In a mall or somewhere else very public, I set up a table equipped with Fluxx and a sign that says “I’ll give you $20 bucks if you play this card game with me.” End of the day, I’ve proselytised for Looney Labs and played a hell of a lot of Fluxx. No material gain, though. ---

> [@](#): > > Aw c’mon c’mon…Shurely you mean walk up to a random babe and say “I’ll give you $300 if you get your top off” Said babe would probably get creeped out and go away. There’s no harm in just speaking the word wristwatch. Also, I just plain don’t like bare breasts. ---

For every nine creeped out who run off,there’ll be the one who’ll stay and do it. ---

I think probably more like 19 or 29 creeped out, actually, and eventually there would be legal trouble through indecent exposure or something of that sort. Interesting idea, though . . . ---

I coach a 22 person breast cancer survivor dragon boat canoe crew. This weekend we are racing and partying, so I’d blow the cash on my crew at the beer tent. ---

OOOOOOOOH I SEE, then in that case I would get a massage, a haircut, a manicure, and rent a really nice rental car for the day and some food and movie tickets. A massage, a haircut and a manicure…sounds like a lady, oh well guys can look and feel nice too. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/im-giving-you-300/255958.md?page=3)
