So I tried smoking (tobacco ) cigs just for fun and to prove to I could withhold from their delightful effects. Well I smoked several over a couple nights and I have absolutely no addictive response to them. Probably a biochemical genetic boon but I think I'll just attribute it to my god like willpower instead

Also you know those current anti smoking commercials were the teens get an alien hand that pops out of their back to make them smoke?! I'd totally risk lung cancer for an awesome extra alien appendage. To me thats a plus. Avast me alien pirate hybrids, no extra appendage was to be had in my testing.

So is anyone else trying to quit smoking? Look I'll show you how easy it is, boom, I just quit again. Rematch? Quit! I win again, haha!

wooÐs

Now try the same thing with cocaine. Let us know how it goes.

That is allegedly in my future plans actually! But I'll stop at heroin-crack hybrid.

I quit once, too. Right after I tried it once.

When I was 11yo, my same-age cousin and my younger brother and I were given money to go to the Saturday afternoon matinee at the local movie house in Toronto, so instead we each bought a pack of cigs, I think I had Rothmann's, and went prowling around High Park until we each smoked the whole pack. Then I quit, never to smoke cigs again...though the head buzz variety is still enjoyable for medical reasons that I cannot divulge due to privacy issues.

I quit every single day when I sleep.

I lol'd, hadnt heard that one before..so an alien appendage doesn't wake you up in the middle of the night to make you smoke?! I feel lied to and violated by the Truth commercials. Someone save my tears

I've trained the appendage, but do have to drug him on occasion.

Be careful, this appendage may become yours. He can be very sneaky.

The people most prone to addiction are the ones who think they are immune to it.

You may find yourself repeating your experiment with alarming regularity in the near future.
