Nic fit!

a pack a day for 2 years? the damage may already be done.

Actually, according to current studies, after a 5 - 7 year span of not smoking, the lungs will have pretty much cleaned all the junk out of his system. His chances of getting any disease from smoking will pretty much be 0. Unless of course if he already has one, then he's screwed.

Now dieing high wouldn't be bad, but if I knew I was going to die, I would probably take like 10 hits of LSD. Might aswell die with your last vision being something from a psychedelic.

you guys arnet supportive

Canadians aren't stupid. It's the proximity to the negative average IQ in the United States -- it makes our average drop because our normal average of 130 or so gets siphoned off to balance out the universe. ;-)

As for quitting, good for you! As someone who took the bad end of second hand smoke when I was a little kid, I have absolutely no love for the habit and am very pleased when people kick it. (I actually thought you were quitting BYOND, heh. I've seen so many people buy BYOND memberships just to say "I quit!" it's not even funny...)

i never ment stupid canadians if ur pointin thos posts at me....

Solbadguy500:

average canadian IQ is 130?

That's pretty funny considering genius level is at 140.

No. 130 is considered "genious". I guess it's because it's like the American average is "doorknob". They say American Average is 105, but I doubt it's even that high.

My dad has 145 though? He has proof too. :o

The majority of IQ tests are wrong.

Meh. I can still call him stupid if I want too. >_<

IQ only shows your ability to process information. IT's so limited that a high IQ doesn't automatically make you "smart" -- it's just a good indicator.


As for the post, congratulations! A word of advice: The anti-smoker regime is going to try to make you believe a smoking physical addiction is as strong as Heroin. That's complete BS. The physical portion goes away very quickly and isn't nearly that strong. The real problem is getting over the psychological addiction. You'll have to fight the psychological addiction the rest of your life. It's not bad if you know how to handle it, but it will always be there, trying to get you to smoke when you're stressed.

Yeah, they seem to leave out of the statistics you see on television that the thousands of people dieing each day from smoking illnesses were from, like the 50s and crap. People who smoked themselves silly for decades.

I bet if people trained themselves not to smoke more than a quarter-pack or less a day, there'd be a whole lot less disease.... And it also feels better.


I quit a month ago, but I don't intend to stay off of them. I just don't have enough money to keep wasting it on pleasure.

Good! Good luck on quitting, try to avoid smoking people, try to avoid shops that sell sigarettes, and after a while you'll eventually be fine.

Good luck!
