What can be qualified as addictive?
Can something be addictive without ever leading anyone into "addiction"?
Anyway, take the poll.

Most addictive for me are laziness and internet.
Least addictive are marijuana and online games, both of which I haven't done in over a year.

you know what pisses me off with the word addiction? once you're addicted to something , that something is tainted for life that just ruins things! i think addicts need to get out of addictive situations without actually going through the phase of ' i am an addict ' - well mildy addicted people , you know what i mean... like people who drink 8-9 pints a day like nothing - during the morning noon etc, kinda like me - a medical man would call me addicted but then even if i am - i'm not , you see none the less this isn't about me i was talking about addiction!

"Addiction" is a set of subjectively defined behaviors.
In the traditional sense, certain substances are more likely to result in these behaviors, and are thus, labeled "addictive". Of course, not everyone who uses an addictive substance becomes addicted. Not every who used coke in the 80's is "addicted", they simply stopped when doing coke ceased to be cool. Many soldiers in vietnam used heroin, but stopped completely when they returned to the U.S.
Addiction is a set of behaviors, and is distinct form "physical dependence" which has (as the name implies) a physiological component.

did anyone forget tobacco? insidious weed that entangles your life in its vile grasp and squeezes you until your body is filled with growths that choke of air as you strangle to death?
