freeloader

A freeloader is someone who exploits chances to get free stuff whenever possible.

1) Lil' Kid John never did learn any manners. He especially had a hard time figuring why he shouldn't hog all the candy from the free candy bowl at the shop.

2) Jack had all the connections he needed and knew where all the parties were. Thus every night he didn't have to pay for the alcohol nor the dinner. Nobody liked Jack.

addiction of choice

A addiction of choice refers to something that is not physically addicting. Normally it is meant as a joke, asking what your favourite drink is.

1) Cigerettes is not a addiction of choice, since your body gets addicted to it.

2) Cola can be somebody's addiction of choice.

3) Dr. Pepper is MY addiction of choice. ;)
