  • I’m just pointing out that within the constructs of the predominant Christian mythologies… Johnny’s fucked himself over unless he recognizes he’s being a shit and atones for it.

    Whether you assign any validity to the underlying dogma is an individual choice. People have a tendency to overlook logical inconsistencies in their faith frameworks, in any case.


  • There’s a subtext that you guys are missing. The devil wins whether he says Johnny won or lost.

    • If the devil wins, he gets Johnny’s soul per the terms of the bet.
    • If Johnny wins, the devil gets Johnny’s soul because he’s committing multiple deadly sins purely by boasting and challenging the devil for a golden fiddle: pride, greed, vanity.

    If he deems Johnny the winner, Johnny is less likely to challenge the decision, and he’s also more likely to continue committing the sins of pride and vanity (by boasting of his victory over the Devil Himself).

    Johnny’s only chance to avoid his fate (per most strains of the Christian faith) is to acknowledge and repent/confess/absolve his sins by seeking divine mercy. The devil knows this is unlikely.

    Johnny lost as soon as he uttered his first line.


  • What’s worse is the fact that 85% of those exorbitant bills are either substantial overcharging to game the insurance system, or costs associated with paying entire departments of people at the provider whose job is to figure out how to get insurance to pay them for procedures.

    Our oppressive healthcare costs are entirely the fault of the private insurance industry, and the corrupt politicians who accept bribes to keep it that way.

    Depends on whether she raises her head.

    As pictured:

    • Depending on the ammunition, her ass jiggles either sightly or substantially
    • Her hat is probably displaced
    • She wishes she had doubled up on hearing protection

    Lots of things could go wrong here but him pulling the trigger from this position is relatively tame. Stupid as fuck, but tame.

    She will feel no effect from the barrel heating up as the other commenter said, for two reasons.

    First, one shot doesn’t really do much to the barrel temperature - you’d need multiple shots in relatively rapid succession (i.e. several within a few minutes) for the barrel to start getting uncomfortably warm.

    Second, the barrel isn’t resting on her gluteal cleft; the receiver is. This part of the rifle is designed to be held.
