prostitution

The 'illegal' act of paying for sex, although it's 'legally' committed many times in dating. Guy pays for dinner, pays for the movie, girl is flattered by guy's "generosity," so she gives him some ass at the end of the night, which is exactly what he was hoping to get in return for the money he shelled out and why he took her out to begin with. Why it's illegal to just give the girl the money straight up to fuck him that he would've spent on the date anyway is beyond me.

"I don't understand why prostitution is illegal. Why should prostitution be illegal? Selling is legal, fucking is legal. Why isn't selling fucking legal? After all, giving somebody an orgasm is hardly the worst thing you can do to them!" - George Carlin

alcoholism

An addiction to the consumption of alcoholic beverages. In no way, shape, or form is it a disease, despite what those pompous assholes at AA try to tell you. Why the hell every other psychoactive drug in the world gets people addicted, but alcohol magically inflicts a disease, is beyond me. Smokers aren't said to have a disease because they're unable to quit smoking. Drinkers who have the exact same problem shouldn't be tagged as 'having a disease' either, but they do in order to make the AA pricks feel like they're some kind of miracle workers for "curing people every day."

Bob: "I got exactly the news I didn't wanna get from my doctor today, Jim ..."

Jim: "Me too. I recently discovered I have alcoholism and need to get cured. My doctor told me this disease could be fatal if I don't get the necessary treatment to quit drinking."

Bob: "That's nice. My doctor informed me I've got brain cancer. Wanna trade 'diseases?' All you have to do is grow a pair, get some willpower, and stop buying the shit. I wish it were that easy for me. I'll be spending the next several months getting blasted with radiation and probably won't survive. Sorry to hear about your impending battle with quitting drinking though. Good luck, I'm sure it will be a tough road to travel."

Jim: "Thanks, you're a great friend. I'll need all the luck I can get."

Bob: "The apology and wishing luck was sarcasm, dumbass."

Insanity

A ride at the top of the Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas which lives up to its name. It hangs you over the edge of the tower and spins you around and around, and the seats, due to centrifugal force, tilt downward so you're facing the street roughly 1000 feet below while spinning. Not recommended for the weak stomached, for their sake as well as the people walking on the Strip down below.

Next time I make it out to Vegas I'm riding the Insanity. The other rides up there are cool and all, but this one looks just insane.
