First line in my will is...my 1000 chip tournament set of Paulson Classics goes to my son Jake with the stipulation that it can never be sold.

Sound like an invalid clause that violates the rule against perpetuities....

I believe PA is one of the states that allows perpetuities. There are exceptions, but then it becomes a whole tangled mess of legal mumbo-jumbo.

What do you have if you have a room full of lawyers up to their necks in shit?
















Not enough shit!

 

[pltrgyst]

When a friend asks how many playable sets you have, and you have to think about it, and you're pretty sure you must have missed some anyway.

Isn't that pretty much everyone with over, say, 200 posts?

The Rule Against Perpetuities is a common law rule. You can't alienate property for longer than a life in being +18 years. But sure, state law could override common law.

Seems like a mess if you would allow it. The RAP was an attempt to clean up a messy situation.

That's not actually the first line in my will...

You might be a chip-a-holic when you are looking at a bird out the window, and exclaim, "I love the edge-spots on that one!"

 

[Beakertwang]

You might be a chipaholic when you open the Letgo app to look for poker chips, and your first thought is “hey—trimoon!”

You might be a chip-a-holic when you've added edge spots to birds on a photo.

Or when you start describing said bird by their chip color.

When you have a shuffle stack for driving For that matter, knowing what a shuffle stack is.

You might be a chip-a-holic if you have asked your wife about painting edge spots on the robot vaccume named Don.

When you search online classified ads and see a pict of a box of chips and wonder what kind of chips/inlay they are?...

but then zoom into the photo and realize they are rolls of paper for the credit card machine that is actually being sold. Duh, I click on the ad instead of reading the title of the post first.

Wait... what...?

When you drive around town looking for the mailman cause you can’t wait until he delivers your chips.

...when you spend hours, losing sleep, trying to come up with a witty and clever and funny "You know you're a chip-a-holic" post but then get distracted by an alert that there is a new listing in the classifieds. I'll be right back...

When the casino scene in a movie features a hot brunette bending over the table and showing way too much cleavage, and you blurt out "Look at those spots! I'd kill to get my hands on that rack!"

And you aren't talking about the boobs.

Upon hearing someone say "Nice Rack" your immediate response is "39 or 43mm"?

You laugh, but when my CPC's were due to arrive, Mrs Zombie called the post office first thing in the morning to have them take it off the truck, because picking it up in person would be faster.

Sitting in traffic, wondering when my Casino Aztar Evansville $1's will arrive.

Pretty soon the USPS is going to have a mass restraining order on many of us for stalking the Post Office. (ahem...@AfterTheFact)

Glad im not the only one!

 

[Zix117]

Wish I had enough cool chips to do any of these things. Instead I just spend hours getting sucked into the rabbit hole of poker chip videos on YouTube.

 

[WedgeRock]

I went to wash out my coffee cup and noticed the office uses Dawn dish soap... Wonder if they also have a salad spinner/collander somewhere...

When Jim's @TheChipRoom new sale thread comes up, and your wife catches you looking at it, and she starts bitching, why do you need more chips ?

When this just happened...

Well, it does seem a waste to have empty space in a chip box!
