It has been a while since I consistently contributed to the intros on this website. I usually used these pages when I was raging as a tool to keep it away from those around me and others on these boards. While I must admit I know I will never be out of the woods, I feel like some symptoms like rage as a result of nic and "the fog" are behind me. I just want to send a big "don't worry" to those that have read my intro and feel as if they will not longer be able to hear my negative comments on here. I refuse to disappoint so here it goes....
I have been doing a lot of thinking lately about the question: "Are you signing up for 200?"
I have thought the following:

Is that even a serious question?
Why the fuck would I quit now?

I mean really, not signing up for 200 is like you dropping your kid off at a college campus after their baptism, leaving the Frank Reich game in the second quarter, or leaving the wedding reception when the open bar starts. Why would anyone with over 6,000 days of nic bitch use quit such a successful community after 100 days?

I am going to take it even further and I may piss people off. If you are not signing up for 200 then let us know. You are setting up a cave. You are already adopting thoughts that "you can do this alone.". You are untrustworthy with my quit as well as your own. I will say fuck off and I will see in 10 years when you come back to posting day 1. To everyone in June- Slinger, MCO, LK, Bronc, Raider, Hansen, LT, Herman, Spence, Reese-Let's make some KTC records. Let's be that group that still has a few dozen members 2 years later. People are going to say "damn, that is a badass group." lets keep it going. Thanks everyone for your support. Lata

A 16 year old teenager was interviewed by reporters. The teen explained that he works 12 hour days. Oftentimes he works until he vomits, suffers from nausea, and/or being lightheaded. "I didn't feel well, but I still kept working. I started throwing up," said one 16-year-old The sixteen year old goes on to tell the reporter that he works in order to pay for school supplies and his book bag for the next school year.
Thirteen year old Elena is the next to be interviewed. “I would barely eat anything because I wouldn’t get hungry,” a 13-year-old named Elena told Human Rights Watch in May 2013. “Sometimes I felt like I needed to throw up. I felt like I was going to faint. I would stop and try to hold myself up".
These two examples are not young people from a third world country. These are just two examples of many young people that work on tobacco fields during the summer months when school has ended. Many are part of a family owned farm. Some are making money to help support the household. Children as young as 12 can legally work unlimited hours on these fields. Most are from the states of North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Virginia where 90 percent of the tobacco in the United States is grown. Workers are oftentimes exposed to as much as 54 milligrams of dissolved nicotine. This is equivalent to 50 cigarettes and is absorbed in ways that are similar to nicotine patches.

Thank you Big Tobacco for lobbying to enslave our children legally. Piece of shit scumbags.
this fuckin weed gets more impressive every day
Do a li'l more research on it... it's deadly scary!

Around WWII we used nicotine as an insecticide. Not long after it was deemed too harmful for most wildlife that came into contact with it so they banned its use...



Yep, we used to put this shit happily into our bodies everyday. Glad that's finally over for us. I hate it and I hate the pushers of it! Thanks for the fuel Sixer! Quit On Brother!
thanks for posting- it helps to keep some facts rolling in here. It's a crime against humanity what big tobacco does. we need to see it to keep the hatred for the poison and the poisoners stoked.

Good posts Sixer, proud to be quit with you today.
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

It is important to acknowledge that we are all in some ways addicted to something, be it only money, shopping, success, promotion, food or sex. People who are addicted to something have become too solidly locked into a love of pleasure and are reaping the consequences of that lifestyle. It also means that their sense of identity is rewarded only when they indulge whatever they crave, and this has thus become dependent upon their addiction. A firm sense of self-identity is based solely upon their habit, and without it, they feel invisible and non-existent. This is often termed an ‘addictive personality’ – they believe that life without ‘their fix’ is unfaceable, not worth living and sad and boring. Such people have identified so strongly or solidly with the source of their pleasure that they believe life without it is not possible or is unthinkable. To at least some degree, we had lost control of our life.
Liking where your going in these recent posts. THis one brought to mind---

Every time I try to stick my head in the sand about this addiction stuff, it turns out I end up looking into the rabbit hole!

I am actually very proud of myself right now. I am writing this in my intro because I feel like the things I have to say may reflect my asshole tendencies. I know many of the people that see my intro are just my supporters that I wouldn't be quit without, so I decided to write them here. I just have to vent about a certain topic......

I am growing really fuckin tired of the seemingly societal norm that can be best explained as "Pussification". Stop your damn whining and crying. We all notice your issues and problems and have more respect for you when you try to let them go unnoticed. That respect is deep as hell. When you make a mistake, you are supposed to hear it. Everyone doesnt get a fuckin trophy on KTC. Chewie and the gang are not going to invent coins for 10 day increments of quit. If you can not take members getting on you for fuckin up then how the hell are you going to fight off that bitch of a crave that we are all familiar with??? One of the Top five things in my life that piss me off???? People that complain that people care too much. Yes, that is us. We dont show it by patting each other on our asses. I hope the new guys are understanding how it works.......

Thanks for your support everyone.....I cant fuckin wait til tomorrow morning so I can make another promise to you bad ass dudes that I will not use nicotine. out.


I quit with your bad ass, 6r. I just wish you didn't care so much 'winker'
I care about yours and everyone's quit on here. But i care and voice my opinion so much because the more I care, the more I refuse to be the caving loudmouth with no balls. Care too much to cave. Thank u doc
Sixer, I am damn proud of the quitter you have become.

Any newbies that may not get why being involved and invested works would read this intro. If sixer had bought in/sold out like this before he would be on the 12th floor right now. Do not be a wallflower! Get involved, get mad, and get quit!
The problem is not the problem.  The problem is your attitude about the problem.  Do you understand?

If its too much trouble to post roll call, you could always fuck off.

Sixer, you and me have forged a solid bond since I first invaded your thread and called you out for Â…I'll categorize it as "griping". Well, to come full circle I wanted to follow-up on your thread and say that I was completely wrong about you. Nobody can question how deeply involved in quitting you are. Your log of personal quit experiences and learnings of nicotine (such as this) inspire. Good stuff brother.
