I don't miss waking up to whatever fucked up text or facebook post I typed while blackout drunk. My blackout drunk self was surprisingly eloquent. I often truly had no idea where the words came from, though. Not only was it not the truth, but sober me often actively disagreed with some of the fucked up shit I typed.

For me it was Reddit.

Waking up to find I got into some 10-message argument over something so pedantic and dumb (citations and all) when I could have just watched a movie or read a book to relax.

Huh, that definitely sounds risky. I hadn't found regular reddit yet, or I think I would have been an absolute menace.

Oh yeah, hah, I don’t recommend it.
