    Yep. This is why I don't touch alcohol anymore. I don't have an addiction or dependency, but when I drink a beer it makes me want another, and that one makes we want another. Then I'm hungover and filled with regret the next day. No point to it, so I just don't do that anymore.

      Inspired by recently buying a cajon, and my husband immediately buying another for additional living room seating because he loved it.

        I am like this with

        Deviled eggs

        French Fries

        And actually the electric bike, though I didn't get another. It is just so freaking convenient and we have a few people in the house.

        Oddly enough, not with most drugs, nor drink. But speed, yeah. My kid gets Adderall for ADHD and I told her just keep it in her room I don't want to see it. Unless I can have it every day for the rest of my life. I really like speed.

          Depends on the device, some really don't like rechargeable ones. And for device that get changed so infrequently, like tv remote, use alkaline.

          I disagree. Very few devices don't work anymore, and for things like remotes rechargeables are a no brainer. One time cost and then charging them even once and you've made your money back. The only device I always choose alkaline is smoke detectors.

            A cookie.

            ::: spoiler Pro tip:
            Grab a cookie, close the packaging or container, go somewhere else, then eat the cookie. You will want another cookie but not enough to actually go back and re-open the packaging.

            Alternatively, eat something more nutritious first, then set a specific amount of cookies you're allowed to eat. Also, brush your teeth after eating sweet food, such as cookies.

              That’s me. The problem is I need longevity. Most of my devices no longer use enough power to use up batteries but I want them
              To last as long as possible before I have to deal t with them again ….. and that’s disposables

              At least we’re no longer doing that with game controllers: no battery lasted in those but my kids were unwilling or unable to manage rechargeable . We all went back to wired controllers so there are no longer batteries to die

                One day I was cleaning out my second child's too small clothes and legitimately thought "If we have another I won't have to do this right now." Babies are cool indeed!

                I always wished for a third or fourth but we effective an out of time. First was I don’t care if it’s boy or girl as long as it’s healthy. Second I wanted boy because two of the same is easier. But another opportunity for a little girl would have been nice. Babies are cool, kids are cool, teens are cool and college kids are cool. I can’t wait to meet the young adults they are becoming

                    Energy drinks, I could drink em all day if I let myself.

                    After experiencing a pretty good scare when I was a kid. I've avoided repeating that and limit myself to a couple at most.

                            Straight matcha tea. I love the bitter taste.

                            If I have one little amount, I always want more.

                                I've also found less-overly-sweet cookies help, both in terms of not craving them as badly and actually somewhat filling you up compared to the amount of calories you consume.

                                Unfortunately, it's quite tricky to find such cookies in the shops.

                                    Well I have the enelope batteries the someone else suggested, and Amazon basic rechargeable. And devices like my Lazer thermometer, certain mice, certain flashlights tend to not operate fully or as long. Thought the device was just on it's last leg until I popped a generic alkaline in it.

                                    I don't have any super fancy high end rechargeable AA batteries, I've just noticed over the years they're not 100% equal in every device. I use rechargeable when I can, but have disposable alkaline if the device sees limited functionality with rechargeable.

                                      When I was young I was a bit of an arse. Raised by narcissists, I definitely had narcissistic tendencies. It was all I knew.
                                      When my first son was born it was a profound moment. I saw the potential in that tiny, helpless baby and his possible futures... Based on what I was and what I had to teach, I realised that those futures weren't great. So I changed. I have tried every day since to be the parent that I wish I had. I have embraced empathy and kindness. I have shed the anger and vanity... And I have forgiven myself for not doing it sooner. I'm not perfect. I make mistakes.
                                      When I see a baby I see the potential. It reminds me of how much I've changed, how proud of my kids I am, how much I love my family, how much joy I have in my life.

                                      More or less...
