    OK, first of all, hello everyone. I'm Slauncha Man. Now that we have that overwith…

    I was watching The Daily Show the other night, and I saw a Nicorette commercial. In the commercial, it says that you can take a piece whenever you like to help your cravings. But, there's very fine print at the bottom that says, "DO NOT TAKE MORE THAN 24 PIECES A DAY." I'm just wondering - who the hell would chew that much Nicorette? If you do, you'll probably become addicted to the gum. My prediction for the next major tobacco lawsuit: someone gets mouth cancer whilst trying to quit smoking.

    That stuff doesn't work. I tried it and ended up smoking and chewing the gum at the same time.

    I've never tried the patch, but I'm sure I'd end up rolling pieces of Nicorette in it and smoking that too.

    I'm guessing by "Slauncha," you mean "Sláinte."

    I never tried the gum but I did try using the patch while I was taking Zyban. It helped a lot but as soon as I ran out I started smoking again.

    Yup. Sort of. Slauncha is a drunken equivalent to Sláinte, which means "Health" in Gaelic and is said before taking a drink. I got it from an Adam Sandler skit.

    Two words:

    Cold.

    Turkey.

    I smoked 2 packs of Marlboro a day for ten years, but when you really make your mind up to quit, you just quit.

    It's that simple. Really.

    Welcome. Nicorette gum is just people takeing advantage of smokers. You can only quit by slowly comming off, with help from friends and family. Trust me I know. Cold turkey works for some people.

    I dropped my cigarette on the floor of my car on my way back from my luch break. I hope I got it out and my car doesn't catch on fire. I believe that might detour me from smoking for a while... at least in my car anyway. The spot the xray found on my lung sure hasn't...

    7 pounds is nothing. Christ, I've prolly put that much on in the last month... smoking. I'm turning into a lard ass. I think my metabolism has slowed way the fuck down. Turning 25 sucked.

    I'll be fucking huge by 30. I remember the good old days of being 115... that was 4 years and almost 25 pounds ago. At the rate I'm going I figure I'll be 5'7 and 170 pounds at age 30. Guess it's back to the super model diet of water and nicotine... I'm going to go do some sit-ups now.

    Probably not, but it might keep you from driving.
