I would suggest losingers "sorry I cant spell" This will help you get threw those hard times at the beginning. After 5-10 days you should be good to go with no help.

fast food and other crap we put in our bodies probably kills more than cigarettes. you want to make that illegal too?

I never said I wanted to outlaw cigarettes. I don't. I just think it's ridiculous how for some reason this deadly product could be allowed to be freely consumed by the public while other drugs which don't kill people are illegal. Also note I'm not advocating legalizing all drugs. I'm just noting how seemingly ridiculous it is that we are being protected from other supposedly dangerous drugs which could kill you - while a product is freely sold that is guaranteed to massively increase your chances of getting cancer, lung disease, and is known freely to be physically and mentally addicting as well as physically harmful

I say let ppl do whatever they want. If alcohol is legal why should anything else be illegal considering alcohol has by far the most destructive effects of any other drug. Someone addicted to alcohol is going to more behaviorally destructive to society than someone addicted to heroin. The difference is that since coke/crack/h/ etC. are ilegal they are more expensive and ppl do more degenerate things to get them but the effects of the "high" aren't going to be any worse. You can drive a car on one; you can't drive 12 beers deep. If you want to destroy your body (i.e. meth) go ahead. I could give a [censored] if 95% of the population degened and OD'd because that choice is their's to make and if anything is cleaning up the trashy gene pool that is the human race. I'd rather drive next to someone high on pretty much anything rather than someone drunk as [censored].

I'd go as far as to say that as technology advances we are counteracting nature and natural selection. The quality of the human race is becoming increasingly stratisfied rather than improving because people that shouldn't be reproducing are.

I don't like smoking because I play poker and there are smokers there. The smoke is annoying and I wear a mask (a simple filter mask, not the gas mask kinds). I don't have asthma or anything but the smoke sucks.

On the other hand, this makes me harder to read.

Bonus! Wearing a filter mask: supernit?

I've always been greatful to my mother for smoking while I was young, which killed my desire to ever start. She quit a year ago after 30+ years. Congrats on quitting, OP.

$15k a year on cigarettes? That's 10 packs a day at $4 each.

I wonder what your mom was actually concealing from your family.

I gave up 8 months ago. Cold Turkey. I realised i was 28 and I had been smoking for 14 years which was half my life!!!lol. SO i got a bad flu and then just stopped. I have put on some weight since then. Although I was skinny to begin with.

[the crabs]

The problem with me is I started smoking before I started drinking. Now I need cigarettes when I drink. If I chug 3 beers back to back and don't light up a cigarette, I'll puke. Well hey I love smoking anyway.
