I think KFC is more addictive than the drugs, and probably worse for you.
I've recreationally both crushed and bumped a bunch of oxy and eaten a bunch on KFC. I can pretty definitively tell you one is somewhat more addictive than the other.

I respect that you've put yourself through that, just in case the discussion ever came up on DRC.

This was an interesting, if sad read. Reminded me a lot of The Florida Project, my favorite movie last year.

Update to what I talked about a couple months ago:
This story turned out to be the perfect reflection of the internet as a whole in 2018:
Homeless man, couple allegedly conspired to deceive GoFundMe funds: report
Starts off as a feel good story about helping a homeless vet, then moves into mob outrage when people think money was stolen from that vet, then turns out the entire thing was fake news. All the while one of the main players is a cute IG model type girl.
Fascinating to see this all the way through.

I read this and thought the guy must have blown it all but it's much worse:
Homeless veteran who won $400,000 through GoFundMe donations is back on the streets | Daily Mail Online
So they won't give him the money and claim they spent 200k on his needs but won't say what those needs are. They bought him a camper instead of the promised house and say they gave him 25k that he blew on drugs and friends. So what? When you donate to a homeless man, online or otherwise, you have to be a moron not to think there is a good chance the money will be going to drugs. It's his money he should be allowed to waste all 400k on drugs if that is what he wants. And the girl has a new BMW, gone on a trip to Disney and the dude has been spotted gambling. Hopefully the GoFundMe lawyers will straighten it out...at least they are working for free, otherwise he'd only have like 10k left when it was all settled.
That said, when you are this cute:
my usual sense of moral outrage is very much tamed. Poor girl just wants to have some fun...let her do her thing.

Dunkin' Donuts owner calls police on woman who tries to use store's free Wi-Fi
The article is pretty long, basically the Dunkin Donuts owner was being racial profiling to some black people. For not buy much stuff and accusing of them of loitering there using the free wi-fi.
If a store offers free wi-fi, people are going to take advantage of it.

I'm sorry my liberal friend, but I'm siding with the owner. This statement by the customer, “I told her I planned on buying coffee after I got settled, but not if it were mandated.” is bullshit. It's not her remote office, it's a place of business, and one shouldn't "get settled" until they purchase something. She says if the policy was mandated, she wouldn't follow it. OK, so bye-bye lady, make some room for paying customers.
