Addicted to chewing tobacco??

I'm Rob and I'm an addict. :p

30 friggin' years of putting a pinch between my cheek and gum. I tried the Nicorette but, then, I couldn't kick that. This is how bad it is.... I'll have a chew in as soon as I leave my dentist, after a cleaning. :( What I like about it is, it mellows me out and perks me up at the same time. I'm going to feel like a complete moron if I ever get cancer.

**puts in fresh chew**

    One thing I have going for me is I don't spit, at all (NO SMART ASS REMARKS, PLEASE). I think my salivary glands died, long ago. The spit cups are gross and give us respnsible chewers a bad name. :D

    Same here. Both my roommates dipped. Those god damn cups of black spit would be all over the house. The worst was getting up the next day after a party and knocking one of the cups over.

    Ouch, I hope you can quit. It's a difficult thing to do. All I can say is, just dont buy the stuff and everything else will fall into place...

    Which does give rise to an excellent metaphor: "In the Sergio Leone movie that is life..." :D English degree, here I come!

    Actually, I once quit for 13 months. Then, one day I'm in a 7-11 and just decided to buy a can. Why, I don't know. Kinda like an alcoholic deciding to have "just one" drink.....

    :D

    I'm going to actually use that.

    To be fair, most of his films seem like a lifetime. Once Upon A Time In America is like, 4 hours long? :o Great though...

    Do they even sell chewing tobacco anywhere else or is it just America?

    That sounds like a really nasty habit, and the descriptions of the spit cups is fucking nasty.

    I wish you luck in kicking that habit imalive.

    I did smoke from ages 16-23 and I kicked the habit cold turkey with determination and some seclusion from social situations.

    I don't swallow it. I don't produce any spit. I just sits in my mouth, giving me a cancerous buzz.

    I think maybe it is an American thing because I offered some to a guy in Ireland who wanted to bum a smoke and he was seeing it for the first time. Of course, he tried it! :p

    I do hope you kick it one day. 30 years is too long. Good luck.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    Hahaha, the funny thing is if you had used the phrase "can I bum a smoke" in Ireland you'd have probably ended up in a nasty situation.:)
