Quitters:

There has been some discussion with the Mod and Admin team about the threads that were started by 'groups' and being posted in the Introductions Section.

I'm not going to bore everyone with the details, but know that the discussion was extensive.

Bottom line is, we are going to merge these topics with your Pre (or current) HOF Group thread.

The Introductions section is intended for new quitters to come in and do just that: Introduce themselves. While we do have some quitters return to their Into page and use them as a sort of Blog page, we still feel that is well within the intent of the section.

So, these threads are getting locked, and moved.

No need to get all butt-hurt about this, but if you are, you can PM me and I can privately tell you to dooche the sand out.

Thanks,

NOLAQ
Also, to add on... if you'd like to "blog" you're more than welcome to use http://quit4today.com/

PM me for details.

Yeah, I made the switch to pouches about 3 years ago, thinking it would help wean me off of nicotine. LOL.

Instead I could just keep a pouch or two in all day b/c I never needed to spit.

Trying to think of something motivational here to say.....buuuut......JUST FUCKIN QUIT!
genius!
I wish I had a picture of my face the morning I quit. I woke up on the couch ( drunk ) that morning. I had a mouth full of spit and I could just feel Copenhagen all over me. The kids and wife were roaming around, so just buried my head in the pillow till the room cleared. I was embarrassed to even show my face. I hauled ass to the bathroom to get clean up. My face and mouth looked like an asshole that got fucking tore up. Eyes bloodshot, snuff in every inch of my mouth, stains down both sides of my face, and all over my white shirt. It gets better.... So my wife walks around the corner as looks at me and says "you are fucking pathetic"! and walks out. It just comes to a point where enough is enough because this shit is crazy.... Stay quit men.
Dude that's inspirational...in kind of a yucky way. Thanks for sharing seriously, you definately made my quit stronger!
Thanks. When I think about dippin I remember that morning and it makes me sick.
That just doubled the strength of my quit
That is funny as fuck. We were some sick bastards.

How about diving to work with a wad chucked in? You have your white company polo shirt on with the company logo on the left chest. You spit into yesterdayÂ’s coffee cup and as you pull the cup away a fucking stringer heading right for that crisp white company logo'd shirt.

Fuck! You lean forward in an attempt to save the shirt, swerve to the right and hit those annoying grooves meant to wake sleeping drivers. You overcorrect and almost hit the guy in the left lane all the while knowing it's a futile effort. That shirt is toast.

Find target, strip down to your tee shirt, go in and buy a new shirt for work. And the thing that really pissed you off is that it totally fucked up that chew.
LMAO stringer! Good old stringers and hangers.....fuckin nasty man. Certain types of beverages would always give my mouth such a viscosity that every spit turned into a stringer or hanger.

Cant remember how many times I have been at the local watering hole spittin in a budweiser bottle and had those happen to me....in front of some hot ass bitches too. Fuck. Its clear to me now how Dippshit came up with his handle.
I used to take a knife and cut little notches in the rim of my pop bottles to catch those sneaky stringers. Didn't care that it cut the hell out of my lips either.

Username: Bearnomore

Name: Hi everybody may name is Troy

Age: 54

Where: St. Peters, MO - a suburb of St. Louis

Married: Yes - 2 Daughters ages 25 and 21. One grandson. At the time of this post 16 month old. He is the apple of my eye. My daughter asked "how do you love a grandson compared to your own kids"? Simple - More.


Hobbies: Most pro sports. Running and woking out. Bowling, I bowl two leagues. Bowled when I was younger, took a 20+ year LOA to raise daughters. A good friend comes from a pro bowling family. Free coaching!

Addiction: Kodiak. Smoked in HS untill I was about 24 - quit for a number of years. Like a dumb ass tried a dip from a buddy while playing in a mens softball league. Who says no peer pressure when your in your 30's. Everyone else was doing it right? Better than inhaling smoke in your lungs. Didn't take much to hook me. Once an addict always an addict.

Thanks KTC!

Hobbies: my beloved Iowa Hawkeyes, lifting weights, riding my new Harley.

Addiction: Started when I was 15, me and my brother just got done at a farm we worked at... he gave me some copenhagen longcut and the next think i know im walkin through walmart with wobbly legs. I've tried to quit several times, only to convince myself after about 10 hours that i don't actually want to quit. I wanted to be quit for several reasons, mostly female related, but hey... whatever it takes to keep me quit eh? But its day 55 and I lately I've been seeing that old bitch for what she acutally is I'm starting to be able to see the control it had on me. I'll keep rollin.
