Time for another bloomer thread in which we post about the good stuff. Be it something big, like a major breakthrough with your org, some good news you want to share, or even something small like “hey, look at this cute bug!”. This is a thread where we take a short moment to spread some joy in some very dark times. So if you have something nice to share, share it!
this month marks eight years since I quit smoking/went nic free.
Same since Nov 2024. I told a coworker who’s trying to quit that she’s gonna go through many years before the urge really goes away, insofar that it ever does. She didnt like that news, but the truth is necessary. Good on you comrade, I hope I’ll be able to say the same
I had angry cravings for a dart for like 5 years afterwards. I even had a dream where I was smoking and woke up with my hand near my mouth like I was taking a drag.
It’s tempered down considerably since, like I have a random thought about having one but then the smell of a cigarette or someone walking by who smells like a wet ashtray just pulls me right back to disgust again.
Honestly were I still drinking booze I might likely have not quit. A dart and a beer goes together like a piss and a fart, pardon the crudeness. I honestly think I had to do both to be successful.
Stay strong. You’ll get there.
Damn that’s impressive!
Ooh, I wasn’t paying enough attention and missed the last one. Pretty certain this hottie is different than the cutie, but I caught a sunbather:
Pointy!
