    Next time please ask for the non-smoking thread, as your non-smoking offends me. Thank you :)

    But at least my non-smoking doesn't kill anyone.

    No, your lack of humor does

    So you stopped into a tongue in cheek thread and sucked the fun out of it for the rest of us?? That was literally the rudest reaction you could have had.

    Im in Central America right now...this is the warning listed on their cigarettes

    Los Componentes De Los Productos Del Tabaco Causan Emfermedad Y MUerte

    It doesn sound anywhere near as bad in Spanish.

    The ingredients of tobacco products cause sickness and death.




    Sounds pretty bad to me.

    Yeah, but if you dont speak Spanish it looks pretty benign. It could say "Smoking this is like riding a unicorn on a sunny day" and I wouldnt know the difference.

    Thanks

    I like smoking, and frankly, I don't want to live to a ripe old age as I never started a pension. Cigarettes are my get out clause.

    someone should tell her she's in the wrong thread. This isn't titled "Get on your soapbox and tell people what they already know"

    I quit smoking cigs at the beginning of the year and I'm glad, but I'll always have my fellow smokers' backs.

    I haven't really needed one today or yesterday until I read the word, "smoking". It passes after a minute though. Today is day 3 and I haven't murdered anyone yet. We'll see how the afternoon works out. :smokin:

    If I could just stop the 2 smokes in the morning anf the smoking on a car ride and the smoking after a meal, and the smoking when I walk the dog and the smoking when I have a drink and the smoking when im bored....

    I could totally quit


    yep i'm totally thinking this same thing!

    that's what I was thinking... maybe people should take a long hard think about what they are doing to themselves before passing judgement on someone else for their decisions...

    LOL Brett and Lisa, I was the same way when i tried to quit at day 4. Work is a *****! And I have to deal with old farty customers and I had like 3 instances where I got so heated I was crying and shaking. I took a brisk walk after each one but it was just too much (same week I started my diet) so that's the day I caved. Hope you're able to push through it!!!!

    Hahah.....I tend to have massive migraines.... last time I quit, I suffered from a migraine for 6 days before I realized it was nicotine withdrawals. I had alllll the fun that goes with migraines too, hospital stay, vomit, crying, you name it.
    I smoked a ciggarette, and it went away.
    I smoked for antother 2 years.... I quit 4 days ago.... with Chantix.... I got the headache lastnight from the withdrawals...
    I am also on Hormone Replacement Therapy from having breast cancer.... so the combination isn't good, I am a hormonal mess craving nicotine!!! :frown:

    Especially those who preach tolerance for other issues. You're either tolerant of others' choices or you're not. Just sayin'.

    Woah, chill out guys. No personally attacking, remember? Don't wanna get the thread killed.

    I'm on day 3 of no ciggies, again. I usually find it much easier if I still allow myself to have one now and then, because if I go with the Last Smoke Forever, I fail. I slipped up this time around and let stress convince me to just have a couple, each day, for a week, and now that the freezer pack is gone, and I'm all antsy. Ah, addiction.

    What kind of smoking are we talking here?
    Easy with that or you'll get this thread deleted! :wink: We need a MFP approved euphemism for this...

  • I actually quit smoking analog cigarettes in April 2009 (woo hoo 3 years!) with the help of the E-Cig. All the benefits that we love of smoking with out the smell of an ashtray, the death, and with more breathing!!
    Right now I am vaping Orange Creamcicle! Mmmmmmm

    Here's a pic of me dolled up in February being a goof and vaping off of the Vitae.

    Enjoy your cigarettes. :sick:

    *SIGHS* There is always one person to ruin the fun for everyone else.

    So much for tolerance and acceptance for all I guess....

    I don't smoke. But congrats to those trying to. It was fun until a TROLL came along. Remember that episode of the SImpsons "Tree House of Horror" with the commercials going everywhere? And the way to get rid of them is to just not look or respond. That's how you make trolls go away. Don't quote em, don't ackowledge the fact that they posted, just don't look. THey get buried that way quick. Now, on to the tongue and cheekness.

    Just had one myself. You can tell yourself either: It's a disgusting habit and I really need to quit OR maaan did I need that!

    Both answers work.

    i've been known to say both in the same breath.


    Yes, yes
