Smoking is a nasty, horrible, money-wasting habit.

Most people that I know who have quite, have done so cold turkey. It is the only way that works.

For you young studs who are just starting, quit while you can. If I were you I would spend some time touring a cancer ward and see what it is like to wear a morphine pump until you are dead.

My younger brother is an Oncologist at Mayo Clinic. My other brother picked-up smoking recently and my doc bro sent him video of him telling people that they are gonna die from lung cancer. The ones with the young children are particularly disturbing. Yea, it is real fun watching them cry knowing that their mommies and daddies will never be around to see their graduation.

I dispise smoking and think that it destroys lives. Some employers are also starting to increase and even refuse to insure some people who smoke.

Not so funny now, is it.

I dont smoke much..........but I dip a good amount...all I know is I dont need it but for some reason I do it.......I need to stop

alot of my buddies dip...now THAT is plain sick

same here... its not as dangerous... most cancer from it is in the mouth and unless you ignore it can be removed ok...

smokin is a pretty scary thing... i gotta agree MTs#1...

but ya'll wanna hear something funny... (not that funny really)

I know someone whoes father died a year or two ago...

he was 93, yes i said ninety three... he smoked filterless camels since he was very young age... a few packs a week (he didnt smoke 3 packs a day)...

but anyways... its weird how somepeople are completely immune to the effects and others get cancer after smoking for 3 weeks...

Thanks for the lecture pops, but i think the thread was lookin to see if anyone found anything that really aids in quitting smoking, not saying that smoking is fun or great. so. im not really sure what the "not so funny now is it" thing was about, but.... yah....

just looking for a little support and encouragement, not a lecture.

That was my grandfather right there. Smoked since he was a kid, lived 88 years. At that point, im not sure how much you can attribue it to smoking. LOL. who knows. he mighta have lived to see 89?

Well, i have his blood in my veins, but i think it would be better to be safe than sorry.

2 pack a day habit from 17 till I was 30.I used the patch for about 3 days.It gave me freakin WIERD nightmares,went cold turkey.Its been almost 8 years now.The first month is a beyotch.After that its a cake walk.

I've heard similar stories of people living forever without any smoking-related illnesses. Shoot, my grandma has smoked since she was 15 and is almost 70 with not ONE cancerous tissue in her body. However, even if you KNEW you woudlnt get anything from smoking, think about how much money would be spent in a lifetime on cigs, also how bad you smell when you smoke, and how crappy you feel when you don't smoke. It's just not worth it.

As for those who smoke weed or other drugs(and want them legalized and all that ridiculous BS)....you've got alot of growing up to do.


And the dip...thats more disgusting than smoking...youre chewing sh*t almost literally and the bulge in the bottom lip part just looks retarded. Then you get a cup to spit it into...yeah i bet that turns the ladies on.

one last quote

sorry bro. When youre makin out w/ a girl, usually your eyes are closed so it dont matter how goodlookin she is, I ended up coughing once kissing a girl who smoked while I was in 7th grade...and I've never kissed a smoker since. Worst taste ever.

/rant

I dont smoke but I guess i take what I would of smoked and added it to drinking so... probably worse off.
:beerchug:

Hey, no problem. I can't help it but lecture on the topic, what I preach is what I believe. Most people that I know that have quite simply do it "cold turkey". Most of them generally get motivated from an event in life that scares them.

If people want to smoke themselves to death, that is their own business. Just be sensitive to those that love and care for you and educate yourself on all the consequences.

By the way, I burried a daughter a few years ago to cancer, not smoking related, but that was my life-altering experience. It really is a ****tty way to go. She did nothing wrong and got sick, so I hate to see people throw their lives away.

There will always be those that defy the odds, Just like running out in front of traffic, you might not get hit by a car, but that does not make the behavior safe.

If you want a quitting aide, visit the 7th floor West of Hershey Medical Center. If you can smoke after that, then well, nothing might work.

I think I found a pic of jack when he was younger

:stupid:

all i have to say is yuck...

That Weed Patch is not working for me. I am down to a blunt every other day.

I understand that he has a different opinion, which is perfectly fine with me, but instead of stating reasons why he feels that way, he just out of no where throws an insult. then doesn't even say anything to back up his reasons.

i would if I could affored it..lol

i know

another thread ruined by springstang and/or greg.

you two anal avengers would have butsecks every night if you lived by eachother.

:offtopic: :ban:

Yeah, ban me.
lol
:devil2:

weed(or any drugs) = costs $$ = temporary high(pun intended) = do stupid s*** = in the long run, f***'s you up = you'll get arrested if you're caught with it.

The entire reason you get a high from drugs is bc is f***'s up your system. If anyone thinks that messing w/ your system wont have any long term affects must already be f***ed up! and if anyone reading has done weed for 20+ years and doesnt feel stupid, i guarantee you think slower than you would otherwise. And if youre really doing well after this long, do it for 20 more years and we'll talk. I guarantee you'll be so stupid in the head.

(i know its not related to drugs) like mohammad ali, he was fine his whole career and even a good deal afer, but look at him now, all those hits finally handicapped him down the road. It's just not worth it. I guess we don't think the same. And nothing I say will change your mind.

weed, is like smoking except in smoking you cant get arrested and it wont mess with your head. Theyre both a waste of money and is looked down on in the real world.

that's all I wanted danny ;)

and have you ever done it?

I dont see how your argument is legitimate danny. Springsstang is already terribly stupid. I dont think drugs can make him any worse.

you are f*cking hilarious.

nope. I wont do things that may affect my body later down the road. Whether it will or it wont, it may, and I'm not willing to take the chance

rofl good point...but what do you think got him that stupid in the first place?

I see you are trying to get your post count way back up again. lol

danny you remind me of one of those guys that try to live life so strictly so they'll have a good, healthy, perfect future...but then when the future comes around and your in your 50's and 60's, you'll be sittin there wonderin where your life went, and why you never had any fun....****, I might be dead by then, but I'll die knowing I had a good time in life..especially since I dont really beleive in life after death

i smoke dro and don't believe it should be legalized. I don't think any drug should be legalized. Smoking is smoking whether it's weed, nicotine, heroine, or meth. It's all bad for you. People that do it, know it's bad for you but they still do it. For those that smoke cigs, they know it's bad, but that's why it's called an addiction! I give it up to anyone trying to stop. They say nicotine is one of the hardest drugs to stop. So Jack if your trying to stop.......mad props!!!!:beerchug:

I already passed lance :devil2: I was down by like 200
