Yep cause at least when alcoholics do fukked up shyt they can just blame it on the alcohol. When straight edge people do it they really mean that shyt.
when they on the alc they mean that shyt too...it's just they needed the catalyst of the drink to do it.

The justification for my straight edge position was simply "reality is sufficient", I only ever heard of James Randi espousing something similar. I didn't like the idea of having my perception of reality altered, I also feared, given my anger issues, that I might do something bad under the influences of substances, on the latter reasoning, it would be understandable to question trusting someone that doesn't trust themselves under the influence, which I what I assume their assumption is.


Yeah, and honestly, it would be weird to be in a setting of 8 people, 7 drinking and you decline, this makes you the clearest mind for the night. If the guy declining a drink looked and acted even slightly weird, I'm declining too. So with a drink, it's a fukking drink, you have to drink a lot to actually get drunk in most cases, this just reveals how much people actually drink when they get foolish, smoking, yeah, I'm not doing that but the people I typically hang around would be opting for edibles over smoking, so not just being conscious about lung health, but also wanting to deal with professional services with actual labs.

What’s wrong with coffee?
Thing is, I don't need coffee after a solid sleep following adequate physical activity in a day, the science suggests nothing right now, but I would say, and I'm sure most would agree, coffee is a problem if it is supplementing something, supplementing the lack of energy for an 8 hour workday isn't good in my opinion. Like, I could have had coffee today, just because I sometimes enjoy the taste, but I don't need it and can quit at any moment. Dudes be quiting these days and getting withdrawal symptoms.


I say, saying coffee is bad for you, is very specific to the individual, so a complex situation, but the science doesn't really lean any way, I was simply giving my opinion on the matter, these things will have to be studied over time, sometimes we are just the test population, even if not participating in a controlled environment.


Ironically, there was a study suggesting coffee drinkers live longer, I was thinking, maybe your average coffee drinker is a tryhard to going who tries to outdo the average non coffee drinker, or maybe that slight kick to the heart rate putting you at a steady 110-120 range is a enough to simulate some minute form of physical activity, thus, better than the average person. I will look into that further one day, I personally don't care though because I rarely drink coffee, it's like once a week at best for me.

An opinion skewed by the fact that House of Angostura makes enough rum to replace the entire Caribbean Sea...except that that rum is all consumed, by far most of it by locals.



Adjust your filters accordingly. :pachaha:

The only time I ever encountered someone having an issue with me not drinking or smoking was when I worked with a bunch of white coworkers. They stayed trying to get me to come out and drink with them. Company Christmas party was the same thing. At some point, it became clear they were trying to see what I was about.

I typically surmise people who want to see me in this element are trying to plot on me or gain some kind of ammunition they can use later. Why the hell would I engage in something which could leave me vulnerable around folks I don't know?

Coincidentally, I don't trust people who keep pushing me to drink or smoke or keep asking me why I don't do either.
