are you suggesting that caffeine is not a drug?
No he's saying that withdrawals have nothing to do with it. It doesn't need to be addictive. Most pharmaceutical drugs for example don't have withdrawal effects.
Anything that changes the chemical make up of the body is a drug. Therefore food is a drug.
No a drug is something that alters normal bodily function. Digesting food is a normal bodily function so it's not a drug.

Indeed. And one might argue that things like coffee and beer walk the line as far as drugs go. They are drugs, sure, but to put such a connotation on caffeine as you are, captain, is a bit silly.

Can you give an example of something that is not a drug, yet has withdrawals? The way that I see it:
some substances are drugs. not all drugs cause withdrawal symptoms. all substances that cause withdrawal symptoms are drugs.
I would love to learn that this is wrong.

considering that absence of these things kill you, not just make your live miserable for a time, I don't think these are drugs.
Well....you asked us to name somethign that was not a drug that still had withdrawal effects.
you know what I mean. though... you're just being a smart ass.
A smarter ass than you, it seems.

I try not to be an ass... though, I think that the majority of us (people) are asses from time to time. You know exactly what I mean, I am sure.
True, you're not an ass, you're an elk.
