what more additcting Smoking cigs, or modifying the evo...lets find out!!
I make my own now, about $15 a carton, but I've seen some tobacco so cheap you can make a carton for less than $6.
Well I failed miserably today I smoked today at work. Guess that sums it up smoking is more adictive to me. I got too much **** that is stressing me out right now and I don't know why but smoking soothes it and makes me feel good. I really wish I could just quit but I'm too weak against it. After I get a tune I'm not going to get anymore mods for the evo for a while beacuse it will never be enough, I will always want more. I'm just gonna pay this bish off faster instead.
Don't get discouraged. It can often take multiple tries to quit. I finally took my last drag four years ago and had been smoking for almost ten years, since my mid teens. Try the gum, try the chantix, try whatever, just don't give up. Oh, and when you do try again you may want to not drive the Evo as much, at least for the first month or so until the aggression subsides. I was a real a-hole to everyone I knew for about three months after I quit and had more aggression on the road. Now... I'm hooked on coffee and more broke than when I smoked. Well, at least I'm not killing myself anymore.
i don't smoke it's not worth the long term complications. 100 a month goes a long ways to make you happy. I smoked for 10 years and decided I can still a live a lot longer. I quit by cutting my rations, cold turkey made me smoke more. If smoking cigarrettes gets you High then I'd be addicted, but it never even gave me anything but an addiction. Good luck and live a long healthy life
its filtered by the filter on the cigarrette first and then by my lungs.
how is it filtered going in me and not the guy whos face i blow it in? hahah
edit: and i really have nothing against you and i have nothing but respect for your choice to not smoke. but the unfiltered comment didnt make sense

i actually just went 3 full days with out a cig...bout to go on to the 4th day...its funny because the day you made this thread was the same day that i said to myself if i dont smoke this whole day im gonna try and quit...basically because i have had some serious sore throat for almost a week and i thought not smoking would help...and so far im on day 4 almost.
I want to smoke sooooo bad sometimes but its almost like my throat is keeping me from smoking....so i dont know if its better that im sick so im not smoking or if im not sick and i would prob be smoking
by the way just because you had one isn't all that bad...some ppl just can't do cold turkey...at least your cutting down

That is a really good idea!!
I have often tried to replace smoking by treating myself to something with the money instead (like your 100$ mod idea), only in my case it was guitar stuff. I typically just finish my pack spend 100 on something then start smoking the next day..... how did you decide when to quit? I feel I would have to go to sleep, wake up, and not smoke. Then the next day, I feel like having just 1, and decide to taper off instead, so I buy a pack, and then smoke the one, and one leads to two and three and so on. It's like I really feel uncomfortable/irritable without it. Usually before I do anything, I smoke one. Say I was going to install an intercooler, I would get everything unpacked from the boxes then take a pause and smoke. Then smoke when I am finished. Seems like everything in my life works this way. I do things around smoking, I dont smoke around doing things.. Sort of controlling my life.
It's one of those things where if you dont smoke, you really dont understand.

I NEVER said it was a mental illness. I said it was a mental WEAKNESS. There is a definitive difference between the two. There is also an extremely large difference between choosing to smoke and sacrificing to eat something to stay alive. As far as watching people pick up half smoked cigarettes off the ground that just reinforces my point that it is a mental weakness.

I have never put a cig in my mouth, but my parents both smoke and I hated it the whole time I lived at home. I think that is why I am the way I am now days. Since the birth of my first son, I've begged my parents to quit smoking so they will live longer to see my boys grow up. They have Chantix sitting at home and just refuse to take it. That is a prime example that you have to WANT to stop smoking in order to do so.
My son picked up a cig off the street one day and said, "papa" and it pissed me off so bad I called him from vacation to tell him what his 2 year old grandson compares his papa too. He says, "papa" when he sees a truck cause my father in law has a F250. I've since stopped saying or asking about when they are gonna stop smoking.
Sorry for the long post, but good luck in trying to stop. I have a buddy at work that did the Chantix and he quit in 2 months and he was smoking 3 packs a day. You might want to look into it if you are really serious about it.
I tried smoking when i was in middle school, ya know cause it was the cool thing to do. Never could enjoy it and am thankful for that now. Then i tried speed with a civic hb h22a in highschool, hooked ever since. Man I love speed.
