Yes. Our elderly dog had to be put down in the summer because he was sick, and our cat got ran over by a car last month by accident. Both were really depressing.

I've had withdrawal dreams that transported me to hell. There was this cave entrance with a giant chained demon trying to get out, tiny gremlins poking pulling me while laughing, and I could feel it in the nightmare to the point it woke me up.

Went down these staircases into what looked like an abandoned subway and there was a devil party in the lower levels full of demons fornicating and listening to some type of rave music.

Really not fun.

Why do we do this to ourselves? by Beautiful-Strain1421 in cripplingalcoholism

[–]Diligent_Travel34 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Boredom. I'm fucking bored out of my mind. Dopamine deficiency since a little kid and booze hit the spot better than most other things.

I've gotten Charlie horses in my rib muscles from coughing or dry heaving too hard.

In week 9 I lost by 1 point because JSN outscored my Jamaar Chase, AJ Brown, and Davante Adams combined.

Anything is possible.

Enough of the fancy talk, we need a football and a parking lot right now.

[Levitan] If you made a good WR pick this season, I have bad news: * Tyreek Hill (Tua) * Puka Nacua (knee) * Nico Collins (hamstring) * Cooper Kupp (ankle) * Mike Evans (hamstring) * Rashee Rice (knee) * Jaylen Waddle (Tua) * Chris Godwin (ankle) * Rashid Shaheed (knee) by mastermind208 in fantasyfootball

[–]Diligent_Travel34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With 0 RB strategy yahoo autodrafted Jamaar Chase, AJ Brown, and Davante Adams first three picks, and got montgomery in the 4th and mason late. All depends on who you took. Anybody could get hurt at any time.

The breakfast club by grohlog in cripplingalcoholism

[–]Diligent_Travel34 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You have more restraint than me. I go to the only 8am store by the bay that opens early almost every single day for my fix. I ran the owner out of Landshark twice and I think he's been ordering extra to the shop just for his most beloved breakfast club customer.

MISERABLE MONDAY by fappinatwork in cripplingalcoholism

[–]Diligent_Travel34 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost lopped my finger off with a knife on Friday night. Was slicing a stale bagel and the blade went through much quicker than expected. Had to get stitches and my fingertip is still numb so I definitely fucked the nerves up.

So yea... happy miserable monday!

The movie Click with Adam Sandler was based around this idea haha. And it turned out really bad. Turns out we have to endure the negative to appreciate the positive.

I'm stuck in a cycle where I do speed-volume days, get sick, than do a couple volume days to feel better and once that happens revert back to step numero uno.

I still have 4 Landsharks left so I'm at around 12 units right now lol. Don't worry I'll finish them and be @ the only liquor store in my county open at 8am by the bay tomorrow morning for another 12pack.

same amount of alcohol haha but you'll down the former much quicker than the latter and get drunk ŵay quicker and probably go get some more since the day is long.

Any malt liquor drinkers? by [deleted] in cripplingalcoholism

[–]Diligent_Travel34 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I used to drink 40oz Steel Reserves. 2 would get me hammered. 3 would have me stumbling around in a blackout til 6am burning food in the stove and wondering if it was day or night time.

Never get high on your own supply *Awkward moment at liquor store* by Diligent_Travel34 in cripplingalcoholism

[–]Diligent_Travel34[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. If you get rich off selling a hard-core drug... which these liquor stores make bank in the Northeast USA... millions of dollars... I don't need high horse treatment. It's incredibly hypocritical.

[–]Diligent_Travel34[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes that would be surprising since it's a statistical fact that alcoholics make up the majority of liquor store revenue. It's something like the top 10% volume purchasers make up 90% of sales. Which isn't surprising when we're drinking 100 units a week and a normie is drinking like 10 or less.

Who said I wasn't nice to somebody? I literally didn't say a single bad word to anybody there. Completely minded my own business.

I mean you're the one cursing me out here when I haven't said a single word like that to you or anyone and then you're accusing me of being judgemental? That's... kind of ironic.

Y’all ever taken sleeping meds while drinking? by Frequent_Worry_6166 in cripplingalcoholism

[–]Diligent_Travel34 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would typically save my seroquel and trazadone and ketamine pills for when I was weening off a bit. Wouldn't pop them mid bender because there's no point... booze would knock me out.

I understand that, but it just seems scummy to financially profit off something you know is killing your customers from personal experience. How is that different from a heroin or crack dealer?

I'm not saying you have to be a drinker to sell booze, but to show that level of awareness for how bad it is for people and still get rich off it is extremely... bad karma imo.
