I do hope that makes sense.

Makes total sense, I see plenty of sheep daily.

And Yes, I do know your question wasn't directed at me...but I couldn't help it!

Phew, ya had me worried there thought I hadn't mis quoted

I just had to do it John.
I don't drink, I don't smoke and I don't 'bother' with women.
I like a laugh, but don't need alcohol to make things funny.......I have never smoked, and my dad died of lung cancer...not something I would want my worst enemy to go through.......and I have been hitched fo nearly 45 years.
It sounds boring, but it isn't...not in the least!
I'm just off now to see if I have enough Brasso to polish my halo

It's for the same reason people go on fairground rides but more extreme - you ever been on fairground rides Jaysay? Why bother doing that for a thrill then! Again the issue of the drugs that people take they all have different effects and people take them for different reasons/results!

Usually because there a numpty, and lead a very shallow life if they feel the need to push poison through their veins just for kicks, and no was never a fan of fairgrounds far better things to do with my time.

I can understand the thrill of fairground rides, and I have done that at times, but I don't think fairground rides are addictive....some of them might be a tad dangerous, but they are regulated(in that they have to comply with HSE regs)....they are unlikely to have a detrimental effect on the rest of your life or your exisiting family.......it is unlikely that you would rob from family, friends or strangers in order to get a fairground ride.....it is unlikely that you would recruit youngsters to get them hooked too, so that some fairground baron can manipulate their life.....No, I understand what you are saying, but the analogy you have used is not a very appropriate one.

People who take drugs do it to escape the mundanity of their lives, but there are other safer ways to do this.

Two people can take the same drug and it can have totally different results......we are all unique beings, and react to substances in different ways........drugs have long term effects, one of the more serious ones is death(because the unscrupulous drug dealers will 'cut' drugs with all kinds of harmful substances, just so that they can make loads of money...they don't care about your health...only you can do that).....some of the people that I have come into contact with don't die, but some of them wish they had, because the mental illness they suffer from is life destroying, without actually causing death.

I take no medications prescribed or otherwise.
If I am prescribed medication for anything, I make sure that I know and understand what I am taking, its benefits and its side effects.
There is only one person can safeguard your health and well being........that is YOU!
