What are your vices?

Asked by GloPro (8404points) April 28th, 2014 from iPhone

Do you feel guilty about them? Do you hide them? How often do you indulge?

I drink. I don’t hide that, and I don’t have a drinking problem. I drink maybe 2 or 3 nights a week, with fewer than one of those nights including more than 3 drinks. That happens maybe 3 times a month, always in social settings.

I gamble. I do it alone, so in that sense I hide it. I also don’t talk about it, so I guess I’m ashamed of it. I have considered calling the hotline before. I play video poker about once a week. Overall, I am in the red. I don’t know why I do it, and don’t know that it brings me pleasure.

I use food as a vice at times. Potato chips, ice cream or cake would be my go to items. I don’t buy these items at the store because I don’t want them around. When they are around it isn’t for long. I hide eating those things, too. Right now I’m into the Sweet Maui Onion flavored onion rings. I can eat a whole bag in two days. I haven’t bought any in almost two weeks.

HAHAHA! FINALLY! SOMEONE LET ME RELEASE MY TRUE EVIL SELF!

I love to do research about morbid things. Or more exactly, things that many people (at least here) don’t usually touch on, like how a gunshot wound affects the body chronologically or how the body reacts to certain poisons. Right now the most morbid things I’m doing research on is the Mafia. But all the research serve one purpose: my writing.

I love to make monologue about things that interests me (if you count monologue as a vice too). Making monologue is quite pleasant in many situations. I particularly love to make monologue about my researches and my projects. Most of the time when I do this, I just want a listener (kind of explains this crap)

I love to make my own rules. Following my rules is much easier than others’ set rules. But I never let anyone know of my rules.

I am a backstabber. Many of those who make my life a living hell will be ridiculed, one way or another. I can be really nice with them, then talk shit about them with others, and most of the time they aren’t aware of that.

For an asexual teenager that’s doing alright, there, kiddo.

@GloPro Oh yeah. I’m asexual. Meaning I don’t find any genders attractive. So I always seek for friends and not lovers.

Everyone at my age is talking about finding lovers, having a relationship, and even getting married, but I’m nowhere into those things.

That’s OK. Nothing wrong with that. Everybody is different.

Add sex to my vices. I’m definitely not asexual.

And add asexuality to my vices :p Many look at me with strange eyes because I don’t have any interest in the opposite gender. Some of my relatives even ask me why I still don’t have any boyfriend. I just lie to them that there is no one in my class that meets my Mr. Right requirement. They just think I am either too demanding or too weird to attract boys :D

One day a classmate of mine performed some treatment to cool down my friend’s fever in front of my eyes (I couldn’t do that). When she had done, she looked at me and said: “You should learn that too, in order to get married”. What she said was fucking annoying, at least to me.

I don’t always follow my doctor’s orders exactly mainly because I don’t trust him.

I don’t get enough sleep.

I routinely do too much physical exercise.

I tend to be anti-social.

There is probably a lot more but I can’t think of any thing to add.

My vices: books, movies, staying up late or all night. Sex might count if I have a partner I really am into. I just seem to get pickier and pickier the more I’m out there…

I love climbing, up not down if its really steep… I always want to get to the highest point it drives everyone with me crazy. Looking up things on my phone. If someone has a question or makes a point I go to my phone immediately.

The other thing I love doing is getting into slightly hairy outside adventures. It’s almost not complete without it.

Quotes and fidgeting.

I like alcohol, pot and videogames.

I like everything! I am a hedonist at heart, and imbibe whether happy or sad.
I have to be half dead to go off my “feed.” Hearty personalities have hearty appetites and keeping my weight reined in is always a challenge. haha

I love sweets, beer, delicious foods of all kinds. I am an epicure at heart. I have never been a boozer, but..I do really like beers and champagne, and have drank more this year because of stress, maybe 3 nights a week, average 3–4 beers, 4 if they are lite, 3 if they are dark.
I smoke a few American Spirit cigarettes ( stress this year again ramping up my naturally hedonistic personality ) and enjoy the occasional marijuana/happy brownie, and also love good movies. I can’t wait to see Godzilla, maybe with a half of a happy brownie in my purse. lol

My philosophy…WTF…we have to die of SOMETHING, all you exercise gurus and carrot stick chewers…you’re still going to DIE, someday, somehow.
I certainly can’t afford to live to be 100, nor do I want to.
Slide out sideways, wine in one hand, chocolate in the other, body all used up shouting “Wheee…whatta ride!”
I’m turning 55 this year and have had plenty of life experiences, I’m good to go at any time, really!
