superconfessional II: the sequel

[YasserG]

so much of our lives are drug-centered 

  caffeine to wake up

  alcohol to forget

  weed to understand 

  benzos to sleep

  oxytocin to feel

  

but that's the way of things 

talk for yourself

[po_boy_fuuma_hatesbargerz]

talk for yourself

 

Chemicals are simply chemicals. You make the judgment call.

grouping oxytocin in with the others, smfh

had surgery yesterday, will be sitting home like a cripple for a few (?) days. Wtf should I do? Get drunk? I spent like 5 days at home around last weekend due to an unrelated fever.

Being drunk and being cripple is not a great combo. I speak from experience..

I bought 1,000 of these stickers today for $5. It just felt so right. 

[rapdancin]

i keep having a fun time with this girl but then i keep messing something up (at least in my head), and then i just get too far inside my mind about it

[YasserG]

The trick is to find a girl that'll stop you from getting too far inside of your mind

Back in high school one of my friends bought three rolls of those exact same stickers.  Those things never get old

  caffeine to wake up/habit 

  Beer to unwind

 

 

The "drugs" I use and how I use them. 

Not that any of you fuckers really care.

[haploid]

so you share the preferences of billions of people? thanks for the heads up

[redX]

Any time, man. 

I got you.

[sporty]

I haven't tried coffee in this life

[timber]

I get migraines from caffeine. It started a few years ago - coffee, dark chocolate, whatever. It's sad.  

[Schoon]

I haven't tried coffee in this life

Me neither.  

 

Do you find the whole "culture" surrounding coffee strange as well?  Maybe it's because I'm an alien to that world but the way some people's social lives revolve around getting coffee is intriguing to me.  

[abracadabra]

Don't all subcultures look weird from the outside?  Is it different than people whose lives revolve around weed or beer or scotch (or clothes or video games or anime or whatever)?

[Trouble]

idk for me it's a bit different, people "fetishizing" food seems just strange to me

i can't take people who claim that they are "foodies" seriously or people that claim consuming certain types of beverages (coffee, tea) is a big part of their lives / a major defining point of their identity

 

alot of the time it just feels like these people like the idea of the act of eating / drinking certain foods more than the food itself if that makes any sense

how so? have you ever enjoyed your food to the point that eating made you happy to be alive? because i feel that way pretty damn often. maybe i just like food a lot and so i probably fall under the bracket of some weirdo who's "fetish-ized" food and what it represents within his life but foreal man. eat a good meal and even shitty days get flipped over by the presence of said meal. 

or

food and sex share the same pleasure centers in the brain.

[ProfMonnitoff]

theres definitely also a cultural capital side to it but yea let people enjoy their burgers or kale sandwiches or whatever, who cares.

I think eating a certain food to brandish a lifestyle or image might be what certain extremists do for particular situations. But in general, food preference (especially for tasty things) is an honest endeavor. 

 

I don't have to eat a burger every frickin day, but there are definitely levels to this shit and if you haven't had a burger that made you suddenly feel like you were wasting money at inferior joints, then you might just live in an unfortunate area.

how ironic, people on superfuture being critical of subcultures.

does the irony... taste delicious?

[dovo]

At first I thought getting caught taking a shit in the ladies restroom would be embarrassing. But it is in fact quite liberating. No more sneaking out when nobodies looking and now I can just sit back and enjoy the potpourri without feeling rushed.

Life is good man.

Also really don't care about clothes or the aquisition of clothes at all anymore. Maybe it's just a phase. Thought I'd ball out on junya an vis once I stayed making money but now I'm sorta here and give no fucks.

fetishizing food is same as doing it with clothes, furniture, architecture/design, etc etc every single preference a person could have or claim to have

 

some people like things in a genuine/innocent/pure way (although this is pretty hard to do as we don't experience anything in a vacuum), some use it to craft an identity or as cultural signifier, most of us are somewhere in the middle (on a board like this, probably skewed more heavily towards one direction compared to the nat'l average for obvious reasons).

 

also, the culture of getting coffee is only as weird as culture of gathering in restaurants, bars, etc i.e. these things didn't always exist but they grew to fill a need. somewhere there is a culture of gathering by the dirt pit and chewing on blades of grass or whatever.

Foodie subculture emerged in countries that traditionally didn't have a strong national cuisine. It's basically a consequence of the adoption of foreign high dining and it's adaptation to middle-class/middle-brow tastes.
