Good questions; well said, and I like your humor.

YouTube trollin'.....no.I was referrin' to cases where one is finger-trigger happy. Not all filters work. Not everyone has.

Regardin' the definition of "sexually sober." Firstly, not all Webster's are alike; just ask the cajolin' folk. And yes, those folks followin' the books and meetin's - they would need to restart their count.

My point was a simple one (but perhaps profound - how's that for a self-centered egocentric maniac): a fellow is workin' real hard in recovery, say a year or two of meetin's, maybe a weekly chaburah in mussar, perhaps an every day phone conference, avid book reader, maybe a chronic poster - whatever recovery method he's engaged in (as long as he's not fightin' tooth and nail, clenchin' his fists, grittin' his teeth, screwin' his eyes shut, etc.) - if he somehow happens to fall, let's not emphasize the streak endin' and all the good folks come in with words of encouragement that all is not lost. I say (again, as long as there are no obvious loopholes in his recovery method): keep goin'! So the Hell what? Perhaps don't even reset your count and focus on the accumulative count. I have advocated for that in the past that the accumulate count is far more important than the streak.

The guy that hits safely in 67 games but bats 290, is not better than the 340 hitter, who only managed 23 in a row.

I know the argument, but far too many guys are gettin' down after falls durin' a long clean streak.

God speed!

I guess there are different definitions of "battle", I was referring to number 4, which usually doesn't work by me and ends up being a fight "do!" "don't!" "do!" "don....maybe?".....

once I'm there and not doing one of the others, I know that I'm not as sober as I could be.
