Ex-Smoker

Go Me

Two years ago (+/- timezone issues) I extinguished my last cigarette. After twelve years of poisoning myself and offending my friends, I stopped entirely. It was trivially easy.

The tobacco comapanies encourage governments to tell you it's hard to stop. It's a huge, heaving, hacking, hawking lie. Giving up is easy. I would link to a book, but it won't do any good. If you want to stop, you can, It'll be easy and fun. If you don't want to stop, then keep on smoking. Two at a time. Enjoy.

Since I stopped inhaling free radicals in taxable form, I've saved over $4000. Now, I eat my toxins, instead.

End of Sanctimony. Honest.

I smoked my last cigarette in a hotel in Tallinn. It's a lovely little city, just a bit cold in winter. The sea freezes. Well worth a visit. The food is excellent, the booze is cheap and the people are friendly. The language is a Finno-Ugric trainwreck with fourteen cases and no prepositions. On the plus side, it's not quite as agglutinative as Finnish, and you won't need to speak it. Russian and English are widely understood.
