I've lovingly captured this (hopefully) monumental moment on video. It is, however, very boring to watch so i put a song on it.

About 2 minutes before I shot this I finished reading Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking which came highly recommended. Hopefully this time around is more successful that last time. vimeo.com/8231

*Coincidentally, the previous quit smoking video was my first appearance on Vimeo.

    good luck this time...
    i heard about this book too.
    but i think more important than the quality of the book is if you really want to stop. if so, then you can make it ;)

    What brand do you smoke? Maybe that's the problem.

    good luck streeter! it would truly be shame if you had a miserable, lung-cancer metastisizing death because you couldn't cut your habit. Although, if you got throat cancer, you could talk out of a voice box... that'd be funny right?

    It would not.

    Quit the stick Streeter.

    Yeah! way to go! fuck ciggies. spit spit.

    if this is any motivation: smoking not only causes lung cancer but pretty much any cancer, like bladder cancer. so if you kept smoking and got bladder cancer you may develop stress urinary incontinence and therefore you could never laugh at your own jokes, esp on stage, because... well... you'd pee your pants. you dont want to pee your pants, do you?!

    I would have liked to have seen you burn the remaining pack at the end -- it would have really drove it home for me.

    Way to go Streeter! You are on your way to no longer freezing your ass off in the dead of winter to have a cig because the building you are in is smoke-free.

    I smoked for 10 and have successfully quit for 6 years. I still drink coffee. Just get past the initial craves and you'll be good. Pretend you just had one..ahh, wasn't that nice? Just don't tell people "I'm trying to quit smoking". You quit damnit. That's it. Then you'll also get into this long conversation about how smoking is so bad, but so good and how someone else you know is trying to quit and you're leaning on each other for moral support, but they're not gonna last. Good luck.

    be careful. quitting one addiction usually means you'll pick up another. how about taking up competitive masturbation, or perhaps eyelash flicking?
  • MikeMcG 2 years ago
    I'd go with compulsive homicide.

  • andyroo 2 years ago
