Gambler
So a gambler is down ten grand and considers cutting his losses but his buddy tells him he can't quit. If he leaves then all the money will have been lost in vain. Does he:

A)Thank his buddy for setting him straight, or
B)Ignore his buddy and leave the table?

*edited to make for a more Christ-like parable.

I didn't know you were an enabler.

No, WE'RE the gambler. See, it's like one of Jesus's parables. Except I use the words "dick" and "fucking.

Well, punching people in their dicks is always fun. ;-)

B) Ignore his buddy and leave the table.

He had already decided to cut his losses. Thinking for one's self is almost always a good thing.*

Obviously, this isn't a real situation, because quitting gambling is far more difficult for most people.

* Except for serial killers, delusional Presidents, etc.
