Like a pediatrician rounding on cystic fibrosis children in the hospital and smoking at their bedside. That's what the early 1980s were like.
  • Good luck! I quit cold turkey after 20 years of smoking, and I started just like you at around 10 or so. The year after I quit was a bit weird, it was hard the first month or so, and got substantially better every day. What helped me not to start again, is that feeling that it might be weird now, but if I start again, that would mean all those terrible first days were for nothing, and I hate suffering with no purpose.
    After a year I randomly realised that not only I don't want to smoke anymore, the thought alone is a bit revolting, and that's when I knew that I'm finally done with the whole shit. Gained a bit of weight though, nicotine is a wonderful appetite suppressor, but never regretted it.

  • Yeah, instead of just leaving their article as a merely words for you to ignore they should've come to your house and read it to you out loud until you get it. It's an easy mistake a lot of authors make, they have nobody but them to blame

  • Nope, not better at all. Worse, since you're getting l nothing useful from that, and on top of that you making the discourse worse with your uninformed comment

  • And yet you chose to waste it on skimming trough headlines and arguing in comments about shit you hadn't read. You don't seem to value it at all
