What's something that, after you had it, you immediately wanted another?

"Born with...?" We are born with nothing but potential. We are a product of our environment, right up until we realise that we are a product of our environment. Then we have a choice; continue as we are, or choose to be something different. It doesn't matter which we choose, though... We can no longer blame our parents, our society, our environment, for who we are.
That is a strange question, though. If I was born with empathy and a drive to be a kind, gentle, teaching human then I think babies would be high on the list of people I would want to spend time with. Kindness begets kindness and we know the world could use more kindness!
People like you are so strange to me it's like watching the birth of a child is some traumatic brain injury that changes you forever.

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.
Deviled eggs are not allowed near me or I hoover them up with frightening speed!
So delicious!

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 how i lost 10 lbs.
- Buy less snacks. Say no once at the grocer instead of every day.
- If you do have some then they stay in the kitchen. You serve yourself the serving size. Leave the kitchen and eat the cookie. Easier to say no to getting another.

Urgh, no. I have ADHD, I get prescribed methylphenidate hydrochloride. I take it because it makes my brain work a little better.
At a recreational dose though? No. Urgh, fuck no. The comedown was fucking awful. Zero appetite, can't sleep, can't think properly, just why?

Not a traumatic brain injury...
It's a change in perspective. It's hard to explain without referencing the experience itself.
It's like spending your whole life at the bottom of a valley. You have everything you need. Your life is whole. And then someone takes you to the top of a mountain and you can see a million valleys and a million mountains and an endless sky.
Your valley is the same, it hasn't changed, but suddenly everything is different. Your life is still whole, but that means something else, now.That doesn't do it justice, but hopefully you get the picture...

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.
It's the voltage.
An "Alkaline" AA cell is 1.5v at new and it slowly tapers off as it discharges.
A "rechargeable" AA is 1.2v fully charged, and stays there until about 30% charge (IIRC, it's been decades since I used them) then the voltage falls off a cliff.
From that you can see that a device that uses two AAs is designed to run at 3v, but when you use rechargeables, they only kick out 2.4v.
(They'll do that 2.4v for a lot more AmpHours than the alkaline can do their 3v, and can be stuffed full of electrons to do it over and over again though)
Like everything in engineering it's about the right tool for the job.

Yeah I've only taken a few doses of Adderall and it really comes in "can think to varying degrees" and "call poison control to see if I need to go to fhe hospital". Pill organizers hsve stopped the latter.

Yeah deviled eggs are my weakness. I'll eat myself sick with them

Usually people have a post nut clarity after orgasm
Maybe more men do, I always just want to go again.

Do you have ADHD?
I've heard that people who do and try coke end up pretty calm or unchanged.I think that sounds like meth not coke. Vyvanse and Adderall are already pretty close to meth in chemical structure anyway.

I thought I remembered reading something like this, but couldn't find it and then had to do other stuff.

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.
Aah the sugar addiction.
-
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.
One is too many, two not enough.

Eerily enough, I would have checked six of these off the list in the past day alone… I banged my wife, cut some fresh chives from our balcony garden for our omelettes, made some pu’erh tea with breakfast, then got a slushie on my way into work at the opera, where I wore my favorite shoes.
I may be slightly envious.

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and brusied.
