Yeah. I made two obvious mistakes on this one. The first was to say "Please choose the one item that best describes you, even if you feel that two or more are appropriate." I also should have included taste or esthetics as an option in the second question.
I also shouldn't have done it at all because I got a flamewar in comments.
Yes, I'm sure that many people would choose both. The reason I did radio buttons instead of check marks was twofold. First, I wanted people to choose their *primary* reason, and many people would answer one of those as primary before the other. The second reason was that if I use checkboxes in a poll I find that far too many people tickybox too many things and I can't make head or tail of the results.
As soon as I saw the quiz, I said "Flame On!". lol
Food is hot button. A former AA sponsor of mine said to me once, "The Disease [of addiction] manifests itself in five primary ways: booze, drugs, food, sex, and money." And my observations and experience have pretty much confirmed that. He died of AIDS btw.
sure, of course no one's sane about those things because they're all directly tied to survival and power (which is just how easily one facilitates their survival). start fucking with the things people need to survive, and we get ugly crazy, fast.
