But I don't eat donuts so they would never be part of my wager? Would I instead be betting dollars to bagels or perhaps some other edible treat?
EDIT: No farming here - I am trying to understand an age old saying that has never made sense to me... I am looking for enlightenment, here: on VNLance!

OHHH.... "Dollars to donuts means you wager everything that you own. There is no holding back so to speak. You bet your hard earned cash, your food and anything in between."
I never realized it was stating a range... I thought it was akin to saying "I'm gonna bet MY dollars to YOUR donuts". At that point I'd be saying "  eah I think I'm on the safe end of this bet".

It could mean that as well, but who wants to win donuts? I would rather wager my donuts to your dollars for the sure bet

I bought a doughnut and they gave me a receipt for the doughtnut... I don't need a receipt for the doughnut; I give you money and you give me the doughnut, end of transaction. We don't need to bring ink and paper into this.
I can't imagine a scenario that I would have to prove that I bought a doughnut. To some skeptical friend, "Don't even act like I didn't buy a doughnut, I've got the documentation right here... It's in my file at home..."
"..under 'D'."

I was going to make a really filthy donut comment then realized what I was doing so I'll leave that to someone else.

Probably for the best since this at least serves the all too important cause of humor.

So lets get the post history here.
TNO sucks turned into "there is no camps in DAoC" turned into assjamming, then to "donuts."
P.S.
I spell my donuts like dunkin' donuts. :o

That was my thinking, Maluv
Do you know that I haven't eaten a donut in over 6 years what with trying to be healthy and such?
Now muffins are an entirely different story...
EDIT: Assjamming to donuts is a bit scary.
