Well guys some days have gone by since my last rant and I've been called out by everybody close to me. Apparently, Ive been being a real dick! Who knew? With that said, I'm back to apologize to for getting a bit over the top and for pissing in most of yall's post oasties. I appreciate y'all for not telling me to completely fuck off the other day and giving me a minute to rant. I get pretty bent normally over seeing somebody get bullied, but that was over the top and I ended up misunderstanding it anyway. My bad fellas!

no apologies necessary....you were not the first and will not be the last..

and that is what we are here for, a family to help one another out when its needed.

now just keep putting the +1 on that day count....and keep up the good quit

thank you Sir!

Glad you are back on the board here and feeling better. I like the fight in you, that will help you stay quit if you use it for that. Keep getting through it, you're doing what has to be done and it's great to see!

On an up-note tomorrow is three weeks and I hardly even miss snuff. At one point I was standing in a circle drinking a beer around a fire and was the only guy not dipping. I got called a big fat V and offered a pinch of most any flavor I could think of. That's how my buddies roll...fuckers! To be honest I felt pretty good about it and felt even better about it afterwards.

At this time, I'm focusing on "forced positivity" right now to keep from losing my cool and that too seems to be working. Good luck gentleman and I'm proud to be quitting with y'all today!

Wanted to put this up,,  good discussion.  Do to your pm,  I did some research to find out what you were talking about.  I can understand your anger at the post if you didn't totally understand it.  The posts about posting roll everyday were not intended for  everyone going through battles at the hospital or things in which are life altering.  We understand that things happen. 

I believe the posts were for everyone that is able to post or can text someone else if they need to have someone post for them.  You also have to realize when your quoting stuff like that, not everyone even seen it.  Not everyone posted a quote on it, so it's not fare to blanket everyone with the response.  I believe only one person posted after the person in question put his hospital reply.  To be honest I didn't agree totally with that post, but I do commend the reasoning.  To put it all into perspective.  i believe you totally misread it and thought of everyone jumping on a guy in the hospital and that's just not the case. 

To sum it up,, only one person commented after the hospital quote,,  not everyone.  Most of the quotes were before the said individual posted his reply.

Look ssever,, everyone here cares about your quit bro.  No one wants to jump on a guy that's in the hospital with something serious.  Everyone of us is in this together.  Post every day with me brother.  I need you as bad as you need me.  Quit with you today.

Fair enough, I didn't mean to blanket all you guys in there. I was just pissed. I'm gonna go btho of something now!

Do whatever you got to do to keep your sanity brother. It gets better,,, believe it!

Great, now I gotta look through 232 pages of the April 2014 Quit group to find what someone said to someone who was in the hospital.

I swear, this site is better than a soap opera! Let's change the name from Killthecan.org to ASTHECANTURNS.ORG or CANSOFOURLIVES.ORG

(I'm a little ashamed to admit that I know the names of those soap operas!)

Quitting with all you people today!!!

'oh yeah'

My foot hurts today, so I got a lot of time on my hands. Anything else need clearing up? lol

alright guys I not trying to be cocky here. I don't feel good. I feel like shit, but I am a resolute bastard and I will not quit quitting for anyone or anything no matter if you guys have my back or not. I am not trying to rewrite anything here guys. None of what I've said here had anything to do with saying KTC was wrong in any way. It's obvious that it works! and in regards to how I am going to help, I will continue to log my quit on this page so that others can read it and offer people information and the ear I needed when I got here.

hark there has been much progress this morning (if you have not seen it).

friend you have responses here from 3 dedicated quitters (SM, Srans, Diesel) here on this site that if you earn their respect, would drop anything to talk on the phone to help.

may not realize but there are quite a few here that watch out for one another and yes we got your back if and when you need.

keep to it and you will win.

Just keep grinding. You need anything, we are here for you.

Ok guys I feel like I should explain just a little here. I'm not trying to be a prick. My accountability doesn't come from this site. I live a very disciplined life between my profession, 2 full time jobs, single parenting full custody, and being the go to guy for several in their darkest of times. I live by a code and don't waiver from it, and I don't need a mass following to do so. I just needed a couple good men to steer me in the right direction, a long time ago. I did not come here for accountability. I happened on this site while looking for information on what was coming up by way of nicotine fits. I am staying here now because I am hoping to help someone in the long run through support and to help them realize we don't have to be drama queens about this, and if they'll get their ass off this computer then this will get a whole lot easier. Especially if you already live a disciplined life. The key to me is not posting roll. I do that for y'all to keep up with my quit if you like. I stay quit however because I  said I would, to myself and my boy. I will continue to post roll, but to be honest if duty calls and  I find myself in a situation where I don't have anyone to contact again, roll will just have to wait.

See ya in the HOF!

P.S. my fiery mentality on this has a lot to do with a guy who was in the hospital and y'all ripped his ass on main street without a single concern for his well being. If any of you knew about brotherhood you'd see how effed that really is!

For what it's worth Ssever, it sounds like you got it all figured out. A question?

If you could quit without the accountability from the site, (no roll) . Why haven't you done it long ago?

There is a comfort in standing shoulder to shoulder with another. Facing the same battles, the same fears, the same pain. It's what makes friends out of strangers. Overcoming the adversity of quitting nicotine as a community is what makes this place work.

Lone wolf it if you must, and good luck to you. There are some hurdles you still have, that you're unaware of yet. When you start to struggle I hope you find your way. This is deeper than it looks at your stage.

Besides you say you want to help others?, then stand next to them in the line up each day and let the guys in your group know that your grinding it out WITH them.

Thousands of people before you have followed the steps laid out here very successfully.

Including me. 1823 days quit.

Get with the program sparky

sM

Billy Bad Ass. What a difference from your first few days here.

Obviously you are better than all us lame ass addicts and have this shit licked.

Dude, tonight when my undisciplined day ends and my kids say their prayers, I will have them replace Gods name with yours.

If your such a hard ass cut by the stone of discipline, how did you get hooked by nicotine in the first place??? That's like superman complaining of a mosquito bite.

Don't do us any "favors" by sticking around and posting role just because it's "the thing to do". That's shallow, petty, and lame.

You don't need accountability? then what the fuck is the point of being here? Like sM said, go line wolf bro. You got the answers before the questions.

Ktc was here before you and will be here after you. You don't like our ways, leave...or start your own site. It's a free country.

As for this person that was in the hospital...I have no fucking clue who you are talking about.

Let me know when billybadass.com is up and running, I'd like to check it out.

struck a little nerve I see!. Do you really think that domain name is available. It's funny how only a few you folks here tried to reach out but now have so much to say.

Ok pause for a second let me try to help this out a little

I agree that there has been a noteable difference between now and the first few days, and there were a few of you guys who really helped me out. For that I am very thankful! But what really got me and made my change from being a "lame ass addict" was the day that my driver followed me into a store and stood by my side because he knew that I'd buy a can if it was offered. At that point I found my resolve to never feel so childish again.
I'll never put that shit in my mouth again as a result!!

Be careful. Please.

This is a long battle, I get your feeling good and inspired but please don't get cocky. The bitch is very tricky.

Why you feel the need to talk down to us and mock the way we do things is beyond me, and I'm done thinking about it.

You say you want to help people. I look forward to seeing you do so.

How exactly was you planning to help others?

This is how you help my friend. Stop trying to rewrite the ktc playbook. It works. It's worked for 1000's. Your not the first that's come in here that thought they knew more than the rest. Your a long way from being out of the woods my friend. We are here to help you, but you will not change what's not broke. As diesel and sM said. There is a lot coming your way. You have no idea. This addiction is nasty. It doesn't care how much you think you know. It knows you better than you do. Get with the program friend. We care about your quit,, not your feeling.
