In this thread, you should respond to the previous poster by stating whether his proposition is +ev or -ev, possibly why if an explanation is warranted, and then making a new proposition. The proposition may involve paying a sum of money (banging chick in wufwugy's avatar) or receiving a sum of money (banging spoonitnow's fat bitch), depending on the nature of the proposition. The amount of money should obviously create a non-trivially easy decision for the next poster.
I'll start.

Hmm....
E(value) = .5(laid by Jessica Alba every day for a year) + .5 (diarrhea in mouth once)
utility of laid by Jessica Alba every day = 1000 (out of 1000)
utility of diarrhea = -900
So EV or E(value) = .5(1000) + .5 (-900) > 0
Ergo, +EV.
