"Mad at the Internet" - a/k/a My Psychotherapy Sessions

Isn't this still telling Null what to do in a way? Let the man sperg, quit bringing it up, etc

It's his site and he can do what he wants. But if he's acting like a retard, I have no reservations about telling him that. He can ban me if it bothers him that much.

@Schizofriend we all have moments of weakens and do things we shouldn't, the instinct to be a sperg is often irresistible in the moment.

Not false.

Did I miss chapters 4 and 5 of Life is strange: double exposure somewhere?
Is the series on pause due to moving + Christmas?
If so, please take your time!

Null threatened to finish it this weekend.

if smoking wasn't worse than being fat for your heart I'd do it tbh

Same, also just dealing with the dental issues that also come with it and the smoke residue ruining all my shit alone is enough for me not to touch the stuff. I did consider vaping because I need a better stimulant than caffeine sometimes, but I hate most designs of vape devices. This one kinda made me tempted to get it and just try it out because I always liked tobacco pipes.

I miss when everybody smoked. Needing a smoke was a reason to go out by itself. Then you return the favor later. It was like a really nice economy of stinky coughing. It also kind of made everybody equally disgusting. It kills your sense of smell and your sense of taste so if this girl has really awful breath just smoke a cigarette and forget about it. Smoking was romantic. You looked cool smoking. It was cheap too. Before smartphones it's how you stopped yourself from being bored. You always had a lighter on you and had access to mankind's very first important discovery. Tell me where's your lighter?

He was less mad about tranny mafia ruining his life and keeping his site unstable for months than he is about people telling him how to make coffee.

You can interact with a tranny and reasonably expect nothing but lunacy. Not so for the average person (optimistic).
Damn that is a lot of milk to put in coffee doe. Increase it until GOMAD status is achieved. The meme exercise regimen shall commence.

Cigarette tobacco in the US is especially disgusting because its odor never goes away. I dunno what they are doing but European tobacco or even pipe tobacco is not as volatile as cigs sold in the states.

Turkish coffee is just vantablack mud cooked and drunk with all of the grit, so your sufferings are alien to me.

Turkish coffee is great and I miss it in the West. When I was in Egypt they made this thing that was like Turkish coffee but with even more grit plus an insane amount of added sugar, and it was the best coffee I ever had. I've never worked so hard as after that afternoon coffee. It did most likely shave three years off my life though.

You know, there is another stimulant that hasn't been discussed yet...

The only way I'd trust a vape is if I got into the vape modding autism and built one myself. Pipes are unfathomably based though.

Most cigarettes in the US save for like American Spirits are full of additives, that may be a reason.

Yeah you're right, bananas. I don't have it saved but Bossman also smoked banana blunts. (I am serious)

 

[he who has thus come/gone]

Nobody drinks black coffee for the first time and thinks it's delicious. It's an acquired taste, like whisky or beer. Just keep doing it and you'll eventually come to enjoy it.

The simplest alternative is to buy caffeine powder and mix it in with a drink of your choice. You can buy the caffeine capsules on Amazon and just mix the powder into a drink. I imagine it would be sour or salty if just mixed with unflavored water, though.

Alternatively, you can get caffeinated meal supplement drinks (like Ensure) at a grocery market. Just drink that as (part of) your meals or as a replacement for snack calories you'd ingest during the day. I've tried them while bulking or when I was too stressed during exam periods to eat breakfast, and they're pretty good.

Monster Zero has 10 calories and is okay. Not as good as regular Monster, but much better calorie-wise (and the lack of sugar is good).

Same, and I just don't have the time for all that rn. Also, I would be too paranoid about the nicotine being contaminated and worry about it poisoning me.

Ceci ne pas un cyberpipe.
Can Elon Musk tell when you last took a puff?

What about snus, does anyone do that any more, and does it also give you cancer (I assume yes).

While rewatching the 2022 games streams I found a hidden gem - the very first time Nool was exposed to the word "Balldo."
It's found in the first few minutes of Outlast part 1.

@The Skeksis Emperor an American packaged cigarette is like 10% tobacco and the rest of it is strips of paper that have been dipped in a chemical and tobacco tea and dried out. American mass market cigarettes are gross as fuck and give smoking a bad name. If you want cigarettes rollies or American Spirits are pretty much the only game in town.

AS Turqoise are all I smoke now because of this. Everything else is synthetic trash even if they taste better or have more nicotine. AS is forced to print "these cigs aren't safer than other brands" on the box but I guarantee that someone smoking newports will have a significantly higher chance of cancer than someone smoking AS. Not to say that AS ciggies are safe but they are the only high quality real tobacco brand.

The best way to smoke is to grow and harvest your own tobacco and smoke out of an antique American pipe.

it's not that hard to make your own. Greece makes a similar style of coffee (exactly the same). You just need a coffee pot like pic below, some very fine ground coffee and a little patience. You can get both the coffee and these little pots on amazon if there are no importers in your location. Just search "Greek/Turkish" coffee and coffee pot and watch a youtube video on how to brew it.

There is literally no way that they aren't safer than other brands. The Indians smoked and chewed like fiends and they didn't have many problems.

Smoking only became substantially dangerous when they started making cigarettes a packaged good with all kinds of shit put in them. People weren't retarded 150 years a go like we like to imagine. Educated people had a pretty good idea things like lead and asbestos were dangerous in the early 1800's, we primarily suffered from intentional suppression of the dangers to ease public fears, and a lack of alternative materials. If smoking was always super dangerous they'd have a decent idea of it back then.
