pizza's not junk food if it's done right, IMHO.

I agree, I don't consider pizza junk food. I think my answer was misleading. Krispy Creme donuts, those are junk food. Unfortunatley I gave in and ate two of them yesterday! Damn!

nocoins 09-04-04 09:24 AM

A) nah, dont smoke
B) Drink Way too much, maybe too often
C) I am vegetarian, but sometimes I eat too much junkfood. All in all, I am pretty skinny and I feel healthy!

cripiter 09-04-04 04:32 PM

i smoke 2+ packs a day.
i'm drinking right now.
i'm vegan but i still eat processed foods like microwaveable veggiburgers and what-not cuz i live alone and i only really cook when i have people over.

techone 09-04-04 04:48 PM

a) after quitting nearly 4yrs ago, it's recently turned into the odd rollup on thursday or friday nights at the pub
b) too much! (or is it ever enough?)
c) junk food... maybe 2-3 times a week.
still, I feel i'm in better shape than 90% of the population

Don't drink... don't smoke... what do you--- err... nevermind. :D Sorry... couldn't resist.

there is alot more to do in life other than smoke cigarettes, drink, and eat pizza ;)

gcasillo 09-04-04 09:11 PM

a) Never. Both parents, all my life. Just didn't seem appealling though I love them.
b) Got it all in my sophomore yr. of college. Do occasionally, but it always leaves me feeling bloated. Seems like empty consumption.
c) Hell yes to pizza. Any kind, anywhere.


To quote Dave Barry: "Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."
I love beer (except the part mentioned in b). I LOVE pizza. But I don't like beer with pizza. Just too much going on. I enjoy pizza so much more with a Coke. Anyone else feel this way?

Yes, absolutely. I've only had beer with pizza once, and would not repeat the experience. I like cold beer with things like burgers and brats, but not pizza.


and...
1) Don't smoke. Expensive, smelly, too detrimental to health with not enough benefits (assuming tobacco).
2) Drink? Sure, I love me some ethanol. I've got a taste for dark beers, Guinness in particular, although a pint of that is like taking a shot and eating Thanksgiving dinner. I'll take some rum or a white russian anyday. I really only drink about once or twice a week now (health) and don't get drunk more than once a week, generally.
3) I recently became vegetarian (for health reasons, I'm no animal-rights yoga-mat-strap chump) and only eat something greasy about once a week now. Already feeling much better.

Wheres the fun in that? Like having wings without the hot sauce, or tatter tots without the gravy.

Thylacine 09-05-04 05:31 PM

Come ooooon, where are questions D) and E) ?

D) How many coffees a day do you drink?

E) Have you stopped doing Crack yet?

A) Smoke (Cigarettes)

C) Eat pizza (or equivalent form of junk food) 4 days a week

i do all three but I'm working on #1. Funny thing is I'm in great shape

A) still -too mcuh
B) Hell yeah!
C) When the mood strikes me. I keep losing weight...

jfmckenna 09-06-04 09:18 AM

1)used too but might have one if question 2 kicks in hard at the right party, so what?

2)yes professionally. put it too you this way, I'm in a rock band.

3)what the hell is wrong with pizza?

That was my reaction. Ketchup and tator-tots I've seen but never gravy.

p3ntuprage 09-06-04 01:15 PM

tator-tots?

a) no
b) cider, whenever I can afford it.
c) I've lived on prepackaged pasteries out of vending machines and mountain dew since i was in high school. together they replace at least 5 meals a week. And i eat pizza whenever I can. It was the only thing keeping me from going vegan, until I discovered the joys of cheeseless pizza.

(A) Quit a month+ ago. Bought cheap bike with left over money after first paycheck with no smokes to buy. Relapse here and there (bum/buy a smoke or two every now and then...no full days/packs)

(B) Rarely


(C) Frequently....that'll come when the smoking is firmly taken care of.

I'm in bad shape...very much overwieght (235lbs) and out of shape (techie/programmer - 'nuf said). I am amazed at how a 2km trip on my first day 3-4 weeks ago nearly killed me and now 20km with lots of little hills feels great! I'm pushing to make 50km comfortably before the snow flies. My wife is about two weeks behind me in the training cycle but I'm having a great time showing her how easily and quickly you improve!

Alexi 09-06-04 05:34 PM

A) 2-4 rollie a day, if not rollies I smoke gaulouise filterless. Why do I think this is healthier
B)i used to drink about every night, perhaps once every week now.
C) I cook lunch and dinner almost every night. A meal is not a meal with out broccoli

Come ooooon, where are questions D) and E) ?

D) How many coffees a day do you drink?

E) Have you stopped doing Crack yet?
D) 2 quatro iced Americanos with mint syrup
E) gave up the crack but love that adderol!

cavit8 09-06-04 06:07 PM

a) no cigs - IMO an utterly pointless thing to smoke.

b) The occasional ale or stout - Current favourite is Hobgoblin Ale

c) Pizza not as often as I'd like. I make a kick-ass pizza; I've got a pizza stone and everythiong.

d) caffeine way down to one cup of micro-roast /day

e) crack's next on the list...

joeprim 09-06-04 06:14 PM

I smoked a pip for a bunch of decades - quit 3 years ago
How can you eat without wine
I don't have pizza very often, but don't consider it junk food. iIf I could figure out how to cook it on my grill I'd eat it more often.
