What are you addicted too?

[crandc]

Lifelong sweet tooth. Although I can't eat supermarket baked goods or most mass produced candy. High end sweet tooth! Baking peanut butter & jam cookies this weekend, organic pb and homemade jam.

Salads. Serious. If I don't eat a salad with lunch and dinner I feel it's not a meal.

Chewing gum. Totally stupid at my advanced age but I CANNOT leave the house without a piece of gum in my mouth. I only chew for 5-10 minutes, but have to have it.

Loathe mayonnaise with a passion, it reminds me of melted slugs, will not eat anything with mayo on it and so glad the Blazers did not draft O.J. Mayo. I mean, wife killers and melted slugs? ugh

Tea drinker.

Law & Order SVU marathons!

All told my vices are pretty wimpy, got to admit.

I agree about mayo.... I don't like the taste, I don't like the texture, and I don't like the idea of it. It just seems disgusting to me.

What about aiolis if they are not pre-made?

They can call it aioli, westnob, but it's still mayonnaise!

Am addicted to gum as well, crandc. I tend to grind my teeth a lot, and the gum chewing helps alleviate some of that.

Several times when I've unknowingly bit into a sandwich with either mayo and mustard on it, I immediately puked. They're not good for you nutritionally and are generally cheap crap, but I've an over the top/phobic level of distain for those two

I'm addicted to my morning cappuccino, endorphins & mountains, but I'm a full on Bball junkie

I'll throw a flashbang at my own guys if I have to.

I posted earlier this night but deleted it, because I hate being "that" guy. I'm the antithesis of a tightass that gets hungup on semantics, but I've really developed a problem with the overusage of "addiction" over the years.

You're not "addicted" to basketball, music, video games, or salad. Those are interests, pleasures, and maybe even obsessions, but they're not addictions. The word "addiction" is a word that has very negative connotations, whereas the things listed in this thread are largely the things that can save people from real life addictions.

Pet peeve of mine as well.

 

[MickZagger]

Might as well face it, I'm addicted to love.

NOVoodoo I think we all realize the term is being used loosely. I am a tech writer by profession so I know about precise terminology. I also know the difference between formal writing and chats.

I went through withdrawal when I quit cigarettes. Actual physical withdrawal. I would be uncomfortable without my chewing gum but would not have physical withdrawal. I do know the difference.
