I think its a great lesson for other "aspiring" quitters.

Either pull the trigger or don't waste our bandwidth.

The other argument for not worrying about tomorrow. Today is the day is the only day you live in.. Therefore today is the only day to Quit in
Amen.

Classic dick tuck.
This is why you can't "plan" a quit.

Just frickin quit if you're gonna quit. Otherwise it's all talk.
But the Chantrix isn't working! This was supposed to be easy! The fake dip I bought doesn't taste like the real stuff! Jesus was supposed to be my guide!!
Bump. The time to quit isn't tomorrow.

The cold hard fact is we were really mean to the guy. He probably came back and read the posts and was like, "These guys are being mean. I said I was going to quit so they should show me respect".

Sorry pal, nothing but tough love here. No silver bullets, no shortcuts unless you doctor will put you in a coma for 100 days, just the cold hard painful truth.

Nothing worse than trying to bullshit a room full of people who were the masters of bullshit until they finally quit.
Is this being nicer?

Words mean nothing. Action. That's what holds us together here.
In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

Ignoring history or erasing history fixes nothing and leads you inevitably down the same path.-69franx 04/30/2021

I hear they will exhume Casey Casem for this event. Carson daly will be dooshy.

I'm going to wear my best sweater, and hope to get some at midnight. I'm already sporting a half chub...please don't leave me waiting.

I'll bring flowers...
Waste, I think I think found an announcer even better for this spectacle.
I'm so excited!....what....

Kill that can. Don't leave me crying. I'm fragile, and I'm wearing my best dress.

:WastedPanel:
Welp, here we go. The countdown is on. I'll put money on it that he wakes up today with half a can left. Decides to put it off until Monday, but damn he's got that big meeting on Monday, can't possibly do it then. The worst part about quitting tomorrow is that tomorrow never comes.
But... but... Chantix. That shit is like gold plating for your quit.
Well, we're waiting.

He hasn't even been back since his first post. Poof! Good thing I don't need this guy to quit today.

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.
