[hedonist--poet-deactivated20240]

Addictions are not poetic or romantic like you see in the movies. Being  an addict is not pretty. It does not make you edgy. It turns you  into  someone you can’t recognize anymore, and maybe that’s why most people fall in love with it. Because they don’t like who they are, and they want to become someone else. Something different. Even if it’s an addict.

When asked “What do we need to learn this for?” any high-school teacher can confidently answer that, regardless of the subject, the knowledge will come in handy once the student hits middle age and starts working crossword puzzles in order to stave off the terrible loneliness.”
