LOL! Yup.
I went gambling ONCE, with my grandparents who loved to go to Foxwoods. Played the slots, lost 20 bucks in a few minutes and got ZERO frisson from it.
Am like "People get a charge from this..?" as I was sitting there watching the others in the aisle poke the spin button on the machines they were playing, like they were robots..
I had more fun the rest of the afternoon playing video games in the arcade. It took me a LOT longer to go through 20 bucks there.
