I found this read pretty disappointing, mainly because the author fails to define hedonism. Instead, he uses it as a crutch and catch all for pleasure and calls it bad.

A fair assumption is that he defines hedonism as heavy indulgence in sex,drugs, and rock n roll.

If this is the case, the article is basically a ‘don’t do drugs kids’ type of article, with a Viktor Frankl reference to add depth.

That said, as cliche as the article is, it is a nice reminder/PSA that doing hedonistic things isn’t always as fun as it seems, especially not for long.
