>favorite drink
A nice nut brown or amber ale, an IPA if the mood strikes me. Otherwise a spicy black tea.
>favorite drug
Nicotine, mostly for frequency and dependency. My most valuable experience on a drug was while on DMT. I've also had some pretty crazy 2C-E trips. I used to smoke copious amounts of weed too, but now I get anxiety and would probably try killing myself if I took psychedelics. It's been 4 years since I touched any and I value the times that I did them well, but it should remain in that period of my life.

I'm obsessed with cutting my nails. The moment any white appears on the end I have to cut or nibble it off. Years of this habit have caused most of my nails (both hands and feet) to be partially in-grown.

+ for Fahey. My favourite by him has to be The Great San Bernadino Oil Slick, closely tied by Live in Tasmania

That's an old world sleeping habit, a pre-Industrial Revolution thing. I am either full of admiration or irrationally envious.

i'm so sleepy i sleep so much and my response latency suffers

i got a sleep study done and everything is normal except i have four times the waking periods for a normal adult but no apnea

other than that i pride myself in being inconsistent and having no habits (i actually see a shrink for this)

fahey so good and the only reason i bought a guitar

The Vegetarian or The Sun Also Rises, I couldn't choose between these two.
Definitely the Gorillaz self-titled album. Although Miami Nights 1984 entire catalogue and Summer Nights by Esprit are contenders.
Coca-Cola as far as soft-drinks go and Hofbrau Hefeweisse for alcoholic drink.
Caffeine.
Whenever I walk through a door or sometimes at random I pat my left-front pocket with my left hand then my front-right pocket and back-right pocket with my right hand, in that order.

I like Fahey, but I've never been a major fan.

"Romance" from Prokofiev's Lt. Kije Suite. I especially like the first half of this piece -- its melancholy but always lends me a sense of exploration.

Cocaine combines the exhilaration of confirmed mutual sexual desire, the euphoria of repeated victories, the intensity of a near death experience, and the invulnerability of physically fit youth in its first stage, and then it levels out. The second stage is a subdued version of the first, but including a strong compulsion to take more cocaine to avert the diminishment of the first stage. The come down is often the inverse of the first stage, a form of conscious anhedonia typically coupled with a mixture guilt, paranoia, or whatever your particular brand of neuroses deliver.


The ratio of these stages weighs heavily towards the second and third stages with repeated use.

If I were cocaine and I read this post I would feel so bad about myself

just but the 3rd lisa game there

Most people who use it feel that the highs outweigh the lows. There is a limited amount of time where this is a sustainable perspective, but while one has it cocaine is invaluable.

I read Ted Kaczinski's manifesto once and took it too seriously, I have become obsessed with the spiritual naturalism of the kind I found in Moby Dick and it has become combined with a growing resentment of modernity. Currently working myself up to living self sufficiently and rehabilitating from internet related degeneracy

it's a little personal because it's the book that got me in to literature, but it just captures the essence of a time and generation perfectly, the prose is minimalist and beautiful, the vibe is tangible. it carries the whole lost-generation sadness thing so fucking well, all in the subtext. I mean just read the ending. nothing's ever left such an impression on me.

The way it was written and the subject matter combine to create a very real experience. I've been and done the same things as the characters in the novel. Not literally, I've never been to Spain even let alone a bullfight. But I've had those same trials. The closeness of my male friends bonding over mutual silence in nature. The want that comes over you as a young man in love with a woman you can't have for one reason or another. The endless party of young adulthood where you have obligations but they matter little because the last shreds of invincibility still remain in your soul left over from childhood. It's honest and true, every word. I think that any man who cannot connect with this novel on a deep level is no man at all.
