Now we have a cancer that is killing curvedspace too?

I'm flattered that you mention how CurvedSpace is comprised of only myself, as if it were me that made up the community. How thoughtful of you. Thank you.

Powdered glass, black cloves. Same thing.

Essentially, yes. I had someone throw a 360 controller at my head tonight 'cause I asked for a cigurret without thinking "Oh wait. I just ejected a gallon of blood from my lungs two nights ago." SO he heaved it at me in jest.

He hit me, though.

Dead on.

Hurt like a sumbish.

Oh no, he's not saying you're the only member here. I'm no internetologist, but I believe he's referencing a tired meme that originated around 2006 with the fact that not only does smoking give you cancer, but that your lungs are bleeding.



Also, lol @ projectile 360controller marksmanship.

[Atilla]

I didn't know it was that tired of a meme.

But, yeah. Wasn't meant to offend or anything Mike. =\

Oh forgive me! I must have responded to that incorrectly on so many levels. I took no offense and wasn't being sarcastic. Hehe.

From what I read, I was thinking "Oh! Curvedspace has cancer, and my lungs are bleeding. I must be all that Curvedspace is! Curvedspace is nothing without me!"

It was an interesting take on your play of words. There is nothing to apologize for.

And my head has a bump the size of a Sunday Revival thread post on the back. It hurts like HELL.

[Darkness]

So like, I totally figured out what was up with it.

Yeah. I know. It's bad. But an addiction is an addiction. And I just now recall what could be the culprit. Snowy, take heed.

Black Clove cigarettes. They do it. I guess it's an offset of the taste and flavor. It's something I grew quite fond of, but a coworker reminded me that use should stay minimal at best. There are chemicals in those things that make your lungs bleed on contact.

'Lo and behold, here I am. A handful of blood and a helluva mess to clean up. For real guys. I told myself I wasn't gonna get addicted. I did. I'm breaking it, but once you get on the stuff, it's really hard to get off. I can't really condemn anyone that does it, because it'd be hypocritical of me to say so. Best I can do is encourage whoever to not do it. 'Cause while it honestly does knock stress down a few stories, it's got some bad stuff that comes with it. I'm working on cutting out, but it's a lot harder than I thought it was gonna be.

Woooo. Bleach time.

I love how responsive you are to this topic.

[Atilla]

Btw I'm glad this thread came around just as I was considering swapping my american spirits for kreteks.

So, you're not the only nicotine slave Mike.

Curing nicotine addictions since 1911.

Black Cloves? {expletive hax0rd by Cspace}. I used to smoke those...

Can't afford Spirits. And no, you're not the only nicotine slave. I tried switching to lights, but after awhile I just started tearing the filter without realizing it. I refuse to quit cold turkey, because I've seen so many people attempt it, not have the will power, and go back to it in full force and more.

With me, smoking is a love/hate kind of thing. I make a {expletive hax0rd by Cspace}load of money off them at school, and in the day I can't help but think "This isn't that bad for me." Of course, when I say this, I do my best not to recall the mornings when I wake up with what feels like half my lungs in my mouth. Maybe I should just not be a cheap {expletive run over by Cspace} and go for the Spirits.

In all honesty, I don't think they're much safer as they're still cigs, though I have no basis for comparison with other brands. They're all I've ever smoked. I do like to think that having no additives matters, but it's the tar content that really kills from what I understand, and actually spirits have more tobacco and therefore more tar. So I'm not really sure.

On the money side though, I think I actually save from smoking spirits. Since they have more tobacco to compensate for the lack of additives, I probably smoke less a day than as I would with like kools or whatever.

[Snowy]

I heard that the tar content was less but my sister probably doesn't know what the hell she's talking about. I get Crush or Reds, mostly because of promotions. Lol. I am a promotion whore.

[Res]

Oh you guys can just eat it. Talking about those around me. I haven't had one in almost a week and it's like a steering wheel in my pants.

... Driving me nuts insane.

A pirate walks into a bar. The bartender asks, "Why the hell is there a captain's wheel attached to the front of your trousers?" The pirate replies, "yar, it's drivin' me nuts."
