Your Addictions

[The Penguin]

This post is for anyone wants to openly share the type of addictions they have. My only rule is not judging someone over type of addictions they have.

I know one of my biggest addictions is my collecting toys including doll figures. It started last year when I got this current full time job. Every week at my local comic book store to look for something new to add to my collection. Below is some of the collection I have.

A few weeks ago I joined a new site of people collect dolls and action figures. Most of my life now is based on that site. I can view 1000's of photos of people collection every day. They have over 1.5 million photos so it something that will keep me busy for some time.

I had many comment I should give up this type of collection. However, I have no interest listening to anyone for this type of request.

That's actually a cool collection.

I collect things as well; I had never thought of it as an addiction though I suppose it may very well be.
Your collection is very nice

I get easily addicted to video games, but only play one at a time. Right now it's all about the online card game Hearthstone. I don't just play it every day for hours - I watch other players stream it, I read various relevant sites, I get very sore when I lose in ranked mode, and I talk about it to everyone (even those who don't play it).

Hey awesome collection, Penguin. I noticed the Leonardo ninja turtle; I have a similar Michelangelo figure but it's not part of a collection. I do have a bunch of Game of Thrones action figures though, I see you got some!

 

[The Penguin]

Hey awesome collection,

Thanks

I do have many TMNT action figures. Later in the summer I will install more wall shelves so I can show more of my stuff.

I am addicted to books, I read about three a week. All the money I spend on flimsy paper is rather ludicrous!

This, and nicotine. Probably sugar to a degree too, although not as bad as I used to be. Pop figures, although only ones I'm interested in, rather than having to own every single one that exists.

Smoking.

Music, I suppose you could say. I always have music playing. In the shower, walking/travelling anywhere, when I read, when I go to bed.

I can become addicted to people aswell, which is as unhealthy as the smoking so I try to manage that one particularly.

You could call your collecting an addiction, or an obsession, or simply an interest. Which are you most comfortable with?

I'm addicted to coffee. I drink two cups a day.

Sometimes I smoke but I can stop by simply deciding to and not smoke for months or years. I'm not sure if that qualifies an addiction--I just think I smoke sometimes simply because I want to.

I like to have something sweet (besides my girlfriend) every day so perhaps I'm addicted to sugar but most likely it's the high-fructose corn syrup that's in my favorite cookies.

Only two? I drink like 8 or 10. But I drink decaff. I drink it because I like the taste.

I NEED my two cups of coffee! They are a MUST have. And they have LOTS of caffiene

Much better than digital books. No batteries required.

I'm hooked on my Kindle myself, I hardly read analog books any longer.

How many you have so far?

How many you have so far?

Not tonnes, partly because of the cost and partly because of having nowhere to put them

The Amiibos are @VenomousAlbino's ongoing collection of the Smash Bros ones.

Of course I have forgotten to mention my Internet addiction
Coffee as well.

My addiction is drinking, I drink three nasty daddy's a night. It helps me to internalize myself so I can logicallize the events of the day, and get a good night sleep.
