    I mean… sure, there are similarities between the activities in the sense that they’re all escapism in one shape or another, but I wouldn’t associate American Pie with Cow & Chicken* (edited in as a better example, as they even share a certain kind of lewdness), for instance. Nor would I think that a KitKat is the same as a joint.

    It’s always all down to brain chemistry and changing it through various external stimuli/substances in essence, but I strongly believe that each type of escapism and escapist stimulus generate their own, very specific effects.

    Adults are just children, though, yes. 100% agree with you on that!
