It's the weirdest thing in the world...

Oh damn, that's really cool! I'm horrified by cigarettes, cigars, and smoking because of life experiences, so any way to get smokers to stop getting lung cancer and maybe even quit all together is great.

I smoked for 12-15 yrs, 2-5 packs a day...3 on average...and not light *** cigs either...100's, menthol, and tons of 'em. Quitting was the best thing I ever did.
And I quit cold turkey...with the help of lots...and I mean LOTS of alcohol and munchies. But, I do not really recommend that method. Drinking makes you want nicotine even more.
Good luck. Its best for you in the long run. Emphysema sucks!!

I quit cold turkey about 6 years ago...maybe 7. I don't even remember anymore. I've been tempted every once in a while, but I feel it's been relatively easy to resist (even though my wife still smokes).

My mom is a horrible chain smoker, 3 packs a day. I hate cigarettes and find it hard to even be around people who smoke, unless I'm in a pool hall or bar then i just accept it, its a dumb habit and has given lung disease to many people on both sides of my family.

Meh, I smoke, but i'm not a heavy smoker by any means. It'll take me anywhere from 2-5 days to empty a pack and on top of that, I don't smoke normal cigarettes very much, but I smoke cloves and the occasional black & mild (of which I don't inhale). I don't walk around going nuts if I have not had a smoke for 2, 3or 4+ hours though. Like when I had my wisdom teeth taken out, I didn't smoke for nearly 3 weeks and didn't have any cravings (I know I know "great time to quit"). But in all honesty, I do enjoy smoking..esp. when out with friends and having a drink and whatnot. Is it still bad for me? Yeah. But I feel I could be doing worse and that i'm not really doing something that's crazy unhealthy.

Yeah I was almost exactly like you Mike. But then on a hot summers day I decided I didn't feel like another fag and have stopped since.

I've never actually tried a cigarette. I've had B&M's though but that's technically a cheap *** mini-cigar.

I tried the electronic cigarette this past weekend and never smoking a cigarette before, I wasn't sure what to expect but the idea behind it was pretty cool.

I should get one of those e-cigs and use it here at work....i bet my co-workers would freak thinking I was smoking at my cube :lol:

That would be pretty cool. They have different flavors as well and also offer an e-cigar version as well.

Very smart move, for a litte motivation, take the money you would spend daily on cigarettes and stick it in a jar, use it to save up for miata goodies! Will mount up quickly.

Stay tough

I quit smoking what seems like a lifetime ago. One of best things I ever did for myself.


Personally, I think smoking is disgusting. I cannot stand the smell, the taste, the idea of wasting so much money. I don't know how I did it for years. I tried a cig not too terribly long ago after a LOT of drinking and even then, it was soooo gross.


I did the money thing when I quit. I was a poor college student and that money really came in handy. Once I did it, I couldn't believe what my habit was costing me.

if you live close to discover mills or mall of ga i suggest the quantum cigarette.. it doesnt look like a cig but there product is way better. its the same price but the refills are CHEEEEEP and its not run by money hungry Persians... so go that rout.. i tryed those today and tryed to retun mine to get one... but alas... to late... but hey in 48 hours ive had 1 real cig and thats because my atomizer was ****ed up from dropping it the other day but the guy as to not lose coustomers (because i would have stood there all day and told ppl to not wast there time) he gave me a new one and 2 free packs of cartages.

i just wanna get out of the 2 pack a day routine... and so far so good... and the ladies... LOVE IT!

Yep. So many girls loooooooooove when a guy smells good, I know I sure do. And cigs don't smell good. I mean why do men spend $90 on a bottle of cologne? Because it drives the girls crazy.

You really managed to get down 2 packs in a day? That's impressive, what were you smoking? Couldn't have been reds or your throat would have fallen out by now.

I agree, I hate they way it smells. Smells like mold.
