Read a random definition: quod partitio fiat

A quick definition of game:

A game can mean two things. First, it can refer to wild animals and birds that people hunt for food or sport, but only with a license. Second, it can refer to a contest that people play for fun or a prize, where the outcome depends on their skill, strength, or luck. Some games are based on chance, which means the result is determined by luck, while others are based on skill, which means the player's knowledge or ability determines the outcome. Some games involve gambling, which means playing for a stake, and some are illegal in certain states.

A more thorough explanation:

Game refers to wild animals and birds that are hunted for food or sport, especially those that require a hunting license. It can also refer to a contest played for amusement or a prize, where the outcome depends on the skill, strength, or luck of the players. A game of chance is one where the outcome is determined by luck rather than skill, while a game of skill is one where the outcome is determined by a player's superior knowledge or ability, not chance. A percentage game is a game of chance where the house collects a percentage of the wagers made or the sums won.

  • John went hunting for deer, which is a type of game.
  • The Super Bowl is a game played for a prize and requires skill and strength from the players.
  • Slot machines are an example of a game of chance, where the outcome is determined by luck.
  • Chess is a game of skill, where the outcome is determined by a player's knowledge and ability.
  • A casino's roulette table is a percentage game, where the house collects a percentage of the bets made by players.

These examples illustrate the different meanings of the term "game". The first example shows how "game" can refer to animals hunted for food or sport. The second example shows how "game" can refer to a contest played for a prize. The third and fourth examples show the difference between a game of chance and a game of skill. The fifth example shows how a percentage game works in a casino setting.

Feeling like sad drinking tonight, wife accidentally tossed out my truck keys and those are expensive as fuck to replace. The crappiest part is that the key chain had the "remove before flight" tab from my first aircraft's rocket pods overseas from 6 years ago. Then find out people fucked around and back dated reports at work making me look like a shit bag so I am working later tonight and missing range time which is my weekly relax/me time. Add in my sleep meds stopped working, so I am thinking vodka (so I stay skinny and hot) and pizza by the fireplace kind of friday.

Other failed dates
babycat
14:55
That’ll do it
Question, how many of u would sleep on first date
babycat
14:57
honestly my answer is it depends
babycat
14:57
there has to be a very specific vibe to make me want to do that. not like a regular date
babycat
14:59
and sometimes you want to and you still don’t do ir
babycat
14:59
it
babycat
15:00
but I don’t use dating apps so all my first dates are with people I’ve already met in some context, which it sounds like is your situation too
Dkk
15:00
I could never imagine myself doing that on a first date.
Dkk
15:01
@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: hope things get better
babycat
15:01
@Dkk: what if it’s someone you’ve known for a long time but never dated?
Dkk
15:03
Maybe but things would have to go like perfectly. I could not imagine them going perfectly.
15:04
Sleeping on the first date just isn't my style, idk. I take things painfully slowly and much prefer to befriend and really get to know a girl first before doing any of that
Ok another question, what do u tell the ppl u sleeping with already that ur going on dates
Dkk
15:05
The bigger issue is if I sleep with them will I have the emotional connection to finish cus it is harder for me to finish if I do not know the person.
