Caffeine can cause headaches, or alleviate headaches, depending on the type of headache you get. Something to do with thinning the blood around the brain. Something or other. Perhaps.

Most of what you mentioned is covered in this link

Caffeine does not get enough credit for being an addictive drug.

It is addictive as hell. I don't think it is as insidious as other drugs (alcohol or crack are more destructive to others) but it is good at getting a grip on you and making you feel you need it to function. How many times have you heard, "I can't function properly till I have had at least 2 cups of coffee"? Once I got the need for it out of me, I found the need I felt was entirely artificial. I think some of it is chemical based and some is mental.

Unfortunately, whatever the root cause, the headaches are real.

i don't like walking either, but i sometimes have to do it to get places.

if someone doesn't like smoking, they will still likely go to the places they like whether people are smoking or not. people have to deal with unpleasant shit in many forms; it is not a binary choice. who wants to be the fag in the group that's like 'wait no we can't play pool, people might be SMOKING there!'

Evidently you, faggy mcfaggurson.

Chojin · #83

i smoke a few times a month. if your addiction is causing you to leave dinner 3-4 times to go outside and smoke (as my dad does), it's probably time to re-evaluate your self-respect instead of insisting on poisoning others.

The Leader · #84

Well, maybe you should let him stay in the room. Everyone has to die sometime.

MLE · #85

He's talking about meals out. Also, lol on all the assumptions about his behavior.

The Leader · #86

My behavior? :c

MLE · #87

Contextual reading, can you do it?

The Leader · #88

Where are people making assumptions about Chojin's behavior?

The Leader · #89

Or do you just like to not use names and then reference some "him" from earlier in the thread?

MLE HELP MY I AM NOT THE PSYCHIC LIKE YOU

I DON'T KNOW WHO THE HIS IS WHO YOU ARE REFERRING TO

I HAVE A HARD TIME KEEPING THINGS WITH THE CONTEXT

Dimnos · #91

God! Leader dont you know how to discern the target of a proper noun?! Wait...

MLE · #92

When someone uses a preposition, if they don't re-clarify it, it's referring to the same person.

Dimnos · #93

Yeah but you didnt use a preposition. At least not on this page. The only thing you did to identify your subject was use the words "he" and "his". Not that there is anything wrong with that. Its just a little vague.

The Leader · #94

Good job with the english MLE. Now maybe you can tell me where anyone was making assumptions about Chojin's behavior.

MLE · #95

Sorry, I meant pronoun. I had just gotten up. Within the context of the conversation, the first use is pretty clear as to whom it's referring. The second one uses the same clarification, since nothing changed between them.

Honestly, I just don't see why that was so hard to read when the post I referred to was only two up.

MLE · #96

The funniest one to me is when you assumed he kicked his own father away from the home dinner table (which there isn't any in that house). The other one was implying that he'd be the one to say "

We can't go there, there's smoke in there."
