Wow is right. Not sure what to think about that.

On one hand, fuck Big Tobacco and the horse they rode in on.

On the other, it was Gwynn's choice to use products that cause cancer. I'm not necessarily a fan the law suit.

Chewie

I'm not a fan either and no way in hell they win.

Maybe they are just looking to bring awareness to the highly addictive nature of chew / dip? I can get with that...

I don't think they're trying to bring awareness to the addictiveness of chewing tobacco I think they're are trying to cash in on a loved ones death.

While I like the attention brought to the dangers of smokeless tobacco, the truth is that I was taught in 7th grade health class back in 1979 that this stuff might cause me to die should I use it. I ignored those warnings on my own and I am dealing with the consequences now. I hope that they are stressing this harder in health class these days but I sort of doubt it. When I was in junior high the health teacher was considered a joke position - I think because we were all in 7th grade and we were all going to live forever and be rock stars...

I think suing big tobacco is a bunch of fucking bullshit to be quite frank. One chose to use tobacco. It is their fault. No one twisted their arms. And one cashing in on a loved one gone, bullshit!!! .

So in other words can I sue McDonalds and Hardees for making me the fat fuck I am today? Can I sue Hustler for me getting carpel tunnel by the time I was 18?


Todays society is a bunch of sue happy fucks that need their fucking teeth kicked down the gullets until they choke and die! Fucking burden on the justice system to be honest.

And for the record, i have lost NUMEROUS loved ones to tobacco. I had 9 family members die in 10 months back in 2006 from tobacco. I did not sue a once. It was their choice to use, and they paid the ultimate price.

Ill shut up now.

I personally don't agree with the lawsuit either. Just thought it was interesting. I think the family is barking up the wrong tree if they are looking to cash in. They will get squashed like bugs in court.

Then again, fuck big tobacco and the tin they rode in on. They can sniff and lick a dick.

Pretty confused how this site works! Only on my phone where do I post where people will reply with support? Day 2

Matty, welcome to quit!

2 days is a good start.

Go to the September 2016 quit group (topic/11649440/15/
Say hello, post there every morning. You will see a bunch of quitters who have been at it for a while, plus a select few new quitters like yourself.

Hi Matty

Your quit group is located at topic/11649440/1/

Visit that link and post your situation and all that good stuff. This is your new home. You can rant there, say hello, you will post roll daily so your group can hold you accountable as well as you holding them accountable. posting roll daily is your only price you have to pay for admission to this site. Not a bad deal right?

Get to know your brothers and sisters of quit. Exchange numbers with folks and when the chip;s are down or the suck really sucks, give them a call and chat. Do what you need to do to keep that shit out of your lips for another 24 hours. We do it one day at a time here brother.

If you ever need anything give me a PM and we will go from there.

Take care and stay quit man!!!


P.S. I understand the confusion. Just stick with it. It will come real quickly to you. And I know there is some links here somewhere to teach you how to post roll on your phone but Im not sure how. Just go to your group I posted and say your name - day 1 and your promise not to use nicotine in ANY form today and say pick me up please.

P.P.S When we say no nic in any form, that means NONE. No Gum, lozenges, patches, vapes or anything. Chantix and valium or zanax are sometimes prescribed by doctors and that is cool but NO NIC EVER!!! It would be disrespectful to us quitters who are nic free.


Take care bud!!

Taking this moment to thank all those who have served our country past and present. Those that made it home, never made it home (MIA), or died in the course of action. You will never be forgotten! Thanks you for your sacrifice and all you have given! And Welcome home!!!

There can never be enough awareness of how that shit WILL kill you.

Where do the 2014 and 2015 classes post their roll call?

click on 2014 quit groups and 2015 quit groups in the quitter group section and the tabs will open up for the individual months in each year

I only see 2007 to 2013 when I click quit groups. Weird.
