Beyond the addiction aspect this shows just how many emotional adolescents there are running around. These people are stunted. They have no concept of reality. Every decision they make is usually a bad one. Every week they are on their way to a club or restaurant since they just can't stand the thought of spending quiet time at home and confronting the ugly reality of who they are. Mary Carey is with that guy because if she was with a good guy she would end up fucking him over and treating him like a mark since she fucking hates herself. Chicks like that always choose the douche bag. The only one that seems to be trying is Rodney King and he's hardly on the show because these reality bottom feeders only focus on the negative characters. These people were never serious minded people in the first place and addiction is a small part of the problem.
