The medical model of addiction simply focuses on the recognition of addiction as a bio/psycho/social DISEASE. It stresses the need for life-long abstinence and the use of an ongoing recovery program to maintain abstinence. The medical model makes no claims at all about what should or shouldn't happen to the children…

The medical model of addiction states that addiction is a disease, just like cancer or diabetes, and should be treated as such (by healthcare professionals AND by the general public, family members, friends, etc.)

But... the Las Vegas strip is FULL of homeless people! AC would need to have way more beggars, prostitutes, and people handing out pornographic ads to even compete with Vegas on that level.

I don't know if I'd call that "blowing" so much as "putting in one's mouth for 2 seconds". LOTS of blue balls that night, I assume.

I bet Robin Thicke bites his nails... and that they are disgusting.

Haha I don't know. I think it's a fancy word for "look at with impure thoughts", since that's what Libtards do, obvs. I put this together this morning. Have fun! ;)

"Libtard"... "sodomy"... "double standard".... I got Troll Bingo!

I'd give Rep. Steve Chabot a five... finger slap to the face.

But what does the fox say about having his "Animal of the Summer" title taken from him this year? What does he say? I need to know...

You're absolutely right... it can be hard not to flip out on people online when you're annoyed (again NOT excusing anything he said). I just hope his behavior was a one-time mistake not indicative of who he really is, and I still applaud him for supporting RAINN.

Kinda OT but the Adam Richman thing is REALLY disappointing to me, for obvious reasons, but also because he is (was?) a vocal supporter of the charity I work with- RAINN (the Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network). I wrote an article about RAINN on GroupThink and Adam retweeted a link to it. I had thought he was a…

Aw, very cool! Thanks for the info! I was half-expecting to hear that he let the sudden fame go to his head and became an ass hole. So that's sweet to hear that he helped out his friends. :)

Haha, yes, I agree!

I just spent the last ten minutes searching grammar websites, because your comment made me very curious whether "bald-faced lie" or "bold-faced lie" was more correct. (I had only ever seen "bold-faced lie".) Fun fact! "Bold-faced" suggests a brazen lie, while "bald-faced" suggests an undisguised one. Both are…

Any funny/interesting/juicy McLovin stories from school? I secretly think he's adorable.

Haha, thanks! ;)

I was on VH1's "Flavor of Love", "Charm School", and "I Love Money".

There is no way in hell the girls on this show were paid anywhere near $1000 per episode. My guess would be much closer to $200-300 (speaking as someone who has been on reality TV). But you are right- reality shows are very, very cheap for networks compared to scripted shows.
