This is an interesting spin on it. I'll cop to anything, anywhere, preferably with an audience watching (as long as it affects just me, hence the slight distance of the anonymous account to protect the folks I love, but no need to hide who I am from you guys who know me.) I don't know if it's true, but it makes me feel better to think that I'm not weird, they're just all cowards.

No one can escape the hot/crazy line. The funny thing is, lots of people don't find me hot, but they also don't find me crazy, just annoying. I think the line is completely subjective, but still holds its slope regardless.

More like one and a half. Give me another decade and it will be two, for sure.

I'm surprised how many of you have latched onto this part of it. Everyone else in this thread is smarter than 99% of therapists, too. The smart people in that field take the extra step and get the psychiatry degree, they don't tend to hang out in the "two-year certification" counseling careers.

I basically don't drink at all. Just once every couple of months, with one particular friend who needs to drink because her life is pretty shitty, so I do it for her. Dad's an alcoholic though, so probably going to stay away from that slippery slope.
