Geeze... I would join ya but in comparison I will just light a candle. : ) Those fires look nice and warm... just don't think I want a smore that taste like burned butt's. GOOD NIGHT ALL.

Here are my 2,299 added to the fire!!

Thanks everyone! It is great celebrating milestones- even if I forget!!! Which I did! Newbies: Once upon a time 7 years ago- I counted every second that passed since I put out that last cigarette. Then every minute. Then every hour. Days. Weeks. Months. Years. Somewhere along the way I stopped counting. Keep your daily NOPE pledge. Post an SOS. Your seconds will grow to minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and then years. Your bank account will be happy. As will your body & mind. Yep to NOPE every dang day! L4L

NOPE!!

Nope.... I am better than the addiction

Nope! (Beautiful tree @Cbdave!)

G’day NOPE .....Not One Puff Ever.... (replace Ever with Min,Hour, Day as required).

Add my 36,935 to the fire! Note to self: Don’t hang around and play with it, you might get burned.

Take care @MLMR! Take care to ground and strengthen yourself daily. Get up. Get out. Go forward. Baby steps if you’ve gotta. Then you come back here ready to take giant leaps and bounds to get this addiction done and gone for good. We will be here waiting.

NOPE!

Never give up....giving up.. Hope we see you soon x

here's 15,230 to put on the flame.

Tossing on my 15,249 cancer sticks to stoke the fire.

NOPE!

G’day How do you treat smokers. Yes I know the line. Hate the smokes not the smokers. But there are times….. Friend of a friend every time he sees me offers me a cig just to hear me say I don’t smoke. Then proceeds to lecture me on smoking and freedoms! As If. Last time he tried it again, trust me, was the last. He pulled some cigs forward in the pack and fanned them in front of my face. Thanks I said and took one. Could I have one for later and grabbed a secound. Offered my a light. No thanks. Don’t need it. Proceeded to tear the first cig apart in front of him. Of course the first words were heh don’t waste them. Of course I apologised . Said I was sorry. I don’t smoke. Snapped the secound in half and handed it back. Recon he knows now I’m a Non smoker. No more of this ex smoker. I don’t have to explain myself to anyone!

I can understand your angst at this idiot who was clearly baiting you for his own amusement with no regard to your feelings so, I think your actions were not only appropriate but perhaps 'restrained (no punching him in the face?) In general though, as most smokers aren't complete A-holes like your acquaintance was so although I loath smoking as much as anyone, I don't harass smokers in any way. I just tend to try and avoid them where ever possible. I was just like them once and truly didn't realize many offensive issues I was exposing non-smokers to. I was completely shocked and embarrassed the first time I got a whiff from someone walking past me after just finishing a smoke - YUK I almost fainted when I realized "THAT WAS ME BACK THE DAY " I was mortified that I had exposed God knows how many people to that stench over all the years I smoked so, that's part of the reason I never engage smokers with any sort of criticism. They don't know any better in many cases. Of course, this is NOTHING like your situation @Cbdave. What happened to you amounted to an unprovoked attack and I would have reacted as you did, or worse, had I been in that situation.

I was one of those dumbasses in the day. Maybe just not that idiotic...

NOPE!! NO WAY. NOT TODAY.

Congratulations !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1 And Breathe ....

Congratulations on seven years smoke free.

Throwing on my 60,784 not smoked! R.I.P to those who didn't quit soon enough

You know your situation best @MLMR. I believe you also know what we all know which is that smoking is damaging to us in a number of ways so no lectures from me on that. Hope your life and mental health situation improves sooner than later so you can get back to quitting with a high level of passion, which as we all know is required to be successful. Until we see you again, be well!

Congratulations @Lust4Life2016, @Lust4Life on 7 years quit! I love celebrating with my fellow butt kickers and I'm so glad you're still here paying it forward. I hope you have a great day!

G’day NOPE .....Not One Puff Ever.... (replace Ever with Min,Hour, Day as required).

NOPE!

NOPE
