Addictive personalities
 
Do you have one?

me -totally. That's why I don't gamble.

Oh, yeah. I dialed up here one day, and here I still am.

I have somewhere around 100 tarot decks, actively read with less than a dozen of them, and usually focus on three or four at a time.

I have a closet full of crocheted afghans. And scarves. And shawls. And mittens. And bags of various sizes. And penguins. Okay, so there's only one penguin, but it is crocheted.

I have a box of completed and to be completed beadwork.

I have a different box of unframed cross stitch projects.

I am so fucking glad I never tried cocaine. Or heroin.

I smoked for 9 years. I have too much caffeine for my own good. Fortunately when I use pain pills, I don't have issues with them.

I might have some addiction issues.

I probably shouldn't mention my flirtation with Magic: The Gathering.

elSicomoro 03-04-2012 06:34 PM

I've been watching a lot of reality TV shows on cable lately...

Griff 03-04-2012 06:51 PM

yep.

I can taper off whenever I want!












I just don't want to, so shut up shut up!

Aliantha 03-04-2012 07:29 PM

I used to, but I've learned to control things a lot more now.

Still, it's a slippery slope. I try to keep away from the edge.

glatt 03-04-2012 08:14 PM

Where do you draw the line between addictive and compulsive? And if you can control your addiction/compulsion, does it mean you don't have one?

Aliantha 03-04-2012 08:33 PM

Yeah, that's what I was thinking glatt.

They say though that if you're an alcoholic, even if you haven't had a drink for 10yrs, you're still an alcoholic, so I guess maybe it doesn't matter?

I think recurring visits to teh cellar are a case in point.

UT, your resume item that you've started the oldest, continuously run forum (or whatever the exact phrase is) is probably almost the same as saying you've introduced crack to a whole bunch of addictive personalities.

I can leave this forum whenever I want. I've logged off thousands of times...

infinite monkey 03-04-2012 09:05 PM

Hahahahaha!

I wish I could quit you! ;)

Undertoad 03-04-2012 11:02 PM

Yes, I will reveal today that the secret was connecting addictive personalities to OTHER addictive personalities.

elSicomoro 03-04-2012 11:09 PM

You've blown acid into our computers haven't you?
