So, I can bet on whether I'm gonna shit my pants this year? Great way to lift my spirits if I were to shit my pants.

You'd have to convince enough people that you aren't going to shit your pants first "@fartographer@lemmy.world"

Hey y'all. It's been a while since I've shit my pants. And I really think I can make it a full year this time!

If you offer enough odds, someone would take it just to make you shit your pants and prove it. A one penny bet with $10,000 payout? Maybe you forget about it and come 2026 some idiot takes you for a wad-o-cash.

I'm not 100% sure that I follow what you're saying, but it sounds like you're calling me an idiot who is gonna win $10,000??? This is so exciting!
