Spendaholic. I can't stop spending money> I only wanted to check my e-mails but now I've ordered a game off of play.com. I really need to reign my spending in.

Anyway NSG. What are your vices?

Most lately buying props and magic tricks.........I can say that they are "professional expenses" but really, I'm just spending too much on them.

I spend way too much time reading bad fan-fiction about shows I remember from when I was a kid. And way too much time on NSG.

I consider frequenting this forum to be something of a vice.

Procrastination. I should either be working on my presentation of helping my mom clean (it's Thanksgiving here so I'm visiting my parents) and I'm not doing either.

I'm not too bad with spending money. I went shopping for something other than absolute necessities for the first time in six months (at least) a couple of weeks ago and spent over $100, but some of that was necessities (shampoo, conditioner, food) while some of the other stuff was things that I've been needing for a while (gym clothes including a sport bra and gym bag... and athletic socks... I joined an ultimate frisbee team so I figured it was time for proper gear). I'm probably going shopping this week to get an outfit suitable for a presentation since I have to give one and being over dressed is better than not being dressed up enough.

Hmm... takeaway whore.

Brings a whole new dread to takeaways arriving two hours late and cold

I play my Xbox 360 more than I should.
And I spend way too much money on my dirt-bike and gear for it.

For me, let's see:

Booze. Lying. Possibly Porn.

But hey, at least I didn't spend money on an icon only for it to be stolen by flying monkeys :p

Cars. I already own three, and I still want more. I also collect weird stuff for the hell of it; a couple of weeks ago I bought an old accordion at a garage sale for two bucks. It still works (mostly). Also found a set of Star Trek: TNG collectible saucers at the same garage sale. Mint condition, five dollars.

Sounds like you have a case of:

Make your own, cuts the costs. That's what I do.

I don't actually spend my money on a whole lot. The last two months the only things that I've bought have been a new snowboard (it is really, really nice and I needed it, like more than air or water) and a gas guzzling Silvarado pickup to off set my little Ford Escort. The pickup won't actually cost me any money other than what I payed for it however as it gets to sit the whole winter until I go and unclog the fuel lines this spring. How's that for fuel efficiency?

I would, for certain, die horribly if I could afford anymore booze than I consume nowadays.

I spent too much money on eBay recently, myself.
I also tend to procrastinate and eat too much sugar.

I couldn't help but notice that the overwhelming majority of NSG didn't post in this thread. This can only mean two things:


Most NSG regulars do not have any flaws serious enough to be identified as vices.

Most NSG regulars have good reason to hide their horrible misdemeanors from the public, since the authorities are still looking for them.


What would be the most logical answer?

Alcohol, cigs, other substances, having a good time.

Alcohol, caffeine, and the word "fuck." (Not actual fucking, unfortunately, as Vice #1 is pretty effective at keeping me from getting much in that department.)

Music used to be a vice of mine, but then I was enlightened of the magic of torrenting. That's saved me a couple thousand dollars at least.

That most of us steer clear from Londim's threads until we're drawn in by morbid curiosity.
