Default 1000 Homeless Cigarettes

Three weeks, four days, 12 minutes and 49 seconds. 1000 gross tasting and
smelling cigarettes not smoked, saving a ton of money (except now I am
eating more candy bars), so far it is an amazing $125.04. Productivity not
lost: 3 days, 11 hours, 20 minutes.


Yea Me!

Donnie

Indeed, Donnie --- "Yea you!" 1000 butts not smoked is a fantastic
accomplishment and you are justifiably proud.

Congratulations Donnie! You have a very happy (and lucky) pair of
lungs!

Donnie, you have me giggling at the thought of 1,000 homeless
sickerettes... Excellent way of picturing them. To commemorate this
achievement, the Original Yodeling Gnomes will be arriving to help you
celebrate this achievement with songs of smobriety and 1,000 points of
light.

Good job, Donnie! Won't be long at all before you'll be grabbing that
big shiny M!

Keep up the good work!

Beautiful! No such thing as candy bar butts or candy bar ashes or
second hand chocolate.
I know some one can create some real humor out this.

uh I actually have a bit of a candy bar butt! I love chocolate and when I am
quitting I find that I do tend to eat more of them,the little miniature
ones. one right after the other. I have a bag of them right here. I bought
them today along with my lozenges.

I'd have to disagree with you there, David. In my experience -- at least
eating a candy bar in my car - there is always a little crumb or flake of
chocolate that will fall in your lap, in between your legs, in some
inaccessible or hard to reach place -- especially while you are driving.
You could consider this little flake to be your candy bar butt. This object
creates a "case of candy bar butt," as follows. Now, if this were a pretzel
or potato chip, or some sort of dry nosh, it would not create any long term
problems. However, chocolate has a tendency to soften, melt, and get sat
upon and mushed into the sitter's apparel, thus giving the victim a "case of
candy bar butt," a dark and mushy stain upon the posterior, which can be
very very embarrassing. If your passenger sits on it, it could well be
considered second hand chocolate. Lest you think this is far-fetched, it
happens to me all the time, or at least it did before I started South Beach
and had to give up/limit my chocolate intake. It made for some awkward days
at work where people thought I'd shit myself.

Jaime

I have achieved eight months, two weeks, five days, 22 hours, 31 minutes and
16 seconds, of smoke-free living (and, with it, rather aggressive driving).
This amounts to 7888 cigarettes not smoked, saving $1,873.14, and adding 3
weeks, 6 days, 9 hours, 20 minutes to my fabulous life.

Good job Jaime.
I just knew some with a real sense of humor would be able to do
something with that.
I have seen all that you describe but had not thought of it.

I like to eat those fireballs. They really help with the cravings.
