Wanna Laugh Your Ass Off

[Stevendsmith]

If you've ever been in a casino (especially in Reno, Nevada), this essay by the brilliant Mark Morford is gonna kill you. I'm near tears.

1. On the contrary...

This made me sad. I think I would have been happier knowing that such a place doesn't exist. :) Maybe, I'm not seeing the humor in it since I've only been to Vegas once (drove my mom, aunt, and aunt's great grandkids there from Wichita, KS), and I quickly boarded a flight to Seattle to visit a friend.

2. actually -- he sounds kinda snooty!

Not that I'm a big fan of Reno -- or Vegas -- but because I am NOT I don't go there, prefering the Grand Canyon. Mark seems to be wandering arond Reno looking for thigns to mock. If the old fopls wanna play BINGO, more power to 'em. It's not for me to say they're being tacky. Likewise, it's not for them to mock me because they think the great outdoors is a big snore.

To each their own. Some folks truly liek Pizza Hut. others can't afford much better. Others don't know the difference. Mark's the first one to bellow when right-wingers mock SF. Look like he's doing the same with middle-class vacationeers.
