yeah i have a clean spit, usually through my teeth so it doesn't get those giant wads, for a newbie, tonsof I'd definately try citrus skoal "pouches" there's like 20 in a tin, then work up to the long cut. pouches are clean so no irritated throat if you swallow. Don't swallow for a few weeks, cuz you'll probably vomit. I don't vomit unless I"m sick but i was still pretty cautious!! Now when I'm at school in pe i spit but i swallow in class.

i enjoy a nice fresh hand rolled cigarette every once in a while, when **** gets tough, but almost never beyond that. i think i have smoked twice for the sake of being social. if your smoking because you feel like it or you crave it, you need to start thinking about quiting before it kills you.

To smokers and chewers the whole world is a trash can, butts and wads everywhere. I used to do it too. One day my little girl ran up to give me a hug and almost got my cig in her face. That was it for me, I stopped the next day cold turkey (2 1/2 packs a day). At $4 a pack I'd much rather have a brand new Z.

Chewing....never had the urge to put that crap in my mouth...Smoking I smoked 10 years...and quit December 23, 2005 7pm...cold turkey...But I only smoked less than a pack a day..Unless I was stressing... Then it was a little more..Or when I was drinking..I would smoke more...So glad to not have that expensive disgusting habit..

Bull, I'm 19 and I'm like a million times smarter than you. You make my IQ look like it's off the charts. It's not even about car knowledge either, I'm a huge n00b but I try. I'm talking about smarts in general. Did your mother smoke or drink while she was expecting?

I'm not talking about your maturity level either, you just seem retarded. And btw, GPA doesn't impress me at all. GPA inflation has been on the rise for a long time and it isn't really a measure of how smart you are. Neither is the ASVAB, the ASVAB is made to see if you're smart enough to hold a gun and if you score high all it means is you get to specialize in a certain area of the military.

I'm immature as hell too, but you're just a retard.

GPAs only count when you are taking hard classes.
I could take **** classes and get a 4.0 (5.0 if they were **** AP classes)

ARTS & Crafts gpa of 4.0

=

Engineering gpa of 2.0

done.

that GPA inflation is true. i didn't crack a book all through high school and still made out with a 3.3. but it got me into a good mech. eng. program, so i'm satisfied. the working starts next year...
but as dumb as i am, i still find myself a bit too smart to smoke and chew... no offense, because i don't want to make enemies here. but that is my view

same, not a single read through HS and made it with a 3.5 in honors classes and a 27 on the ACT. now in college i fluctuate between a 2.7 and a 3.4 lol. i dont like studying or going to class..... there i said it! and ray had a few noob moments but at least he was abled to get the 260 running unlike someone who gave up on carbs...... anyways... i think this thread is about nicotine addiction so lets get back on that.
