Day 127 - 11/18/13 (yeah a day late)

Yesterday I was late posting roll. Not really late but later than I normally post. My phone whistles and I look at it to see a text from Jeff (Jlud) "where are you at...not like you to have not posted roll yet?"

To which I responded letting him know (pay attention Erussell, Traumagnet & Jake Frawley) I was riding in a tow truck that was pulling my Ford to the service shop.

Cut to 2 hours prior...I was driving through one of the shadiest ghettos in North St. Louis, my truck decides that it is going to start shifting hard...then finally while pressing the gas pedal to leave a stoplight a plume of black smoke exits my tailpipe but my truck lie there motionless. Sounds badass, but will not fucking budge. I get honked at a few times before I motion with one hand with a sign that said "Fuck OFF and go around". I put her in neutral and glide down a slight grade into a parking lot. When I pop the hood the tranny dipstick is puking fluid...for those who are unaware this is very bad and typically means the trans has overheated.

I put a call into a mechanic buddy and he confirms that my truck should not move again under it's own powers. So it is 0630 and I am sitting in a bog white truck in one of the hardest neighborhoods in St. Louis. It took 45 minutes for the tow truck to arrive. He gets there, and then determines that my truck is not going to fit on his truck. "Are you fucking kidding me? When I call and say it is a F350 crew cab long bed you send out a toy tow truck." 20 more minutes pass then the real tow truck gets there...truck envy sets in as this International with a crew cab and a 24' flatbed pulls in front to hook up my truck.

We drive to the shop and I get the diagnosis that tells me that the transmission is totally fucked and I am going to be out anywhere from $5-7K for a new one. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME! Just what I wanted a new transmission for this money pit of a truck. If I wasn't such an idiot and didn't just love the look of the Super Duty trucks and love that throaty grumble from the 6.0L Diesel I would have sold this mofo long ago.

However, yesterday sucked and I was crabby but texts from Jeff and Shane kept me sane. I am still quit, as a matter of fact a dip never crossed my mind because all that I can think of in a time like that is what the good reverend Scowick preaches "One problem + a dip makes two problems".

So FUCK YEAH I am quit, and I give my word that I will remain quit today,

Today, I am happily driving my little economy rental car that could fit into the back of my truck with ease. I feel like Chris Farley but who fucking cares?

>Pinched<

Dude, you are a gun yielding Marine...a bad neighborhood has nothing on you....hell, you could have called me and I would head over and set in the truck with you just to see if we could stir up some trouble...lol...

I know how deep America is ingrained in you and it is very important to me too but I just refuse to buy a domestic vehicle. If it's not made in Germany, it's not in my garage.(I don't think they make a truck though...)

Cool story bro....... 'crackup'

Seriously though, those wins really start to pile up and it feels good to know you can make it through those difficult spots.

How many times in our 120ish days quit here have we seen someone roll back in defeated by their own lack of judgment in a time of stress. A 5 dollar can of poison sure wasn't gonna fix your tranny.

You know I'm QLF with you all day brother!

Day - 130 11/21/13
Yesterday I posted up a Question Of The Day in Oct 2013 "assuming $4 per can how much money have you saved since your quit and how much did you piss away?"

I answered my own question understanding that I was a can a day dipshit for the first year then two cans a day since so I averaged two a day and I came up with a total pissed away of ov $70,000...holy shit! I mean seriously WTF kind of dumbass spends that much money only to risk cancer, tooth decay and bone loss?

Well the answer was me and frankly many of you. I spent the rest of the day absolutely pissed off. Not at tobacco, big tobacco, grandpa (for contributing to my dipshitness) but at myself. Most people's retirement plans pale in comparison to what I spit away. That would almost pay for college for my kids. That would buy all three of them their first car, that would buy me a new truck. That would buy more hunting ground to enjoy with my kids and someday grandkids.

Way an idiot. What an addict. What a dick.

However my day ended helping a fellow quitter who sent a group text that I responded to, that prompted hi calling me a few minutes later. I haven't met his quitter yet but he lives close and as it turns out we know some of the same people.

Yes I was a moron, but I see the light and one day at a time I will get there. I will not see that $70K again but I can see my white teeth now!

Why should you reach beyond 100?

Early in my quit I foresaw I would hit 100 days and then eventually I would no longer need KTC. Than again I was a helmet wearing, fog headed idiot then too. I started slow adding about a quit group a day that I would post roll with. I didn't just randomly pick groups to quit with. I started by using those other group post as my way to thank other quitters for helping me along the way. First it was the 2013 groups and then it branched into the other years all through using the site, meeting people in chat or using the phone numbers exchanged.

I have to say though why continuing to post beyond my 100th day is important to me and why I think all of you newbies should think it through:
A - I know my ass could not have made it past the first month without posting daily, or at least sending a text to ask another quitter to post for me. But that is OK, when you hit 100 days you are cured. WRONG! I still get cravings, I still get urges some days suck but I have more good days than I do bad ones.

B - So you posted roll daily and then hit your HOF and faded away, no one else should be affected. WAY WRONG! If you are one of the first people to hit the HOF there are 30 more days of quitters behind you waiting to do the same. If you watched your group dwindle from 100 to half that in less than 20 days would you lack some motivation? Did you make any new friends that faded, would your family leave you, did you leave a soldier behind?

C - All of those other quitters that post with your group daily, why do they do that? Have you ever looked through the older groups and see how many of them are less than 10 posters? See they feel and have felt it too. Perhaps they post with your group because they want to inspire, they want to let you know they care, they hate seeing people cave. Hell perhaps some of them are just bored assholes that have nothing better to do but stcnk their nose into your business. "How dare them, stick their noses into your group...we are the (insert any Pre-HOF quit group name here) and they don't know us"...I call BULLSHIT! They do know you, they were you. It may have been a month ago or 10 years ago but yeah they get it. They want to help you and in turn most of them have learned that when they help one quitter at a time that is now one more person that will help keep them accountable too.

D - Posting roll after you hit your HOF if your daily chance to brag to everyone that you hit 100 days and you quit cold fucking turkey. Look at the percentages of people that actually hit that mark, you should be proud, be loud about it too for your own sake.

E - So you have continued to post and you see some of your group dropping off. Now this is a great chance for you to save a life and possibly even your own some day. Send them a text, not being an asshole but congratulating them on their day count, perhaps poking them to say hey bud...you still quit? Trust me it works. They are thankful to you and let's be honest that is one of your brothers or sisters.

Look at some of the recent cavers, and what happened to them. They fucked up and did the minimums and then faded, where are they now? "Back in the SUCK?"

When you get a chance to tell someone thank you or I am sorry do it. When you fuck up and all of us do as we are human, own up to your brothers and sisters. No matter what group you are in you are a KTC quitter until you are not. That is what the brotherhood is all about. Families are full of various age groups, some crazies, some assholes, some outspoken individuals, some inseparable friends, and all other kinds of people. However, no matter what when you are open and honest with them and with yourself this family will fight for you and with you.

I choose to fight with all of you today! Be prepared though, you pick on my brothers or sisters and I will be ready and willing to fight to keep the sanctity of my family together. I now see that I owe my new life to KTC, so...thank you Veterans, Newbies, brothers and sisters.

E - So you have continued to post and you see some of your group dropping off.  Now this is a great chance for you to save a life and possibly even your own some day.  Send them a text, not being an asshole but congratulating them on their day count, perhaps poking them to say hey bud...you still quit?  Trust me it works.  They are thankful to you and let's be honest that is one of your brothers or sisters.

Look at some of the recent cavers, and what happened to them.  They fucked up and did the minimums and then faded, where are they now?  "Back in the SUCK?" 

When you get a chance to tell someone thank you or I am sorry do it.  When you fuck up and all of us do as we are human, own up to your brothers and sisters.  No matter what group you are in you are a KTC quitter until you are not.  That is what the brotherhood is all about.  Families are full of various age groups, some crazies, some assholes, some outspoken individuals, some inseparable friends, and all other kinds of people.  However, no matter what when you are open and honest with them and with yourself this family will fight for you and with you.

I choose to fight with all of you today!  Be prepared though, you pick on my brothers or sisters and I will be ready and willing to fight to keep the sanctity of my family together.  I now see that I owe my new life to KTC, so...thank you Veterans, Newbies, brothers and sisters.

Why should you reach beyond 100?

Early in my quit I foresaw I would hit 100 days and then eventually I would no longer need KTC.  Than again I was a helmet wearing, fog headed idiot then too.  I started slow adding about a quit group a day that I would post roll with.  I didn't just randomly pick groups to quit with.  I started by using those other group post as my way to thank other quitters for helping me along the way.  First it was the 2013 groups and then it branched into the other years all through using the site, meeting people in chat or using the phone numbers exchanged. 

I have to say though why continuing to post beyond my 100th day is important to me and why I think all of you newbies should think it through:
A - I know my ass could not have made it past the first month without posting daily, or at least sending a text to ask another quitter to post for me.  But that is OK, when you hit 100 days you are cured.  WRONG!  I still get cravings, I still get urges some days suck but I have more good days than I do bad ones.

B - So you posted roll daily and then hit your HOF and faded away, no one else should be affected.  WAY WRONG!  If you are one of the first people to hit the HOF there are 30 more days of quitters behind you waiting to do the same.  If you watched your group dwindle from 100 to half that in less than 20 days would you lack some motivation?  Did you make any new friends that faded, would your family leave you, did you leave a soldier behind? 

C - All of those other quitters that post with your group daily, why do they do that?  Have you ever looked through the older groups and see how many of them are less than 10 posters?  See they feel to have felt it too.  Perhaps they post with your group because they want to inspire, they want to let you know they care, they hate seeing people cave.  Hell perhaps some of them are just bored assholes that have nothing better to do but stink their nose into your business.  How dare the, stick their noses into your group...we are the (insert any Pre-HOF quit group name here) and they don't know us...I call BULLSHIT!  They do know you, they were you.  It may have been a month ago or 10 years ago but yeah they get it.  They want to help you and in turn most of them have learned that when they help one quitter at a time that is now one more person that will help keep them accountable too.

I really don't understand the recent events. I'm just a simple guy from the heart of America, so maybe in too much of a simpleton. But...

I have posted for 334 days in a row. From the east coast. From the west coast. North and south. At stop lights. In elevators. And on airplanes just before taking off. It takes a minute, so how people can stop using the best free insurance for a minute a day is beyond me.

What is even more baffling... There is no way I could post my word and then come back and say... "Oh hi pinched. Day 1. I know I gave you my word and you've spent a boatload of your valuable time investing in me, but I decided that I'd rather invite cancer to my life today. So fuck you. Have a great day! Worktowin. "

I just don't get it. Those first 50 days were like a prolonged colonoscopy. Utterly miserable. Why would anyone want to go through that hell again? Your daily post, the best insurance policy ever, will keep you from repeating that misery.

Proud to be on your team again today. You are the embodiment of what this site is all about.

I am cured. I hit 100 days after dipping/chewing for 15 + years. Yeah get the F out of here with that logic. I agree with w2w and pinched. I am addicted to posting roll as much as I am addicted to nicotine. Yeah the shit has not touched my lips for 188 days now. But I know I am 5 bucks and a bad decision from seeing it crumble. So I post roll every damn day. Cheap and free insurance. Once I give my word it's curtains for the nic bitch for that day.

Bingo pinch. This ^^^^^^ is right on the money. One thing I think about all the time is i'm 282 days quit. Why do I continue to post roll, read new intros and help with newbies? Sometimes the newbies piss me off or play quit for a while and vanish. Then I think, why do I even bother?.? Then I realize the answer is in my question.

1'm 282 days quit. How and why i've made it this far is because of all the things i've been doing on this site for 282 days. Why in the heck would I change that?

The fact is i'm still addicted and why would I listed to the same thinking that kept me using for 25 years?

I'm going to continue doing the things i've done for 282. My guess is i'll make it to 283 because i'm staying with what works. I'm going to continue to quit with people like you pinch. The people that have helped me for every single one of those days. i'm not listening to my addicted idiot mind. I'm digging deep on this one. Staying with what works. Quit with you any day pinch.

Yep, I agree with you guys. At what other venture, in your life, would you find something that makes you successful, do it for a certain amount of days, quit doing it and expect to stay successful?

I scratch my head every time I see someone hit HOF and then see them say that they are not signing up for 200 but will pop in now and then for roll.

Hell, I guess that some just don't want to stay successful....

You guys got it.

I always liken this to one of my favorite quotes.

The Definition of Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results

Well turn this around for the good. People post roll and stay here and are quit. If it works why change? Why in the hell would you want to stop? If anyone can tell me this, they are much more insightful than I.

Today I will do the same thing I have been doing for 510 days, and today I stand beside you pinched, srans and anyone else who really wants it.
