One more thing...Because I still like to find some humor in all of this

I am going out of town this weekend which got me thinking about how much I liked to pack dips on the plane. I can honestly say the majority of the pleasure I got from doing this had nothing to do with the altitude. Call me an asshole, but I always thoroughly enjoyed peoplesÂ’ reaction when I pulled a tin out mid flight and threw a huge lip in. Of course I would then proceed to ask the stewardess for an empty cup. I suppose I will have to find a new way to torment the person next to me on this trip. I just hope karma doesnÂ’t kick me in the nuts and seat me next to someone packin lips
You are a better man than me. I used to freak the fuck out on a plane. Had to make sure the cup was secured prior to. If it was clear, had to have napkins in it. Had to have a blanket to hide the cup under. Had to make sure either stage left or stage right was sleeping before I started. If I was traveling with the fiance and two boys, that usually meant a complete stranger next to me as they were across the aisle, and then I would really freak out if they tried to talk to me.

Story of my life. Complete pussy in certain situations. Maybe it's respect for all mankind, who knows, but another fucking brain fuck for me. I worry about everything....

Peace, White, have a good trip, make sure u post roll while u are away, u fuck. You got numbers?
Good stuff FtheKodiak/Whitey,
I fly quite a bit and not dipping was one of the hardest things for me not to do on a plane...especially while waiting to get on one. I was like FtheKodiak and would Ninja Dip "in flight". I would never talk to anyone unless absolutely necessary. Now that I quit...I strike up conversations with anybody that sits next to me. Poor bastards!

Well 3 things happened to me last night that I though never would:
1) Barely Slept
2) Had a dream about caving
3) Went to a bar, had a few drinks, drove home, didnt dip.

The last makes me feel good about the first two.

Since I didnt sleep I got to the office bright and early this morning. Because not many people are around at this hour I decided to empty the skoal graveyard out of my desk. 22 empties, and it hasnt been that long since I cleaned it last. Now the only empty can I have left is the formerly full can (minus my last lip) that I flushed. I wrote my quit date on the top of that one. I think Im gunna keep it around for a while.

I must admit that give a TON of credit to all the guys on the site who have decided to quit after 20+ years. Like I said below, I had only been dipping for 3 years and over my first 5 nic-free days I cant help but to continually think back on all the good times I had with a lip in. After all, I think we would all agree that when we started chewing it was for purely social purposes. I don't know about you, but when I started I never thought I would being staying up all night by myself just to get a few extra dips in. I got started with a few buddies of mine cause it was something to do while fishing or playing golf. At this point, its tough for me to think about doing these activities without a huge dipper, and I've only been pulling this shit for 3 years. Then I think how a lot of you have 30 years of dipping during fishing trips, golf games, hunting trips, and sunday football, yet youre still getting by. And that makes it all the more managable for me
Whitey

There is no badge of honor associated with number of dipping years under your belt. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise. You're either addicted or not....and if you're addicted and keep on using nicotine, you're FUCKED, because you're killing yourself. Ease up on the sentimental good times you had with the piece of shit in your mouth. Those were good times because you were with friends or because you made an idiot of yourself on the golf course...whatever. I guarandamntee your life will get better from kicking this habit. I recommend reading everything on this link: http://www.killthecan.org/facts/cancerfacts.asp

Keep up the good quit bro!!!!!!!!

What used to be my #1 problem every morning? Finding a spitter before 7am. I cant even count the number of times that I have bought bottled soda only to turn right around and dump the soda out and use the bottle for spit. Whats my biggest problem now? Trying to figure out to do with all the empty bottles collecting on my desk.
That is some funny shit, I have spent hundreds of dollars over the years running into a convience store to buy a bottle of water just to dump out and spit in.

My first reaction is to get defensive about the mere possibility that you're suggesting that I am doing something diabolical to my own son.

But I decide to just laugh instead. I can't help it.

I still leave my empties on the table next to me and catch myself grabbing for my girlfriends arm to stop her when she goes to throw it away.

Thanks for the replies. You can call me shit head or douche bag for all I care. Just as long as at the end of the day I am still dip free. There were times after 24 hour dip binges that I thought it was impossible for my mouth to hurt any more than it did. Well, I can now say that I was wrong. I have been chewing on seeds since I arrived at work at 6am and I have probably consumed 200% of my daily sodium intake. I dont mind though...As long as it keeps me at 0% daily nicotine intake.
Don't worry about the nutritional value of seeds (or lack thereof), just do whatever it takes to stay quit. I was going through 2 big bags of seeds per day during the first couple months. You'll have plenty of time to wean yourself later.

Welcome Mr. White!!!!! 3 years or 30 years it makes no difference, it is still an addiction and can kill you no matter how long you have dipped. Damn smart of you to realize this before it killed you!!!
By the way, can we all agree not to call him MISTER?!?!?!?!?!
Sure, but what about Honky, Cracker, Gringo, Roundeye, Whiteboy, Whitey, or The Man?
Any of those Pinch, will surely do. Shit, I fucking almost typed "Professor" to you... 'finger point'

Yes i know what u do, but way too formal for me!
