WHY YOU NEVER SEE A STAPLER IN A CASINO

Key Quote: In a new brain-scan study, when young men were shown erotic pictures, they were more likely to make larger financial gambles than if they were shown a picture of something scary, such as a snake, or something neutral, such as a stapler, university researchers reported.

I carry a little pocket-stapler to keep my gambling impulses in check. OW! Damn, I think I have a piercing....

This study sounds like an attempt to villify gambling and porn, which happen to be two of my favorite things. What about men who are aroused by staplers?

Like the man says: a brain and a penis, but only enough blood to run one at a time.
