Yeah, this is why I'm reluctant to order any nice liquor at a restaurant. You look like a dick if you're like "hey, can you bring out the bottle and pour me another, because this tastes like kentucky tavern."

Ok now that I'm finally done reading this whole thread i can post:

-Not every pro poker player is on TV making millions (although maybe someday )
-if a pro (or someone you suspect is one) raises all in at a cash game he is 99% positive he has you beat. There are extremely rare exceptions to this
-Don't talk to a pro while you're in the hand with him.
-If you think poker is all luck, go play slots. No intelligent gambler wastes money on house games.
-Poker isn't always glamorous, it is hard work to become a disciplined good player and very stressful. Poker gets boring too
-EVERYONE that plays on a regular basis thinks they're good at poker
-I don't want to hear about your poker stories/bad beats, i've heard a million of them, they are pretty much all boring. Most of the time i'm just listening enough to feign empathy

I agree with pretty much everything you posted. I just play on occasion but I assure you that:
-No one cares about your bad beat/suck out stories. They happen to everyone. Suck it up and move on.
-Poker gets really boring. I only have the mental capacity to play for like 5 hours straight then I start making bad decisions and lose all my money.
-A good player beats a bad player 75% of the time. Try to pick on players weaker than you.

ninjas ... ok, we get it. it's a generalization; a stereotype. i let it go earlier in hopes we'd get away from that but i see it still being bantered about.

i tip and ya don't get any more "ninja" than me. hell, i've tipped when i couldn't afford to tip.

stop with the ninja crap if you don't mind. believe it or not there may be some "ninjas" lurking about the forum who don't appreciate you euphemism. thanks.

LOL. Ninjas...

All black.

That's clever as hell.

But yeah, I think you guys should probably cut that out if you want to keep your accounts.

When i was younger I worked in place that made candy.

I've seen someone cut their finger, and still spread candy on a tray. I've seen people mixing ingredients while it was coated all over their arm hair, and then roll it off into the mix. Also the types of people you know aren't the most savory of individuals doing it.
