Drink and a Smoke?

You could meditate.

Not in my environment. Too loud, too dangerous. I need to be aware at all times.

Lack of money and I'm also legally banned from leaving.

How do you mean? You're in prison? What country are you in anyway?

Never was in prison, never got sentenced for anything, never was in court. I'm not a criminal which is one of the reasons for being in this situation. But it's pointless to tell which country I am from and what got me in this situation, you wouldn't believe me. All I wanted to say is that I smoke cigarettes to calm my nerves.

when you say "banned from leaving", leaving the city you're in or your country?

Both. But it doesn't matter.

Doesn't matter? How can it not matter @Hermit ? How can that be legal? Are you not a citizen? How are citizens banned from moving around their own country? What's the big deal in telling us which country you're from?

How can that be legal?

Everything is legal if there's a law justifying it. Everything.

I only tell my full story to people who (barely) survived the worst regimes, they are familiar with this special combination of insanity and evil. Those are the only ones who can understand. Your question proves that you don't belong to this group (just like I did before all those things happened to myself). You would either refuse to believe me ("This isn't possible in such a country") or pull the just-world fallacy ("You must have done something to deserve this"). And no, I'm a native citizen. Whatever, it doesn't matter.

okay, whatever........i won't let it matter to me

 

[user 191197]

That's what I said. It doesn't matter.

a) I'm not a big drinker, but I enjoy a good whiskey, burboun or cider. My favourite drink for an evening's relax is a Godfather (my version) which is 50/50 Disaronno (Ameretto) and Jameson Whiskey on ice with a few cuts of strawberry. The original comes with a glazed cherry, but I ran out of them one night and used a strawberry. I sometimes add a little no-sugar coke to top of the glass.

b) I don't smoke cigarettes. My father died in 2014 of cancer after almost 60 years of smoking heavily, but I do like to have the occasional cigar, usually when I go camping, and with a good whiskey. I'm no aficionado on the subject and only buy mild and not too expensive ones.

Do you have a favourite drink and/or cigar?

I'm a wine lover, but do love a good sweet whiskey and Ginger Ale or Coke.
