for 2011, me and 2 friends wanted to stop smoking. we made the decision.. hmm.. 30 minutes before the clock said 0.00, actually. x) 

  the good thing: none of us did smoke the last 72ish Hours.. but it gets haaarder.. they smoke 2 years longer than i do, so it may be even harder for them, and yupp - they are QQ'ing over PSN Mails how badly they want a cigarette. :D i reply with 'nah, its okay with me., u r a noob. keep up.' because i know if i reply in the same way, someone will start again and drag the motivation of the other 2 down..

so yeah, i never imagined that it would be that hard. ^^ and i am only smoking for 5 years or so (i wonder how hard it would be in 10 years omfg). anyone here who has gone through the same crap has some  words of motivation :>?

My grandpa smoked for 30 years, and then died of lung cancer.

But quiting gaming is hard . . .

Good job! My dad freaked out a couple years ago because his dad and grandpa both died of lung cancer in their 50s. He quit a whileeeeee ago.

*looks around.*

3 dead people in 2 postings?.. damn, i am motivated to stop now. O_o.. my condolence's to both of ya.

.. even if i dont want to imagine myself in 30-40 years.. :I

my grandfather's been smoking for over 50 years...I want him to stop, frankly i'm surprised he's still kickin after I see people who've died  smoking only after a year or two, or worse, by second-hand smoke.(not that I want him to die or any time soon)

I don't think I'll ever pick up smoking.

good luck though.

I wish you the best of luck!  If you really want a deterrant, here goes:

That's right...those cigarettes you used to smoke are so disgusting that this lady smokes them through the hole in her neck.

Dude, smoking isnt that bad. Chain smoking whats gonna kill you.

If I felt like wasting my time, I would go find an article that shows how even smoking 1 cigarette a day probably massively increases your chances for this cancer and that cancer and some other random cancer and all sorts of other diseases.  But clearly somebody that thinks smoking isn't that bad will never understand.

Edit: I decided I felt like wasting my time, so here's an article about 1-4 packs per day, which is considered light smoking.

Wow 1 - 4 packs a day? That'd be fugging expensive!

And the sun gives you cancer. So i should avoid the sun to then right? hahahaha
