    Have you murdered anyone yet? Pics?

    No, but paid someone at the trump rally I went to with the money I would have used to smoke

    Cold turkey guy here going on 6 years. Grin and bear it. Still enjoy a cigar once in a blue moon. That is it.

    I do miss entertaining my boys in public by rolling cans of Copenhagen snuff on the floor. Surefire way to get seated quickly in a family restaurant.

    Just sack up and stop.

    Stop pretending it's some impossible task. You don't need Chantix or gum or patches, just some willpower.

    After 5 days, you should have the upper hand.

    Spoken by someone who has never smoked anything but a fuckin clove in his life.

    For Me it's easy peasy until it's drinkin time. And for those nights, its a nic tablet and an e-cig.

    Not everyone is a pussy like you are, Sally.

    I smoked Lucky Strikes or Camel non-filters and chewed Copenhagen.

    Don't worry though, some day your balls will drop.

    By a mile. 332 picked a tough smoke to leave behind.

    Camel actually changed their cigarettes in 2008. The new ones didn't taste as good so I switched to Marbs. Lucky Strike filters are the best but you gotta go out of country to get them.

    ..besides drinking bleach?

    Cold turkey. Tried other ways and it didn't work. I was one cranky SOB for a week or more but I haven't smoked in almost 10 years.
    I'm not sure I've ever agreed with Sleddogg before, but I do here. You'll be looking to tear someone's head off for a few days, but if you power through it, you can quit - and without a drug with freaky side effects like Chantix, or weaning yourself with patches like you wean a dog.

    If you decide you're going to do it, you can. Don't look for an excuse why you "need a smoke" on day 2. You don't. Once you quit, you'll wonder why you smoked butts in the first place. I smoked or chewed Copenhagen for over 20 years, and I haven't had a chew or smoke in 5 years, and never even think about having one now.

    Those fucking things kill people, and there's no good buzz to justify the risk.
    dflea,

    It's that whole life experience thing. We do learn a few things getting older.

    I never had an addiction to cigs but still got a vape pen. They can be pretty fun and still get you buzzed as fuck, taste 100 times better, and are a lot better for you. Some of the higher watt ones are like pocket hookahs. I know a lot of people who quit smoking by using them and tapering down the nicotine amounts. Very fun to use when drunk or stoned.

    I will probably quit soon as I just started working out again after an old knee injury flared up. Never realized how much they fuck up your lungs until I stopped running everyday and tried to get back into the shape I was in before. Don't think I'll ever give up the occasional cigar, though.

    New study out says quitting cold turkey is the most effective way to quit.

    Too bad salemcoogerpussy is too soft to take on a cigarette.


    How you doin' 332?

    This isn't meant to be discouraging, but life sucked for me for several weeks. If you don't feel magically better today, stick with it. Cravings will definitely become less frequent, just might not happen as soon as you hope.

    Our standard measure back in the late great AID's fearful 80's was "if they smoke, they fuck'.

    Always proved true.

    Watching dflea over compensate for a lack of a certain god given trait is always special.

    Almost as special as watching a gutless fuck like you make excuses for not being able to quit smoking.

    The trait you lack is knowing when you should shut the fuck up and go away.

    I never understood this saying.

    Does this mean if they smoke they will poke you with a big black strap on?

    I prefer my women to be poked, preferably by me.

    Therefore I say ...

    If they smoke, they'll let you poke.

    Ergo, the more correct "if they smoke, they fuck'.
