3. K&R

Those are the things I know as well. But I instinctively know that the person is a heartless, brainless asshole. I don't really need to break it down much more than that.

10. What if they just lost a bet and are fulfilling their end of the bargain?

I know someone who that's happened to. Made a bet with someone; the loser votes the winner's candidates choice down the whole ballot. Picture/snapchat evidence required!

Lots of people make dumb bets on "sure things"...
