What's this?

Yeah...I don't disagree with that at all.


But then we are now talking about certain things being addictive to only certain people, right? Or maybe, MORE addictive is a better way to put it? I just don't love classifying some things as "addictive" because there would really be no end to it. PHX is calling out weed as being addictive (when it's clearly not for plenty of people)...and we are saying it's the player that seems to have the issue. I call that issue will-power...you call it addiction. Potato potato.

To me, there is clearly a class of things that, by trying to quit, you will have big-time physical side effects. That's a distinction in my mind. Plenty of others disagree and that's fine. By the way, point me to the cases of people becoming violently ill if they stop smoking weed. Or eating sugar? I get headaches if I stop drinking caffeine? Nothing happened when I stopped smoking weed.
