Guys you heard it here first: You can drink alcohol for 16 hours everyday and it's not addiction.

[–] Darkenfolk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Well yeah, because you are fucking dead. Dying might be the best cure for addiction's known to man.

Pfft. I've drank for 16 hours many a day and I'm not dead.

I think the better language is "you can be drunk 16 hours a day" which, some people are, and they're certified alcohol addicts. So shoving Instagram in your brain the same way is the same disease, different symptoms.
