. And the ability to do that twice or three times a year is worth the cost of admission.

P.S: It has to be a proven fact that nobody ever in a major metropolitan city has ever won the Lotto.
