I’m shouldn’t have ice cream due to my Type 2 diabetes, but once in a while, I stop at Mc Donalds and get myself a McFlurry with M&M’s. I get a bit sick later, but I find it worth it.

    Exercise. I have post exertional malaise. It basically means I get cell damage from exercise. I went for a hike and I’m regretting it already.

      They are using it in a different sense. Not that they are considered luxury goods by being expensive and associated with higher socioeconomic standing, but that they are a frivolity which is not necessary and which has tangible costs that they feel are justified due to pure pleasure.

        Yeah but new socks are necessary when the old ones are worn out, and honestly, I understand indulging in an ice-cream once in a while but make it something worth it instead of McDonald’s sundae…

    I am not supposed to have anything crunchy, for my oral health demands I get 11 teeth removed with more potentially threatened to decay further. I still got decent teeth to chew and everything, but I have to be cautious.

    Ice Cream as well but not for diabetes, but could be lactose intolerant. It hasn’t really stopped me from eating it from time to time.

    A friend of mine is lactose intolerant and used to eat chocolate anyway, which kind of turned her into a diarrhea time bomb. Usually at most a half hour later she would suddenly get up and run to the bathroom, anything in the way was toast.

      I literally envisioned her running to the restroom and everything between her starting point and the bathroom literally turned into toast.

      Oh I still miss speed. I don’t do it but if everything I’ve tried, that is the one I know would kill me and I still want it.

      The only drug I WOULD do again, without fear, is LSD. I will at some point probably.
