[02:29:38] <@blk_jack> Just make sure you have a few articles in mind so when the new site launches I don't kill myself after spiraling into a deep depression from wasting so much time [02:29:49] <lame-> I've got the goods [02:33:40] <lame-> I'll write the article about me intentionally developing a cigarette addiction and quitting [02:33:45] <@blk_jack> Whoa [02:33:45] <@blk_jack> Dude [02:33:48] <@blk_jack> I wanted to do that [02:33:52] <@blk_jack> and talked about it last week [02:33:55] <@blk_jack> Actually discussed it with people [02:33:57] <lame-> :) [02:33:59] <@blk_jack> Just to see if I could [02:34:01] <@blk_jack> Did you actually do this? [02:34:14] <lame-> I'm at about the midway point I guess [02:34:17] <@blk_jack> Oh yea? [02:34:20] <@blk_jack> What's it like? [02:34:32] <lame-> after three or so months I'm at the point now where I have a kind of craving for a smoke [02:34:41] <@blk_jack> How often are you smokng? [02:34:47] <lame-> so in the next probably two weeks I'll go cold turkey [02:34:56] <lame-> uh a pack every three days or so [02:35:01] <@blk_jack> That's pretty hefty [02:35:09] <@blk_jack> Not too shabby [02:35:40] <lame-> So far it's been pretty little physical addiction I think [02:35:46] <lame-> just totally a habitr [02:35:51] <@blk_jack> Is it as bad as all the kids say? [02:35:54] <@blk_jack> The cravings etc? [02:36:13] <lame-> It's like oh shit, I'm out of smokes! [02:36:18] <lame-> Ok got a new pack, it's cool [02:36:45] <lame-> it's kind of interesting socially as well [02:36:49] <@blk_jack> Oh yea? [02:36:51] <lame-> smokerCREW [02:37:12] <lame-> having/lending/sharing a cigarette is like uh some sort of instant bond [02:37:20] <@blk_jack> True [02:37:29] <lame-> man the other day I was coming home at 4am and this kid was sitting on the bridge railing [02:37:42] <lame-> I talked to him and he was like, yep just sitting up here thinking about jumping [02:37:53] <lame-> it was nuts [02:38:15] <lame-> so I offered him a smoke and we talked for like 30 minutes and he bought me breakfast :| [02:38:45] <lame-> we had breakfast for three hours, it was like the most in depth intellectual conversation I've had in years [02:38:49] <lame-> heh [02:38:53] <lame-> the whole story is ridiculous [02:39:18] <lame-> ALL THANKS TO CIGARETTES
