There's a quote attributed to Elizabeth Taylor that goes like this:
"The problem with people who have no vices is that you can be sure they're going to have some pretty annoying virtues."
And, god, isn't that true? We're no huge fans of goody-two-shoed tattle-tales. And for that matter, give me a tragic or anti hero over a perfect one any day. I can't stand Superman (this is Brittany talking so if he has any violent fans out there, please let Tynan survive.) Ever since I was a kid I had a crush on David Bowie and James Dean (and I know I'm not the only one). Vices are what make people interesting.
And we're not just talking tragic flaws. Huge immoral sins? Totally interesting. Tiny flaws in character? Just as interesting. There's something almost disturbingly ritualistic in the way some people bite their fingernails.
Anyways, today your prompt is "a vice". Yours, someone else's, a character's, vices in general. Have at it and link us to it! We had some awesome writing, lovely art and photos, and a very nostalgic jazz tune yesterday. We're loving all your work!
