philbey Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I posted what was grinding my gears, Jono replied and as far as I could tell we were all talking about what was grinding my gears. Chill out dude. The subforum is called off topic... As in, off the topic of cars.. This thread has a particular topic. You blokes posted 20+ one liners that had nothing to do with WGMG, I read back through them before I killed them. "I'll send you a text tonight" is hardly relevant to the other forum members. This isn't Facebook, it's a moderated forum. Please Respect the other users and stay on topic. Simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irokin Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 If you want to have a huge chatty thread the PM system can make one for you. I can't remember how many people you can invite but I think it's about 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's_AUDM_Yo Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Your more likely to die then win lotto. Thus why I will never be buying a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orangeLJ Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 hey, for the $3 a week it costs me to be in the work syndicate, its worth it. 10 of us in the syndicate, have won a few little amounts in the last 6 months we have been going. That said, I couldnt justify $30 a week to buy a ticket on my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The probability of dying is 1, is it not? That's why Jono and I found it funny, of course you're more likely to die than to win the Lotto.

This article has a nice table: http://www.livescien...odds-dying.html My favorite is Asteroid Impact: 1-in-200,000 Too much time on your hands Ben :P The exact opposite in fact. Just I've got an assignment due so... procrastination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
