I don't generally drink alcohol, and I'm increasingly coming to the conclusion that this is decently based on not wanting to be cliche. I didn't like the culture it was associated with early on, and that has carried forward with some additional, marginally more justified layers. I also dislike the sound of water pouring into a coffee cup because of how aestheticized it is. I feel predictable. Maybe I drink tea in part because I don't want to be a normal coffee drinker.
Well, you got me to stew in this more than usual, staring at uncomfortable truths. There's a through-line of counter-culture in all of my actions, at least a little, and I know it. It was probably more detrimental to me in the past, and now I'm not sure what to make of it.
