A Real Whiz At Poker (rimshot)
-
Here's how much journalism has changed in the last decade: This is a post on the crime blotter blog of a major American newspaper describing a guy who peed in a casino, and it reads, "An unknown man not only pissed away his money at an area casino, he also pissed his way out of the casino, according to police." So they made the obvious joke, but used a term that, not too long ago, no legitimate journalism source would have allowed into print. Needless to say, I'm delighted. It's how people really speak. Anyway, the guy was playing poker, then kicked over a marble garbage can and peed in a planter in the lobby. He managed to get away; if that was Vegas, there's no way he'd have made it out before being grabbed by security and taken to a "special room" someplace deep in the bowels of the casino.
