The one thing that going to a real casino taught me is that, despite what Hollywood would have us believe, casinos are not full of impeccably dressed classy people, but very old retirees that look like they only have a few years left to live, and disheveled men who look less well dressed than me in my PJs at home, who are gambling away large sums of money in a fit of anxiety and addiction.

Really depressing crap.

You should add /s to the end otherwise people will think you are serious.

I think if anyone could belive i was serious they wouldn't accept any new information like a /s as it doesn't align with their world view.

[–] Couldbealeotard@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wait, I thought /s stood for "serious"

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 1 points 11 months ago

That's only on Reddit. Here it means the opposite.
