being a Brian Johnson-level health guru can't be easy, while i am pretty dialed in on most things, i will eat fast-food if I'm in a mall and I like to have some wine or whisky on the weekend. it's nice to get buzzed and watch a movie and, while we all know booze isn't great, i find the relaxing trade-off is worth it.

what about you guys?

  • I probably chew at least 40mg of nicotine gum most days
  • binge watching fictional TV shows
  • I like contorting my body into unhealthy postures when I work/think, ie sitting on my foot, hunching forward, creating a kind of lazy and meditative discomfort
  • overeating anything, but especially cheese/butter/bread
  • overworking to the point of exhaustion
  • I got in a quite a habit of taking kratom gummies relatively recently
    • I stopped and only take about the equivalent of a beer's worth of inebriation now

Cheese, I can't eat it in moderation. I am a connoisseur of the stuff, I love it all.

reply

what would be your top 3 cheeses?

reply

Ooooh, difficult question. I guess the first three that come to mind would be: Havarti (the creamier the better), Shropshire, and Brie de Meaux (Brie is at its best when it's made from raw milk.

Honourable mentions: Moliterno al Tartufo, Pecorino, cumin seed Gouda, and sheeps milk cheeses.

When I am out road tripping I often stop at cheese mongers and try something new. The best cheese is made from raw milk imo.

reply

as someone who is cheese-indifferent/neutral, this makes me feel like I am missing out on a vibrant cheese subculture.

made me remember when Russia was sanctioned in 2014 and they were bulldozing and destroying all foreign cheese (and other food) - https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/08/06/430043765/we-will-bury-you-russia-bulldozes-tons-of-european-cheese-other-banned-food

cheese lovers were devastated lol

Apparently Coke Zero Sugar!!

reply

Get high and smash Taco Bell

reply

I don't know if that's unhealthy guilty pleasure but I can't restrain myself to traditional home made sweet dishes like -
Gazar (carrot) ka halwa

Choorma

Besan (gram flour) laddoos.

reply

whats Churma, it kind of looks like brown sugar

reply

My main weakness is the combination of junk food and clearance sales.

Fortunately, clearance sales are somewhat uncommon, because when I see super cheap cookies or ice cream and think that those items won't be available in the future at any price, I have a hard time resisting.

reply

it's hard to fight economics AND sugar at the same time

reply

nice try fed

reply

Alcohol is one I enjoy but it isn’t doing any benefit except the relaxed buzz it brings

No good for sleep or anything else but I do enjoy it so I have been trying not to have it the last two weeks and haven’t been to upset going without

reply

nicotine

reply

Beer.

reply

Smoking... I reduced the amount a lot (4 per day), but after I eat it's something I haven't been able to master, and to be honest I haven't even tried.

reply

fast food, chocolate and candies in general

reply

I don't drink alcohol, but I often go late to bed. :-(
