I want out of my poker group........what do I say??
This group has been together in some form or other for the last 15 years. We first started bowling and now group has evolved into a poker club. I'm just getting tired of meeting every month, how do I get out of it??

1. Multiple possibilities
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 01:53 PM by JVS
1)Say "I don't like hanging out with you, fuck off!"

2)Say "I am interested in committing some adultery, and the monthly meetings of this group take valuable time that I could be spending in the throes of passion in an Econolodge. To keep everything on the DL, pretend I'm still here and I'll send $10 each month to represent my losses."

3) Do not say anything, but drink heavily at the next meeting and behave in such a way as to have them say #1 to you.

2. Get into a fight over politics and religion

URGENT yet easy! Hold the government accountable for Katrina's aftermath

Put your obituary in the local paper.

That should do it.

7. Say you are becoming addicted to gambling, and you have to stop.
Say you are pledging all the money you would lose gambling to Katrina relief, to supporting out of work jazz musicians, whatever.
:crazy:

10. I've got it! I've got it!
Carpal tunnel! The only injury worth having when you're trying to get out of playing poker.
