Orthographic text

(after some discussion they land on bili. an example would be seeing game on the road "bili heb igung". another example would be a lucky, chance goal in soccer which would also be bili. would a good person and a bad person have an equal chance to see the lucky meat? they'd have the same chance, bad people and good people both see the chance meat.)
