Well, once you understand that the bet is a “losing proposition”, you are free then to enjoy the “thrill”.
You know, people will pay $5 to step into a batting cage and hit a ball. They will never get that money back. But they might get to hit a baseball a few times, and if they enjoy it, that is money well spent.
A lot of people will play the lottery, because it will be “fun” to pick a number, and watch to see if that number wins. So they are paying for the enjoyment.
That shouldn’t be a buzzkill.
Took my girl to see a movie this afternoon...I'd heard it was good. A comedy I was told.
So here we are sitting in this movie house watching "Birdman"...kept waiting for the humor. This movie was pure TORTURE!~! And we walked out....
Now THAT was a buzz kill!!
LOL!!!
