I know, I know



I know I've been using comics a lot lately, but they coincide perfectly with things like this.

The problem is that I fail to see why this is news, especially in this digital age...

What puzzles me is that most sentient, self-aware people will admit that pornography, drugs, alcohol, adrenaline rushes and lots of other things are addictive and should be avoided. There is no such thing as 'trying a little' of an addictive substance or behavior. The unfortunate thing is that self-awareness is a spiritual gift more than anything. Thus, most people are addicts to one or more of the above things and don't even know it. So, you have Switzerland telling its people to be aware of their habits.

.......................

I suppose that it's better to have someone tell you to be wary than to continue in self-destructive bliss.
