Any vices that you wish you could give up ?

[toneus79]

Okay I don't drink (well only when I go out and in moderation), I don't smoke (except from breathing in traffic fumes all day long), and I don't do drugs (except for the ones the doctor gives you), but I do have a vice cum habit that I just cannot kick.

Pretty much every day without exception I drink seven cups of coffee. Each cup of (black) coffee has three sugars in it (how can I taste it otherwise), and is accompanied by two chocolate biscuits (otherwise the coffee gets lonely). So in total, and not counting the caeffine, that is 147 spoons of sugar a week, and 98 chocolate biscuits. I sometimes think this isn't very healthy. In fact I am always exercising doing either martial arts or cycling, yet always seem to be about a stone overweight.

Apart from that my diet is really healthy, yet I just cannot kick this, and god knows I try. I am always going on little cycles/purges of tipping the jar of coffee in the bin and smashing up the remaining biscuits, only to go out and buy a new lot within 24 hours (this also adds to the overall cost).

Perhaps the healthy thing to do would be to take up smoking.

Confused (and hyper) of London

I put salt on lemons. Hypertension waiting to happen. But, my blood pressure always tests really well so far. And I always wash down with water after each bite so my teeth don't suffer at all, but I really should cut it out~the salt is awful for ya.
Oh, and I probably drink too much~stress from the job, mortgage, all that crap, you know how it goes... 😉

XOXO

I assume you are talking about vices other than this forum and tickling (not that I mind either)...
I guess the only vice I have that I would love to change is speeding in my car. I love to drive fast... 55 just seems too damn slow. I know that even though I am a cautious driver and have not caused an accident in over 15 years (speeding was not a factor in that one), there is that chance of losing control on a curve and going over the side of a mountain.
Any one that lives remote and in or near forests like I do knows all about the time of day called "deer o'clock" or "deer-thirty." That is one of the worst times up here for speeding. Although they cross the roads at anytime of the day or night, "deer o'clock" and "deer-thirty" is the worst. Coming around a corner and encountering a good sized deer is almost a given... but I still find my foot heavy on that pedal.
I tried to have the doc surgically remove the lead in my foot while he was working on that leg but all I got was a raised eyebrow.
After my last ticket... I pulled away from the nice officer... 3 miles later I looked down at my speedometer and saw I was going just as fast as I was when he pulled me over. *sigh*
So yeah... I suppose I'd like to be rid of my "need for speed."

If I could trade in my general sloth / laziness for a pleasant little drug habit, I'd do it any day (not hard stuff, though). I've quit smoking 2 years ago and don't drink overly much. I'm rather creative but easily distracted so it always takes much longer for me to do things, even those that I'm interested in, than I estimate beforehand.

And, Metal, 20 beers in one go is a _bit_ much, imho (if it's half-litre bottles, or also the smaller 0.33 ones). I'm not unused to alcohol but my limit is about 7-8, at which point I'll get _very_ tired and have to stop (or fall asleep with a half-empty bottle in hand). 😛

...and another vice I have is fast food, fried chicken, and hot wings. Im not overweight at all but Ill go to taco bell and get 4 tacos, 2 Gorditas, and a Burrito, or get 40 hot wings, or a 10 pc fried chicken meal at KFC, even though I am not overweight, I know it is all probably messin my heart, and cholestrol up.

Damn! If I inhale walking past a bakery I gain 10 pounds! Lucky lucky dog!!!

Let me see...What vices would I give up?

I suppose all of them.

I have the utmost confidence it would increase my lifespan by at LEAST 80 years.

I gave up emptying three or four salt shakers on my french fries or mashed potatoes and knocked my BP down 10 points.

Now if I could just quit smoking ...

Meh. I don't know if I'll ever quit smoking. I mean if this planet actually HAD a future worth sticking around for I might quit. But what's the point?

 

[LadyCat]

my 2 cents

smoking... and being a bitch would be good ones...

 

[ticklishscribe]

Hey Chaos...

You and I have a KFC fetish, cool. Lets spend the night together with a big bucket, large popcorn chicken, large strips and large fries and gravy. Nothing like popcorn chicken dipped in gravy., yummmm

Damn! If I inhale walking past a bakery I gain 10 pounds! Lucky lucky dog!!!
