Man if you’ve been in one at like 6:30 - 7:00 AM you will see people who just lost everything gambling all night every time. Even the dealers look pained by dealing yet another hand. It’s savage.

Nah not me. The biggest I ever gambled was 20 Euro on a football game. Bet against my country; hey they were losing big (4-1) and the odds were still really high for them to lose even bigger, so I bet they'd lose 5-2. They did. The Irish team bought me my new fridge, go raibh mhath agaibh. I felt bad, but hey, I got a new fridge. :)

That’s good. I have the worst personality for it. Addictive personality and I’m great at convincing myself I’m clever enough to beat the house.

I will never be able to beat the house no matter how much I practice and study.

It’s one of those things I can’t **** with. I cannot gamble. Not even friendly money bets with friends. I just get to into it. Winning a bet gets me so ****ing high. Higher than cocaine.

What's the most you've ever lost on a coin toss?

As dramatically sound as that scene is I can't take it seriously cause at some point any given gas station attendent would get pissed and tell that guy to **** off. It just feels like I'm watching a scene where the screenwriter is making sure the attendent doesn't ruin their bombass scene by acting like a normal person.

The technique and the time it takes to kill prey varies greatly depending on the type of raptor and the size of the prey.

Hawks and other members of the Accipitridae family, (eagles, harriers, kites), use their talons to catch and subdue struggling prey, rather than to kill it quickly.

They'll sometimes squeeze the animal to the point of suffocation if it's small enough; but with bigger prey (like your rabbit) they land on top of it and stay on top of it until they've got it under control to avoid injuries or escape. They use their beaks to pluck fur or feathers from the animal, causing further trauma. Once they've done this, they'll begin to eat it while it's, however briefly, still alive.

The hawk in your yard was probably just starting the process of subduing the rabbit when you startled it.

Hawks have huge talons on their first and second toes. They use them to tear prey open while it holds on with the other shorter talons.
