Day 1249.

I came here to quit.

I was taught very early that being quit required 2 things: brotherhood (helping others quit, be it by saying really important and prudent stuff, texting, etc) and accountability (being on roll call everyday, looking out for my brothers, keeping my word, etc).

Accountability - I have NEVER missed a single day of roll call in those 1249. Feel free to check. I have and will continue to argue the importance of daily roll call to anyone - ANYONE. I will continue to freely give out my number to anyone who wants to continue increasing my web of accountability.

Brotherhood - I am not looking to add names to my rolodex, I am looking to build brotherhood. These folks that share this webspace with me, most of whom I have never and will never meet in person, have had more impact on my life than people I see for hours on end every day. I had to go to an unlimited text plan way back when because some of us found that we have a lot of common interests and text like crazy. I laugh my ass of most days at the funny shit people text randomly.

You know what? I came here to quit, and I am. I am not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but I strive to do what I can here to help, and will continue to do so until I cannot do it anymore.

I will continue to pass on the lessons taught to me by all those who learned them first and passed them on. Ready, Skoal Monster, Show, Nolaq, the original 7, and countless others - either by direct contact or by reading words you have posted on these here forums - you have given me a path to freedom and I promise to continue to walk it with my head held high and show others to the best of my ability. I owe this site my very life, and I will treat it as such.

Roll call is not a responsibility, it is a privilege and an honor. It is something more than an anon screen name on some forum. It is a solemn promise to brothers that must be honored if you have any pride or guts. I give my promise freely everyday. I expect nothing in return except your promise to do the same.
One of the best things Ive read recently. No bullshit, Just quitting. Rock on J2B!!!
Josh was the first to support my weak ass when I finally decided to quit like fuck versus wear a band-aid. This post has my 100% support, and I will QLF with Josh every damn day.

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.

j2b #3 due late January/Early Feb. Selfishly, I hope #3 is born on 1/23/15. My 4 year anniversary from telling big tobacco and nicotine to go get fucked.

#1 is really hoping its a girl, but he has a back up plan - he is planning on selling #2 if #3 is a boy. 'no'

#2 is just excited, but doesnt really no why. He does like helping out with babies at the daycare. 'help'

Mom really wants a girl, but lets just say my gene pool churns out way more dudes then chicks. We shall see.

I am perfectly happy with fat and healthy baby.

We are pretty sure its not twins, though they run strong in both families and its way to early to be certain.
Awesome brother! Gratz to you and your family!
Congrats bro! Three kids tells me you have a mental deficiency, but happy for you anyway!

QLF with you today and thanks for everything you do for the noobs on this site.

Original and remix. Both should be listened to at high volume, preferably in a residential neighborhood.
This beat gets me so fired up. Thanks for posting J2B

Best thing I have read on KTC...Submitted by tgafish on 7/3/14

Former Skoal Straight and Cope Longcut user that started at the age of 12. QUIT on 7/15/13
