RANDOM RANTS XLVI: Slightly More Than a Month-ly Edition #1

[madviking]

madviking's Virginia fun fact of the day: 190 proof Everclear is illegal in the state of Virginia.

I dont know what was called but it was supposed to have been 'very mild' the person at the store said.

Not worth it.

 

[madviking]

Fireball??

 

[Visorslash]

I've barely even looked at anyone in ten years. Does that count?

That sounds depressing.

Aimee, spirits?

 

[Visorslash]

Don't you say.

I agree with Borachio here. It's a terrible habit to get into.

Hah!

I've had funner afternoons.

I'm currently one of eight people enrolled in a high level philosophy class...

I agree too.

Believe me, alcohol is seriously addictive. You should try to not do this every day.

Au contraire.

Figure out what you enjoy, then let it kill you.

I'm virtually asexual, so it's not to me. It's dreadfully liberating to hear my flatmate complaining about not getting any action for months though.

I like your take on life, sir.

Virtually?

Thank you, but a few clarifications

1. I don't necessarily subscribe to this literally (but I don't entirely disavow it either).
2. I didn't come up with that, some punk guy did.
3. The real trick though is not to be fooled into kidding yourself about what you enjoy....If I was to subscribe to the above, it's not because drugs and alcohol (and I'm saying that in my best Mr Mackey voice, hmmkay) used destructively fall into the enjoyable category. If I was to live as per the phrase I wanna get eaten by the reef after wiping out at Pipeline, not overdosing on heroin like some loser.

I do have the odd urge, but like me, they're very odd.

It is understandable.

Congratulations on 9000 posts. One more and you are a meme.

I'm sorry, its just curious to me, as whilst I like solitude, I do enjoy company and being with others, if not necessarily in a romantic/sexual way.

Except cigarettes, right?

 

[Borachio]

Au contraire.

Absolutely. Because whether you enjoy it or not, it will kill you in the end.

The trouble with some things (perhaps everything?) is that while they initially appear enjoyable, they can turn out to be not enjoyable at all. The trick, then, is to stop doing them. This can be easier said than done.

Nevertheless, I would like to distance myself from the original post. It was badly put. And probably better not put at all.

To e fair, no matter what, you die in the end.
