What Are Your Vices?

It seems like all my life I have had vices. In high school, it was video games. College, drinking and weed. Now it is caffeine and sports betting. At this point I feel it is inevitable to have a few things that I can't do without, and I don't necessarily think it is a bad thing. All of us are going to die, might as well do the things we love and indulge in whatever pleasures suit us best.

What are your vices?

Clear liquor and mixed girls with fat asses.

Also clothes. Spend so much on trendy and nice clothes because I'm into fashion way more than my actual career.

Don't beat yourself up on this, Eric. Some people like taking the long way home. Who the fuck knows?
 

in my mid 30s trying to keep it tame

27yo ditzy well-endowed brunettes with confidence issues

cold beer on a hot day

What is the answer to 99 out of 100 questions?
 

David Aames beat me to it. I live in SoCal, so plenty of that around (brunettes and blondes). I get access to the Asian market, a bit of a perk I'd say.

Cold beer on a hot day. Trying to find ways to dress nice enough and be well-built. Boxing, running (One Punch Man/Rocky Balboa anyone?).

Live MUSIC. Cannot get enough of that. I've become a regular with an order of beer and live music next to me on the weekends. Freaking loving life.

No pain no game.
 

I like alcohol, I mean I really love high quality alcohol with a nice cigar. Not to brag but pot smokers can't generally afford a $40-50 cigar for a single smoke session. Fuente Fuente Opus X is my favorite with Pappy Van winkle bourbon. I'm over my weed phase. I would recommend smoking the green rather than drinking if allowed. The herb doesn't make you do stupid stuff or get into fights with people. Worst vice? It is short, skinny, small blonde girls with beautiful eyes. Haha, college days.

hardcore exercise...rock climbing, bouldering, lifting, intense cardio (no hamster treadmilling) watersports etc... adrenaline and the pump alone can turn a depressed weakling into something great.

I'm real bad talking to cops though - we don't get along.

Video games, cigarettes, light beer, women with dark hair and pale skin (Anne Hathaway, oof).

Working in China for 2yr did not help with managing the above....

 

A true renaissance man.

i done every shit under the sun and i quit every shit under the sun. im now only addicted to heavy squats and pulls and snatches and deepthroat. i'm gonna be addicted to test soon and then more shit im sure.

out of all the shit, heroin was the best and my solo multi-day drink-ins used to be pretty great as well. being a tinder ho was also a great time while it lasted. i was a little addicted to non-therapeutic doses of benadryl for a little bit in my teens. ask me about the spiders on my wall t-shirt
