| The Ghost of RubangB said: Sadly working out, video games, and cartoons don't have the "social lubricant" effect that alcohol does, even though they all release the same pleasure chemical into your brain. So if your drinking revolves around drinking with friends and drinking at parties because you don't want to party sober, then you should really take at least a week off. Go to a party or two without having a single drink. If you still have fun, then you're fine, and you can either not drink or drink responsibly, and you'll have fun either way. If you don't have fun going to a party sober, then you might have an issue with anxiety or confidence or something, or you could be becoming an alcoholic. In that case, I'd quit cold turkey for at least a month and try to find a new hobby. If you do try to quit, and and still can't, that's the actual proof that you have an addiction. If that's the case, I'd find a group to go to, but not AA. Fuck AA. |
Being in good shape makes it more likely that a girl will sleep with you. That can get you an even better kind of lubricant.
Now I am not saying that this is a sure-fire thing, but if a girl had the option to sleep with the normal version of you or the version of you who is nice and toned, which one do you think she is going to pick?
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
