This is a question Amazing displays of ignorance

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

Why is it so hard to win playing slot machines in a casino?
Is it hard to win because the odds are stacked against you? Surprisingly, the answer is no, according to a friend. The odds of becoming a millionaire are actually in your favor, but there are hidden mysteries about the game you may not appreciate.

For every slot machine on the casino floor, there is a doppelganger slot machine hidden above in the ceiling, connected to your machine and manned by a casino employee, whose minimum-wage job depends on fighting every one of your ninja spins. It's hard to beat that kind of system!

I like this explanation because it makes it appear like every casino operates like something out of Terry Gilliam's "Brazil".
