Sponger,

Maybe I have an odd sense of humor or lack of compassion. Either way, I don't think these tickets are a big deal or worthy of all this discussion. It's a joke, if one feels the urge to harm themself or cry over it they should seriously consider re-evaluating their life.

Again, it is tasteless if you know for a fact the person you give it to will react so emotionally. But you can't make that judgment on their credit score alone! Plenty of people in debt have a strong sense of humor and would not break down after receiving a freaking joke ticket.

Why do [censored] always accuse other people of not "having a sense of humor"? If you had a sense of humor you would realize this practical joke is NOT FUNNY. There is no humor to be extracted. If you gain amusement from the misery of others you don't "have an odd sense of humor", you're just a [censored].

How can you tell someone else what they should think is funny or not? Quite a few people in this thread have said that they think its funny? I'd be willing to bet that many of those people are kind, thoughtful people.

I wouldn't find this cruel if someone did it to me at all(and for the record, I have been in a ton of different financial situations due to the variance of being a poker pro) mostly because money does not equal happiness to me. Thats why I think the cancer analogy is so bad. I find it rather sad that people would value money so much as to compare it to living(not having cancer).
