I agree with reci, that's no friend. I would have taken the whole pack and destroyed them, guaranteed that with the cost of cigarettes over there he wouldn't do it anymore!

He thought it was deer season Why do they say “one size fits all” when it clearly doesn’t fit a baby?

To remind you that you're full of shit People say something tastes like crap so why do so many people know what crap tastes like?

It's easier to put tires on them Why do owls say who?

They give the best massages Does having stage fright mean you’re afraid of raised wooden platforms?

Here's my 40,135!

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!

Congratulations @JustSomeGuy on another year quit. That's AWESOME!!!

beacon Posted March 5, 2015 I was thinking about the first few months of my quit and how I posted on the boards quite alot. I posted about dizziness, stomach aches, craves and anger and and clear lungs and weight gain and feelings of sheer joy. The first month, the first drink, the first vacation, the first taste, the first drs appointment, Each of these were special, unique, important to me, my experience. The old phartes commented, comforted, celebrated, and laughed. What I didn't know at the time was that 1000+ nonsmokers before me had posted very similar comments at very same time frame during their own quits. Yet these were their own unique experiences. The old phartes helped in very similar ways. Tthere is a pattern , a standard journey of the quit that we all follow, experiencing the same thing as we journey. This means we can rely on the nonsmokers on the path ahead who tell us how it will be if we continue to travel. True release. True freedom. This is what they are telling us and we can believe it is true. Link to original post: https://www.quittrain.com/topic/4682-the-pattern-of-the-journey/

Congratulations @bakon on 11 years quit, that's awesome! Hopefully we'll be seeing you for your normal dose of insults and trash talking Seriously though that's a great quit. Hope your living large in retirement

Congratulations @Stewbum on 2 months quit already in spite of all the personal stuff life has thrown at you. You should be super proud of yourself. I hope you have a great day

Congratulations @Rajag, the pride you have in your quit is awesome and well earned

Congratulations @QuittingGirl on another month quit. That's AWESOME! Don't forget to treat yourself to something special just for you today, you deserve it

I was thinking about how accomplished my week was then thought about extras I had slipped in this week one of which was sending a rescue toilet paper slide down the wall of the bathtub to help a daddy long leg out of it. He was trying so hard to get up the sides and their skinny legs are so delicate that grabbing it almost always results in loss of limb and its pretty pathetic watching a daddy long leg walk with a missing limb

That's AWESOME @SecondChanceSailor, Congratulations and thanks for the update!

You got this mlmr

Congratulations @Brioski on the awesome quit you have going. You have come so far from when you started and I love watching the transformation. I hope you have a great day!

I agree @MLMR, your life does matter. It's the addiction making you think otherwise ..

Soberjulie Posted November 7, 2015 I dunno if Sarge still posts here but some of his no nonsense, shoot from the hip, tell it like it is words helped me immensely in my first days...weeks...months. The best: Embrace The Suck. You'll have moments, many moments, where quitting just plain sucks. If you're anything like me, you'll think of throwing the towel in....because...."the way I feel sucks!" Embrace the suck. Accept it. Head down and power through it! Wherever you are Sarge.....thank you. I've earned them stripes! I'm coming up on 2 years.......and I never ever have to 'embrace the suck' in regards to nicotine anymore. But Embrace The Suck has been instrumental in many areas of my life Link to original post: https://www.quittrain.com/topic/6233-wise-wordsembrace-the-suck/

That's a very thoughtful dog you have. Mine would chase a ball but wasn't thrilled about giving it back and having to go chase it again

LOVE this @Stewbum, so true!

I agree !

Wow @Reciprocity, he doesn't give his poor lungs a break. It reminds me of me back in the day when I would take a couple hits of a bowl of weed then go smoke a cigarette, then come in and take a couple more hits. Well, you see where I now....................... I hope your friend wisens up before it's too late
