I need a new addiction. Any suggestions?

[sundog]

Preferably something economical & relatively harmless to others... and not terribly messy.

My old addictions just aren't filling the vacuum in my existence. I'm bored. Please make suggestions :P

[Mizmoon]

1. coke

not that kind - the cola. I've been trying to quit.
It's like when I quit cigarettes, only sillier cause it's just sugar and caffine.

[Bertha Venation]

2. The "My Posts" Page on the Democratic Underground MBs

:eyes:

[xultar]

3. Gadgets!!!! Man I'm so addicted to gadgets I can barely sleep! nt

It's cheap, easy and FUN!

[sundog]

automatic life function...

[dr.strangelove]

5. I am addicted to Waterless Hand Sanitizer

I love the rubbing alcohol smell. True it is stripping the skin from my hands, but it is so much fun to use.

6. online poker

and/or Thai Ladyboys. Take yer pick. :P

[sundog]

[short bus president]

[wtmusic]

[sundog]

[NoSheep]

16. Crossword Puzzles work for me. NYT Thurs-Sun. n/t

[tridim]

14. I recently found one, but it's not very cheap

Building and flying radio controlled airplanes. It's certainly addictive.. Every time I upgrade components I want more performance within a week. I guess it has a rising tolerance level too, just like crack and heroin. The only thing that keeps me from buying everything I see is my lack of cash.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

15. work at a homeless shelter or do youth prison misnistry or pottery?

[sundog]

17. not self destructive enough

:P

:hi:

[JimmyJazz]

18. It's not a new addiction that you need.

:o

[sundog]

19. yes I need a NEW one

my old ones have me bored JJ

I can't do them anymore... I *sniff* CAAAN'T :cry:

[JimmyJazz]

22. Sweetie - you need to get out of the house and out of the restaurant--

all work and no lay makes sundog :boring:

:P

[Bullwinkle925]

27. Let's see............Knitting, Chai Tea Lattes X-tra X-tra hot.

Of course, since you didn't elaborate on the addictions that are now boring you - it's a bit difficult to advise you!

[LiberalEsto]

20. Tea

all different kinds, black, green, peppermint.....mmmmmm

AND/OR

Learn to make bread. Kneading and punching that dough is very therapeutic, and you get to eat the result.

[Sentath]

24. Go for the bread

You can obsess over so many more things with the bread...

[texas1928]

21. airplane glue

that is a good one. Or maybe permanent markers. I like the smell of Sharpies. MMMMMMM

:P

[sundog]

23. now we're talkin

:freak:

[texas1928]

42. are you calling me a freak

MMMMMMM

[Zuni]

44. there is nothing wrong with sticking your head in a bag filled with

model airplane glue until you become dioriented, dizzy and nauseous. Nothing wrong at all. It builds character, just like being fondled by Michael jackson.

[texas1928]

47. Unless you are like the kid in San Angelo

when i was in high school, this kid accidentally glued the bag to his head and sufficated to death. I guess you can say he cleaned the gene pool that day.

[sundog]

46. nobody was kind enough to mention spray paint

the lack of consideration on this board astounds me :7

~sniffs sharpie~

[amazona]

25. birdwatching ?

It can be as cheap or as expensive as you like. If you only feed hummingbirds, there is no mess, because their deposit is clear, but I don't know about those seed feeders.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
--John Mitchell, US Attorney General 1969-72

26. Ultimate.

It's economical: 10 bucks for a piece of plastic
It's addictive: lots and lots of fun
It's self-destructive: your body hurts like hell and you get to hang out with a lot of alchoholics.

[sniffa]

[sundog]

33. I don't think I'm addicted

I have addiction issues. It's hard for me to get addicted to anything :shrug:

[RevolutionaryActs]

34. What about JJ?
