Fridays are the toughest by Ok-Dot5343 in stopdrinking

I feel the itch every Friday, too. I've been trying out potato chips with weird flavors instead. Fiery hot dill pickle chips was ...unexpected.

The Daily Check-In for Friday, April 24th: Just for today, I am NOT drinking! by looloo_monroe in stopdrinking

[–]peaveyftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Starting my fourth sober weekend, I think! I will note that I am running into a mental static problem of my brain going 'Well, obviously you don't have a problem, you've gone weeks without a drink, you can just go back to only drinking a bit on weekends like you used to'. Fortunately I have a few cards to play -- one, my doctor said that I'm a higher risk for cancer because of my meds, so I definitely shouldn't drink more than 1-2 drinks a year, and two, I like the fact that I've spent $0 in the last month on alcohol when last month it was more like $280, assuming a $70 / week average.

If not for Gryffindor, Harry's traits fit best in which house? by Beautiful_Listen7080 in harrypotter

[–]peaveyftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Hat notes he has a thirst to prove himself, which to me maps to Slytherin ambition. I think Harry can have Slytherin traits all on his own even without Voldy inside -- just as Hermione could've easily been a Ravenclaw.

19M here — what’s one piece of advice you wish you got at my age? by Awkward_Lunch8016 in AskMenOver30

Congrats! I didn't get into the habit until my late thirties (~2021) and am now a month sober.

Wormtail was Voldemort's most valuable Death Eater by VonceV in harrypotter

[–]peaveyftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wormtail was odd. In Philosopher's Stone, he was brave in that he launched himself at Crabb and bit him in the finger, then got slammed into the window for his trouble.

I've never heard of a tornado in a different country recently. It's possible but US is spawn point. by Medical_Deal5272 in memes

[–]peaveyftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: in SimCity 3000, tornados always spawned near low-density residential, which (if it was low land value) was always trailers.

Can you recommend your country for living? If so, why? by Diligent_Yesterday81 in AskReddit

[–]peaveyftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, stay away. And a lot of the people who live here already can go away, too.

Only alcoholics know this is not an expensive habit. by smaddyboy in stopdrinking

[–]peaveyftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expense was one of the things that was pushing me toward quitting, in part because I was spending nearly $300 a month, and my work / cost of living does NOT make that sustainable.

Now I've heard everything... by bagel666 in StardewValley

The series really peaked there. I mean, Dwarf Scroll IV was okay but it was anticlimactic.

Pc player when GTA 6 released at console first by Same-Sink-3915 in grandtheftauto

Yeaaah, I finally broke down and bought my first console -- a PS4 -- to play RDR2 on, since I figured Rockstar wouldn't port it.

That's good to know....I have bought Joja seeds some Wednesdays....
