Congratulations. I used to get stoned all day every day, then I quit smoking and picked up drinking and got drunk all day every day. Then I quit drinking. I've been 100% sober for months now.
I followed the exact same pattern. Smoking too much and quit it fairly easily. It was also easily replaced with drinking shortly after and that went 10x worse than the smoking ever got.
It's one of those things that is obviously bad and you know damn well you're losing incalculable productivity... but the way the chemical signals flow it just doesn't matter until there is enough negative reinforcement to change the pattern.
It has proven to be the most reliable host on the planet. 2 year old imgur posts are still up and work like a charm while everything else failed and turned many subs into s desert.

I went from the top 10%+ in January to the bottom 30% ever since.
It's been worth it, but took more pain than it should have to finally admit I needed to stop.

Congrats to you as well.

Yeah I had some real wake up calls before I quit. I haven't been happier and more productive ever in my life though.

Congrats on pulling that lever.

Cool. I managed an average of 1-2 drunken weekends per month and not a drop in between for the last 15 years.
But if you were top 10% you probably cant do that and have to keep to bottom 30%.

Yeah there is no throttle... at least the throttle won't last for longer than a month or so.

So how the fuck does it not work half the time?

Most of the time I want to see a pic on imgur it says Image Not Found. It happens so often that I wonder if it is intentional.

Is there any reason at all to believe these numbers?
[–] ExpertShitposter [S] 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
I'm not about to research it in case its off since its just a fun post but if you go to their website maybe they provide sources.

Does the 30% who never drink include children? So many ways to distort statistics.
