appreciate the advice none the less sir.



88

btw.  i still have an unopened pack that i keep with me.  it says NO in big black letters.

makes me think before i light up.

easier to know that i can, but choose not to.


I have had the same pack standing on the fireplace since i quit a year ago.

When i look at the pack and then down in the fireplace i see what i dont want my lungs to look like.

instead of "fore!"  

i can see where it might make a difference.

soo tweety... do you think I am some cretin that doesn't even know what a golf tee it?   I'll have you know that I use em all the time.   they are the little wooden plug thingies that you use to plug vacuum lines while worrking on cars.

88 has made it a whole three days.... wooooweee...  He's a liberal, he won't make a year.   Even if he manages to make a year he will start again some time in the future over any event that get's him all emotional like some liberal losing an election or his boyfriend telling him his shoes make his feet look big or something.  

Even throwing away the cigg lighter in his prius won't help.   All his friends will be sitting at the bar smoking and laughing and looking really cool sucking on their ciggs....

My bet is that when he starts again he won't have the guts to admit it right away.

Alright, I'm in.

I'm at 36 hours now without a smoke.

Alright, I'm cheating a little. I'm using the patch, so I'm still getting my Nic-Fix.

Guys, I cannot stress enough how much the patch helps.

Regardless, I am never going back.

You know what sealed the deal? The whyquit.com websight. I took one look at the pic of that 35 year old guy, dying in that hospital bed, with his beautiful family crying over him. It evoked the images of my father dying almost 1 year ago from lung cancer. The gasping for air in the final days. The pain and suffering.

F*ck this. It ain't worth it.

Stay strong guys. We'll do this thing together.

lasz,

please take your r lee ermy impersonation elsewhere.  

i could care less what you think about me, the subject at hand or my politics, or even your fetishy delusions of what my sexuality is,  but several people here, myself included have been impacted (some of us rather recently) by smoking and/or loss in ways that makes your decorum, or lack thereof most clearly out of bounds.

you werent invited, and unless you feel like participating in a constructive manner, i would appreciate it if you would take your rockemsockem soapbox out the door.

you want a peice of me?

fine.  

you can start your own "i hate 88" thread.  

but not here, and certainly not when you are acting like a total  arse in light of what you clearly lack the capacity to see.

capice'?

martlet... don't be too hard on him.. he is a kid and he is used to his equally inexperianced friends all telling him how bright he is.

as for not knowing anything about the subject.... I smoked 3 packs a day of non filter camels for 20 years.

just friggin quit and stop being a baby about it.

I simply don't believe that you can quit and that you won't have the guts to admit it when you do start again.   liberals are just weak.. It is probly related to genetics or something.

I didn't realize he was a kid.  That explains a lot.

I think most people hate I quit threads. They're almost as stupid as the threads on vidoe game forums asking for medical advice.

So if one starts a thread about how he's quiting dope or tobacco or aces high, and later responds indignately when the reader makes note of the lameness it just excacerbates the mob's drive to bludgeon.

However did you do it without creating a "hey look at me" thread on a public bulletin board?
