As someone who lives at a city of casinos, I can tell y'all that I have no love for them. It's quite the depressing scene inside a casino believe it or not. People spend all of their pay checks and pension gambling while breathing in cigarette smoke

I don't need to live near one to realise that. Went to visit Vegas some 10 years ago and spent one of those days just walking from casino to casino, seeing those slot machine zombies depressed the fuck out of me real fast.

It’s odd how something as apparently exciting and delightful as gambling happens in giant buildings where not a single person is ever smiling.
