Oh, Reddit, you never cease to entertain. Some guy said in a thread that he'd eat a dick if a user got 400 gold ($1600 worth) on a post. The post got it, and the guy lived up to his word. Colour me impressed. THREAD HERE And he took video. All I can say is that he could have used some mustard. Anyway... FOCUS: Bets. What shit have you done for a bet? Has someone pissed you off by welshing on a bet? Are you the type to have lots of little bets going?
Focus: I once ate an entire milk carton in high school for $50. I did, I got it and I passed it the next day in my bowel movement.
I did the smoke a carton of cigarettes bet in one day with a friend. He tried smoking two at a time to suck them all down, failed miserably, hacked all night, and then tried to hide the rest of the carton to get out paying me the $200. We almost got into a fight, then he admitted he cheated and to this day has not paid me. I did the coke/pepsi challenge at work recently. Just $10 with one person, and a gentleman's bet with my other coworkers. Everyone was arguing with me, calling the taste difference night and day and claiming they could tell them apart just by smelling. Never got my ten dollars, and that fucker didn't do the full test. He failed twice, got it right the third time, and then refused to continue all the while refusing to admit that he just guessed right on his 50/50 shot on the third try. Another guy refused to do it again after guessing right the first time. One guy accused me of cheating, and only two admitted the taste differences they perceived had been differentiated based on the can rather than what that shit exactly tastes like, which is exactly the same. I generally don't do many bets, because I know I will pay up if I lose, but there's too good a chance the person I am betting with will weasel their way out of it.
I never did coke/pepsi, but Ive done Miller Lite/Coors Light/Bud Light a couple of times at bars, and won shots every time. FOCUS: I used to do alot of bets with one of my friends. We bet on a college hockey game that resulted in him having to sing Go Cubs Go whenever we noticed the Cubs were winning or had won (he's Reds fan and a Cubs hater). Another roommate lost a bet which required him to continue eating his weekly Thursday night pizza, but we were allowed to pick the toppings (within reason) for a month. The biggest was around a cruise we went on. The 3 of us were headed on a Caribbean cruise around the middle of March when we were 23 or so. The other friend (Deno) going with us had a bad habit of buying tons of shots at the bar, which was great for us. He'd get a little buzzed and happy and all of a sudden, a round of Patron shots would come flying out. So BW and I set up a bet for how many shots Deno would buy on the cruise. I believe the Over/Under was set at 32. 5 out of 7 nights, 3 shots for us and 3 people we met, plus an extra 2 tossed in to make BW feel better about the Under. I took the over. The stakes? Loser took a Viagra at a time of the winner's choosing. Well, we get on the cruise and Deno's gf, shortly before we left, had throw some fit about some shit, so he was in a weird mood and spent alot of time reading or keeping to himself. We met 3 college girls from the East Coast and everything really set up for the bet to sail over, but he wasn't drinking heavily and he certainly wasn't super festive. I believe the grand total for the trip was 8, bought in one swoop at Carlos and Charlies in San Juan. Delivery of the "punishment" was severely delayed. Surprisingly, Viagra wasn't easy to acquire for 20 something guys. But our old neighbors were a younger married couple and the wife was a doctor. She wouldn't illegally acquire drugs, because of ethics and such, but her Pfizer rep sent a sample pack of Viagra along with other samples to their apartment, as she was switching clinics, so it was fate. The pill was delivered with much fanfare in the middle of my birthday party, 16 months after the cruise. However, joke is on them. It doesn't produce spontaneous erections like people had led them to believe. And moreso, I ended up hooking up with a girl that night and performed like an absolute champ. Hurrahs all around.
About 22 years ago when I first started going to the bar a guy that have moved to Phoenix from Wyoming started hanging out with our group of losers, we didn't know we were losers because we thought we were badass cowboys who hung out in a country night club and wore hats and boots. We were neither badass or cowboys, we were poor 20 somethings who made bad decisions and spent all our money on booze and drugs. One night the guy from Wyoming and I decided that we were tough and we bet eachother $50 that if you put a cigarette between our arms we would not pull away, so we sat at a table and put our right forearms together and dropped a lit cigarette between them, there was not a chance I was going to pull away because I did not have $50 so after the first one had burned out another one was dropped in, the smell of burning flesh was not pleasant and after the 2nd cigarette burned out a draw was called and I had a wound that took 3 months to heal and I still have the scar.
I love to bet and I have a few friends that are similar. Notable bets: $500 with my housemate about being in Vegas on a certain date (we live in Aus); $400 on a game of table tennis; $400 on a coin flip; master bedroom/en suite for a year at no extra cost on a game of poker; $300 on a friend arriving on a certain lady's face; $100 on an engaged couple breaking up; 50 shots on a fighter from my gym winning; $100 on Oscar Pistorious and Zimmerman verdicts. My housemate bet $1000 on the outcome of two of our friends having a drunken wrestling match, and paid up when he lost. I've sung the Aladdin song A Whole New World in a packed bar for a sports et loss. An ex used to bet oral sex on mariokart games. Different ex bet anal on number of pieces of I'D required at video store. Mmmm, betting.
Strap on Uh, the first one I followed - I win, you go down on me; you win, I go down on you. But, the second one - did the loser give or receive? Bold.
Loser received. She lost. Incidentally, we broke up not long after but had a torturous on again off again thing going. I called the marker in while we were broken up. She was initially outraged, but my brilliant argument that 'a bet's a bet' actually worked. This was 8 years ago. For those playing at home, same girl I reconnected with who I then caught in my house mate's bed.
I was 7, my brother was 5. We bet our 11 year old babysitter $7.00 that he couldn't snort an entire Pixie Stick off the concrete behind our dad's shop. He did. His nose bled for about an hour. We lost $7.00. He never amounted to shit, so I guess we won in the end.
