Nothing Good Came Out of It
Have you ever dreamed about what you’d do if you won the lottery? Almost everyone has. People win every day, but they don’t always use all that money wisely. Winning the lottery can be a blessing or a curse, depending on how you choose to spend your newfound wealth.
Would you pay off bills, and buy a new house? What about investing your winnings in some type of business or project? If you won big, you might even quit your job, and have the chance to follow your dreams. Sometimes, people blow all the money on drugs or gambling, or even random things like emus. Here are a few crazy and outlandish stories about people who hit their jackpot of a lifetime…
That’s A Lot of Money!
My brother hit the lottery for a lot of money. It was $140,000, to be precise. It was a shock because we grew up relatively middle class, and he’d never had that much money before in his life. He spent 50k on a car and wrecked it within a month, because he was also drunk driving, which he somehow thought that he could now afford to do.
He’s now back down to zero dollars in the bank, and living paycheck to paycheck. Mostly because of that car, and all the repairs he had to do on it because of that stupid wreck. He did, however, pay off his college loans upfront, but I’m not sure how much good his education really did him, considering all the crap he wasted his money on. Reddit user: DeCoYDownUnder
Gambling Is Dangerous
My dad’s neighbor won about a half a million dollars from the lottery. Within two weeks, he’d bought a new double-wide trailer, a brand new dually truck, and a massive ring for his brand new girlfriend, who wasn’t the brightest diamond herself. A month after that, he’d added a new 4-wheeler, a new car for his girlfriend, and an RV.
Fast forward to a little over a year later, and his trailer was already a dump, and smelled like cigarettes through and through. His truck was completely totaled, his girlfriend had suddenly disappeared, and we don’t really have to wonder why. He was wondering where all his money went. Now he’s an alcoholic, living alone in a gross apartment. Winning big doesn’t last. Reddit user: SpookyBowser
Emus
A friend of my boyfriend’s parents apparently won a huge jackpot in the lottery, when she played it one time on a whim. She became addicted to gambling, even though she really wasn’t very good at it, and eventually gambled away her winnings, then her and her husband’s savings. She was also really mean to my boyfriend, and told him his life wasn’t going anywhere.
She wasn’t ever very friendly to me either when I came over, so I honestly don’t feel too bad for her. Eventually, my boyfriend’s parents, feeling bad for them, helped them out financially by paying some of their bills, and she went to therapy to get help. They ended up getting a divorce, but the husband’s much happier now, and is dating a new woman. Reddit user: [redacted]
No Regrets
My uncle won $1.2 million dollars a few years ago. He gave my cousins and me 1,000 bucks each (rent money for me), but that was about the extent of his philanthropy. He bought cars, motorcycles, expensive wines and liquors, and visited prostitutes. He bought a house for a girl he was dating at the time (she left him a month later, and kept the house).
The weirdest thing he bought was ten emus. Yes, those really big birds. One would’ve been enough – and very weird – but ten of them? Anyway, he blew through his money like there was no tomorrow, and now he lives in a one-bedroom apartment, because he refuses to get a job. He still thinks of himself as super-rich. Reddit user: [redacted]
He Couldn’t Stop
I had a mate who won first division in the Oz lottery. He was working as a bartender at the time. He won $2 million. He blew it all in two years, and had a great time. His wife left him after it was all gone. All he had left was a nice house, and a great car. He went back to work as a bartender.
Then, a year later, he won again. I’m pretty sure the likelihood of that is way slimmer than getting struck by lightning. Of course, the wife got back together with him. You’d think he’d learn the lesson, right? Nope, he blew it all again. The wife left him again, which doesn’t shock anyone. He’s a good guy, and says he doesn’t regret anything. Reddit user: Kaer
Scratch Tickets Are Addictive
I actually won about six thousand dollars in the lottery two months before I got married. I paid off a couple of small bills with it, and dumped the rest of it into the machines at a casino like an idiot. My fiancé, the wedding, the honeymoon – nothing crossed my mind except getting more money. I didn’t use any of it for the actual wedding.
Gambling is a vicious cycle, and my fiancé ended up dumping me because of it. I was late for my own wedding, because of my gambling addiction. I finally got help, got reconnected with my fiancé, and we got married about a year later. We’ve been happily married for three years now, and are expecting baby number two in the spring.

This Person Has It All Planned Out
I’ve won an awesome $1,000 on scratch tickets on four separate occasions ($950 after taxes, had to go to the lottery office to claim a prize over $600), and $500 roughly 20 times. Some people don’t believe me, but I quit my job and lived off of lottery ticket winnings for an entire year, because my rent was really low, and it was all fun and games for a while.
To this day, I still buy entirely too many scratch tickets, but I got a job again because I was too antsy staying at home all the time. For clarification, I spent most of my winnings on more scratch tickets. I also put a down payment on a new car with the winnings. But, like other winners, I’m still working a regular job, and have typical problems. Reddit user: Q2Cutter
Material Possessions Won’t Make You Happy
I put a million dollars away for my college fund, to pay off my house, and to buy myself a car when I won the lottery about four years ago. After that, I blew two grand on Robux, got a gaming PC, got a McDonald’s chicken sandwich, an American flag, and spent another five grand on more Robux. I gave about $6,200 to my church, and another $9,000 to charity.
I also paid for a random bunker in the middle of nowhere. The bunker is my favorite of all the investments I made. Then I put a bunch in my bank account, and finally put the rest in the bunker. I’m not sure yet if it was all a bad decision, but honestly, so far so good – I don’t have any regrets. Reddit user: Jtdm93
She Should Have Opted For Cash
A family friend’s brother won a decent jackpot, apparently a few million dollars, back in the 90s, I think, or maybe 80s. I never knew the guy – I just heard about him from my dad. Apparently, he spent his winnings on houses, boats, cars, and booze. He was back to being flat broke, and working his part-time construction job, again within a few months.
His story is a legend in my family because, before he went back into construction, he’d given my dad a pretty big part of the jackpot, because my dad saved his life back in the day. My dad invested it, and it kind of changed our lives. I was able to go to college, and my little sister had the money for her wedding. Reddit user: [redacted]
Wow, That’s Crazy!
I was babysitting for a friend, and told her that I didn’t want money. She brought me scratch tickets instead, and I won. You know, people expect you to win like five bucks or something, but I won 20 thousand dollars. She wanted a cut, and it ended our friendship eventually, because I didn’t want to give it up, and she wanted half the money.
It started my scratch ticket addiction, and I kept buying more scratch tickets until I lost it all. Meanwhile, I spent money on a car, and stupid stuff like clothes and shoes. I now feel guilty, and want to rekindle things with my friend, but I think it’s too far gone. I realize how badly I messed up, but when you ruin your life, you have to suffer the repercussions.

Money Changes People
Here’s a lotto story for you: Mickey Carroll won at 19, and blew all of it. Michael Carroll is an English winner of the UK National Lottery. He was a former bin man, but then Carroll won £9,736,131 on the National Lottery in November of 2002. He enjoyed a celebrity status for a time in the British tabloid media as a “Lotto lout.”
He and his friends would buy luxury cars, and have demolition derbies with those cars. He liked to call himself the king of the chavs. I’m not really sure what else he blew his money on, but that sounds like fun. Hopefully, he actually invested a bunch into some good causes though, and saved some for a rainy day. Reddit user: Shaidyn
A Wrestling Show
A friend of a friend won a $17 million jackpot back in the mid-1990s. She was completely broke within three years. Yes, it’s crazy, but true. Her family still hounds her for money constantly, and refuses to believe that she doesn’t have any. She couldn’t say “no” to her family – they bled her dry, and now she hasn’t got anything left to give.
Now, they won’t speak to her because they think she’s holding out on them. It’s sad, because winning money in the lottery should be an enjoyable moment, especially for people who can really use it to better themselves. However, it actually can break up your family in the end, because people show their true colors. Most people are just plain greedy. Reddit user: Bicyclegeek
He’s Broke Now
Here’s a rags-to-riches – and back to rags – concept. It fully explains the experience of 19-year-old Jonathan Vargas, who won $35.3 million playing Powerball in 2008. He started a professional all-female wrestling business under the name “Wrestlicious.” The women wrestlers wore revealing bikinis. After one year of prime-time broadcasts, Wrestlicious was canceled. Yes, he really thought this was his ticket to fame, and even more fortune.
He was completely bankrupt only one year after winning over $35 million. Mr. Vargas thought he had an excellent idea, but it didn’t pan out the way he wanted. I wonder if he had any other plans for that money. Surely anything would’ve been better then the wrestling gone wild idea. It wasn’t even ten grand that he blew; it was over 30 mil. Epic fail. Reddit user: [redacted]
Another Rags To Riches Story
My uncle won nine million dollars from the lottery. He bought a large piece of land in Amish country, built a mansion on it, bought a bunch of toys like boats, ATV’s, and so on, and even adopted a kid. A bunch of my crappy extended family moved to where he lived in Maine, and immediately began asking him for money.
Two years later, his picture-perfect lifestyle all changed. Why? He ran out of money, of course. So what happens next? He divorces his spouse and pawns the kid off to my mother, who, out of love and pity, raised him. So don’t do any of that, I guess. By the way, no, I’m not the kid he adopted, but my mom did raise him. Reddit user: the_Guitar_Teacher
That’s Too Many Cars
Many years ago, a lady in Toronto won $7 million dollars in the lottery. She and her husband were poor, but she really struck it big. This story was an honest to goodness rags-to-riches story. They had lavish parties with all their friends. They also bought expensive memorabilia, a big house, expensive furniture, cars, and other costly items that they’d only dreamed of owning before.
Although that sounds awesome, things actually got much worse in a hurry. They were flat broke in seven years, and the husband is now working two jobs to survive. If they would’ve just saved a little bit of the money, even a tiny amount, they could have enjoyed a modest, but good, life. But no, they wanted to go all out on crap they didn’t need, with people who didn’t really care about them. Reddit user: G8kpr•1y•
They Really Liked Them
A local woman won $12 million in the Lotto 649. She went from your basic regular car to an $80,000 Mercedes-Benz and a new Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit every year for her, her husband, and their son. I found out later that the $12 million was gone in just a few years. All of it disappeared. I found out through contacts at several dealers that they’d purchased almost 20 vehicles in 6-8 years.
Then they got hosed on the trade-in value almost every time. The vehicles didn’t account for all $12 million, but they certainly accounted for a large portion of it. Seriously, who needs that many cars, though? There are so many other things you can spend it on to at least get some type of investment return on your assets. Reddit user: [redacted]
What A Loss
I don’t remember if it was the late 80s or early 90s, but they made a documentary on Danish TV where they went out to three former lottery winners (all who’d won one million Danish kroner). They wanted to hear about how these people had spent the money. One of the couples had spent the entire amount on erotic movies, and practically nothing else.
Their basement was filled with VHS tape after VHS tape. The funny thing is that VHS is now obsolete, and all of that stuff is free on the internet. Who wants a million dollars worth of vintage crap like that anyway? Nobody, that’s who. They probably still watch it though; that is, if their VCR works after all of these years. Reddit user: WrestlingWoman
Gambling Can Become Problematic
It was someone I knew who won the lottery. My friend’s dad was extremely rich because of his win. I’m talking like multi-millionaire rich. A couple of years ago, he got detained for tax fraud, and now owes around 40 million dollars in back taxes. They’ve since had to sell almost every one of their many houses around the world, and all their other assets, to pay their tax bill.
My friend, who used to fly overseas just to catch an early release of the latest iPhone, now counts her change when we go out for meals. I guess the moral of the story is to make sure you pay your taxes even if you hit the lotto, or are mega-rich, because you can lose it all just like that. The IRS doesn’t play around. Reddit user: BreakfastCheesecake
Las Vegas Can Be A Dangerous Place
Evelyn Marie Adams won a whopping $5.4 million. She won the New Jersey lottery twice, in 1985 and 1986, and admitted to being broke in an interview with The New York Post in 2012. Adams had a serious gambling problem, and lost the majority of her money in Atlantic City. It’s crazy to think she was lucky enough to hit the lotto twice in a row, but dumb enough to lose it all back at a casino.
Actually, she isn’t dumb. It’s sad, but people with a gambling addiction can’t stop. They feel the need to continue with the belief that they’ll eventually get all of their money back. It doesn’t always work out that way, and many gamblers are left penniless even after winning millions of dollars at a given time. Be careful, people. Reddit user: [redacted]
A Repo Tale
Alex and Rhoda Toth won a total of $13 million. The couple accepted payments of $666,666 a year over a 20-year span starting in 1990, but filed for bankruptcy in 2006 after living a lavish lifestyles in Vegas, and enduring a slew of legal expenses resulting from family drama. The couple was later charged with tax evasion. Maybe their bad luck had something to do with the number of payments they chose.
Rhoda was sentenced to two years in prison, and was fined $1.1 million. This couple clearly didn’t know how to manage their money, or how to make it last. They probably could’ve benefited from hiring a financial planner. Seriously, that’s the first person lotto winners should contact after hitting the jackpot, right after their moms, of course. Reddit user: [redacted]
Attempted Murder
When I was a repo man, one of my more unusual assignments was repossessing a Cadillac from a recent $1 million lottery winner. While investigating to determine where the vehicle was hidden, I learned that when the annual lottery checks arrived, she quickly spent them on partying. This left her without enough to make her car payments, which is just pretty dumb.
One night, I drove her car away while she slept. Luckily, she didn’t notice, otherwise I might’ve had to deal with an angry woman thinking she was privileged for getting lotto checks every month. Well, she didn’t budget them right, so it was her loss. She lost her car that day, and I have no idea if she is still partying, or trying to change her ways. Reddit user: [redacted]
Watch Out For Scammers
Have you ever heard the Willie Hurt lotto story? Willie Hurt won 3.1 million dollars in the Michigan lottery in 1989. The money didn’t last as long as it probably should have. Within two years, his marriage was over; he lost custody of his kids; and he was charged with attempted murder. He spent his winnings on his divorce, lawyers, and drugs.
He also had $545,000 stolen from his car in 2003, and was sued by Caesar’s Atlantic City for $1.5 million in bounced checks. That amount alone was half of his winnings right there. It only took him four years to spend all of his money, and hit rock bottom. It’s a terrible story about somebody who really could have changed his life. Reddit user: [redacted]
Living It Up In A Small Cottage
In Kansas City, there was a grandmother named Marva Wilson. She’d entered herself into the Missouri lottery in hopes of winning the big jackpot. She happened to be that one in a million who actually wins when they buy a ticket over the counter. She ended up winning a crazy amount that added up to a total of $2 million.
After she won this back in 2008, she didn’t manage to keep the money around for very long. Why was this? It wasn’t because she spent it frivolously; it was due to a scam conducted by a family acquaintance named Freya Pearson. This left Marva Wilson with absolutely nothing. There was some justice, though, and Freya Pearson was sentenced to five years in prison for her crime. Reddit user: [redacted]
The Youngest Winner
This Yorkshire man, Roger Griffiths, managed to win the UK National Lottery in October of 2005. What did he win? The whopping amount of 2.3 million pounds. The first thing he did after winning was to quit his job, and so did his wife. They were ready to live on just their lottery winnings, which in the end, probably wasn’t the smartest choice by the couple.
They completely binge-spent, and bought designer clothing, the fanciest cars, completed a barn conversion, and also went on many crazy expensive holidays. Because of this, their money soon ran out, and not only did the money disappear but so did their relationship. Their marriage completely ended, and their assets were then sold to cover their debts. They are together now in a small cottage. Reddit user: [redacted]
The Way Not To Use Your Money
Her name was Callie Rogers, and she happened to be the youngest winner of Britain’s lottery ever. She managed to win 2.5 million pounds in 2003 when she was just sixteen years old. What would you have done with that kind of money in your teenage years? No one was managing what she was doing with it, so let’s just say it didn’t grow into more millions for Callie.
She was a supermarket checkout girl from Cumbria. So she quit her job, and then went off the rails. She spent a lot of the money getting a bunch of cosmetic surgery done, and she also enjoyed using a lot of drugs. She also took a few vacations, and bought everyone she knew expensive gifts. By the time 2013 rolled around, what did she have left? Just $2,580 in the bank. Reddit user: [redacted]
Losing It All In A Day
How does someone manage to go through $115,000,000 in just a few years? Well, it happened to Mr. Whittaker. He had that much money left, even after he’d to given millions back to the state because of the lottery taxes. Don’t judge him just yet; he was actually quite charitable with all of his money. He allocated 10% of this money to charity, and also started the Jack Whittaker Foundation.
But after this, it all went downhill for him. After just four years, he was left with nothing. This was because he started to keep his money in his car, and it got robbed. He then started to enjoy spending his time and money at strip clubs, and spending money on drinks and lap dances. He also aided his granddaughter’s drug habit and, in the end, said he wished he’d never won the money. Reddit user: [redacted]
Sharing Is Caring
Could you lose $1 million in just a day? It’s certainly possible, but how would you do it? The first thing to know about winning the lottery is that if you have a greedy family, you need to watch your back. This happened to Urooj Khan. He was a dry cleaner from Chicago, and he won $1 million. It happened on the 19th of July and, the very next day, he was found dead.
On first examination, it was presumed that he’d died from natural causes. After investigation, however, it was concluded that this man had been poisoned with cyanide. His parents were actually the main suspects. For now, the case is still open, and under active investigation. His sister is shocked at how long it is taking, and hopes he will get the justice he deserves soon. Reddit user: [redacted]
Spiraling Out Of Control
There are laws that require full financial disclosure of assets during divorce proceedings. This keeps disgruntled spouses from keeping a large number assets from their former significant others. But some people think they are above the law, and still try their best to keep their money a secret. It usually doesn’t work. This was something Denise Rossi learned after she won the California State lottery jackpot.
She’d won $1.3 million and wanted to keep it all for herself. It completely backfired on her in court, and her husband Thomas was awarded the entire amount instead. This was largely because she’d violated the financial disclosure laws. Justice got her in the end, and it just goes to show that in all aspects of life, sharing is caring. Reddit user: [redacted]
Cheating The System
So, you might not think that money will change you, but there’s a chance it will. It brings out the bad side in people most often, and you might not have even known that part of you existed. This happened to Lara and Roger Griffiths. It really affected their relationship. They’d won $2.37 million, and were really enjoying their life and 14-year marriage.
They started buying expensive cars, getting tattoos, and even getting plastic surgery. Nothing could stop them, and they started to spiral out of control. They even had two daughters, but this didn’t matter to them. They made a few very bad investments, and ended up losing all their winnings. They lost everything, and even the comforts they’d had prior to winning all that money. Reddit user: [redacted]
Money Isn’t Everything
There was this woman, Amanda, who was living quite a tough life. She ended up winning the lottery; which was great. She’d been living on welfare since 2010. Lottery records are made public, and this led news outlets and police to investigate her after she’d won $1 million. It turns out, she was really naughty, and people weren’t impressed, to say the least.
Even though she’d just won this lottery, she was still cashing her welfare checks. She was caught doing this, and still tried to excuse herself by claiming she needed them. After you win that kind of money, you definitely don’t need food stamps. The court didn’t care for her excuses, she was sentenced to nine months probation, and had to pay all the money back that she’d “stolen.” Reddit ser: [redacted]
Look After Your Ticket
In Pennsylvania in 1988, a guy named William Post won the insane amount of $16.2 million from their lottery. But, in just a year, he was $1 million in debt. He said that he wished it never happened to him, and that it’d been a complete nightmare, actually. His former girlfriend ended up suing him for a third of his winnings.
Shortly after that, his brother was arrested for hiring a hit man to kill him, because he hoped he would inherit some of the winnings. He’d put the money into the family business, and then went to jail for firing a gun over the head of a bill collector. Post says that he was much happier when he was broke. After that, he lived on $450 a month welfare, and food stamps. Reddit user: [redacted]
Back To A Normal Life
What happens when you win the lottery, but you’ve lost your ticket? This happened to Martyn Tott and his wife, Kay, from the UK. They had technically won the 5 million pound prize in the lottery, but had lost their ticket. This was followed by a seven-week investigation by the company that runs the national lottery. The company said the claim to the winning ticket was actually legitimate.
Unfortunately, there is a 30-day time limit on reporting a lost ticket, so the company was not required to pay the money to them in the end. It is the largest unclaimed amount since the lottery came about in 1994. Kay said that thinking that you will get the money is very liberating, and having it taken away from you has the opposite effect. She said it is a type of torture. Reddit user: [redacted]
Winning The Super 7 Jackpot
So, in 2004, there was a single mother who’d been living on welfare. Her name was Sharon Tirabassi. She then cashed a check from the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corp, for more than $10 million Canadian dollars. What did she end up spending her winnings on? She spent it on a big house, cars, clothing, parties, trips, family, and loans to friends.
After a decade of this type of lifestyle, she was back to hitching a ride on the bus, working part-time, said goodbye to the big house, and was living in a rental. She said, “All of that other stuff was fun in the beginning, now it’s like, back to life.” She did, however, put some money away in trusts for her children to claim when they turn 26 years old. Reddit user: [redacted]
Money Can Make You Do Crazy Things
Imagine winning $10 million in the Super 7 jackpot? It would be insane, and especially so in 1998, when that money was worth a lot more. This happened to Gerald Muswagon from Canada. The thing is that he wasn’t able to handle the fame that came along with winning a prize like this. He went on to buy several new cars for himself and his friends, too.
The house that he bought became known as the ‘party pad’ and he got into drugs and drinking. In just one day, he bought eight big-screen televisions – not for himself, but for his friends. He also put money into a logging business, but this ultimately failed. He soon had to resort to taking a job on a friend’s farm to make ends meet. Reddit user: [redacted]
This Person Loves Games
The absolute worst catastrophe I ever saw involved a friend who landed a recording contract – kind of like hitting the lottery, if you think about it – and what he did with the money and his life. He received $2.3 million as an advance. He immediately spent $1 million as the down payment for a few exotic cars. Yup, just the down payment. They weren’t paid for in full. They were all custom ordered, and would be arriving in a few months.
He then proceeded to spend $50,000 a day on prostitutes, illicit substances, and alcohol for his friends. It completely ruined his life in the end – literally. Of course, his record label heard about what he was doing, but before they could even file an injunction to make him actually produce the record with the money, he overdosed, and passed away. It was devastating. Reddit user: holomntn
The Man With A Plan
I’ve read plenty of stories about how people who won the lottery and ended up broke. If I ever won the lottery, I am 100% certain what I’d stupidly waste all of my winnings on. I would re-create the final obstacle course from Double Dare, with all the obstacles they’ve ever had, and run it until I collapsed. I’d probably only make it through once, because if you’ve ever seen it, you would know how windy and dangerous it is.
I’d probably also re-create the aggro crag and the Temple Run while I was at it. Why not, right? Either that or I’d buy a duck farm, because I just think ducks are so funny, and then I would try to train them to play the drums for more money. This is probably why I should never the lottery, though. Reddit user: the_cc
This Idea Is Dangerous
I totally understand how my uncle blew all his lottery winnings. If it was me, I’d buy a modest three to four-bedroom house. That’s it; nothing with 13 bedrooms. I’d let my family decorate it however they wanted. Plot twist? The basement would be the Batcave, complete with secret passages to enter. I’m talking about a $15,000 gaming PC, man-cave dream entertainment center with 88” 4K LED TV, and a console/game collection, as well as an open wet-bar, and a hot tub.
Nobody will know it’s even there, except for my closest friends. Anyone who talks about it outside of the basement itself will be exiled forever, and be treated like a crazy person in public. I know what you’re thinking, “How could you do that to your friends?” They would never betray me. It’d be like a nerdy version of Fight Club. Reddit user: KeepingMyselfAlive
Someone Likes Jello
My dad won the lottery a few years ago, and wisely invested the money. If it was me, however, I’d instantly buy a few million-dollar cars, and see what the most expensive speeding/traffic ticket was I could receive. I know it would probably just end up with them revoking my license, but I feel like if I tried to bribe a cop with one of my million-dollar cars, they wouldn’t be able to resist and would let me go.
And who says you can’t buy friends? Or find sneaky ways out of a ticket? If I managed to get some sense before doing the above, I might just buy an amusement park, because then I could get those cheap adrenaline thrills legally. Mostly, I just feel like I’d need to waste all my money on something that would be wild and crazy. Reddit user: skizfrenik_syco
I totally get how my friend’s parents blew through the money they won in the lottery in just a couple of years. If it was me, I’d buy an Olympic-sized swimming pool, and 182 thousand boxes of Jello with my lotto winnings. I know that sounds like a really specific number, but I’m convinced that it would be the best amount to do what I would need it to. I’d then mix that stuff up in the pool and jump in. Just for the heck of it.
I’d then buy another pool that would just be for swimming, and install it next to the original pool — one for swimming, and one for slurping up my favorite treat. I once filled a bathtub full of Jello, and it’s one of my favorite memories ever, because I just love Jello so much. It sounds crazy, but awesome. Reddit user: CoveredInKSauce
