How to save money
How to save money
Now that I have kicked my soda habit (three weeks ago), I am saving
roughly $170 a month simply buy not buying that stuff. This got me to
thinking of former smokers.
Let's say the average online price for a pack of cancer sticks is $3.00
and a moderately addicted former nicotine addicted smoked two packs a
day, then that would equate to around $168 savings per month, or $2,016
annually. What could you nicotine addicts do with that money? $2,016
would pay for a vacation or maybe be useful toward the purchase of a new
car, or saving for your kids' college tuition.
It seems to me that $2,016 is a heck of a lot of money to burn up just
so you can avoid the symptoms of nicotine withdraw. If I can give up
diet soda, surely with your vast intellectual prowess, you nicotine
addicts can shed your smoking addiction too.
Hmm. I wonder how long it will take Schizo Nizo to reply with a silly
retort with his bogus Usenet posting stats for me.

Hey! Whoa!! Hold on their pudge-boy!! You've been telling The BIG N
that you weren't into junk! Now you finally admit to your "soda"
habit. So The BIG N was right all along! (no surprise there) I suspect
very soon you'll bring forth similar awakenings and revelations about
your Twinkie, Big Mac, and cheese-fry addiction. Can anyone imagine
this poor sick hypocrite spending all that money to pour some of the
worst foul crap into his system. And of course now that he's broken
his own habit (so sez he, LOL). of course, his own addled mind, it
gives him the further reason to troll and pontificate. See what
happens when he refuses to get therapy? The juggernaut feeds itself.
Mindless Troll Shane is really no different than his gal-pal sisters-
in-arms who also troll here. They are a bundle of personal problems
and issues whose one catharsis, among many, is trolling newsgroups. In
their own warped and haunted little minds, they feel they've
accomplished something. Yeah, okay.
> This got me to
> thinking of former smokers.
Gee he's taking a little time out of his day to mull over the
"smoking" concept. Imagine. LOL!

I'll give the idiot this much credit, he's picking up on his own
straight lines. And he knows The BIG N is always close by.LOL!
Oh well, Twinkie-monger, ask and ye shall have. Don't ask and ye shall
have anyway. The BIG N is just one swell accommodating guy!!
42, 615 troll-droppings on 600+ newsgroups and 123 for June already.
Your per day June numbers (12.3) are about the same as your "soda" and/
or twinkie intake numbers.
The BIG N - waiting for Troll Shane's Twinkie fess-up.

I am not into junk food. Diet Soda has zero calories and zero fat, and
that's what I have been drinking for the past 20 years or so. I haven't
haven't had regular soda in many, many years. I gave up regular soda due
to all the calories in it. Besides, nothing I have ever eaten or drank
has ended up in the lungs, skin, and clothes like the dirty stench of
your cheap burnt tobacco.
Even diet soda is not healthy, but it certainly doesn't cause weight
gain. I gave up diet soda on the advise of my doctor because the
carbonation and caffeine in it cause stomach problems. Unlike you, I
took my doctor's advise by giving up something that I really enjoy and
have been consuming for decades.
You are apparently too weak-minded to give up smoking your cheap noxious
cigars and cigarettes. You are obviously weak-minded and a liar. If you
were such a champion of will power, you would have already given up
smoking your disgusting cigarettes and cigars.
In fact, you remind me of Home Simpson! I bet you are also grossly
overweight. Admit it, you're a real jumbo! That's why you conveniently
didn't see my challenge for you to meet me in New York City, even though
you took your precious time to reply to that message.

Oh well, hot damn "diet soda", pardon me. I didn't realize that you
alternative drink was a 20 year indulgence of nutrition and
nourashment. How silly of me!

Nope, just your paunch, bad skin, organs, colon, arteries and fat-
cell. That sounds like a reasonable alternative. Silly rationalizing
dink.

Hey, at $13.00 bucks minimum a stick, I wouldn't call my tobacco
cheap. Now an 89 cent twinkie, well . . .

Wrong doctor "give-us-your-medical-history-guy". You should have been
seeking the advice of a shrink.

My doctors are cigar smokers, what can I say

$13.00+ a pop.

Will power has nothing to do with it, naive doofus

Yet another TV/show biz reference from our resident sophisticated and

Well that certainly makes sense! A decline to meet Troll Shane because
of a weight issue. However, I'll be whatever makes you comfortable in
fantasizing. That is after all your forte, so why stop with me.
I still don't know what you are talking about regarding NYC. You want
to meet me? What is it about me that would make you think that I'd
want to punish myself with such a horrible experience.
Besides, wimpy, the first time you even hinted at the trolling
rudeness, ignorance, and stupidity that you display here, you'd be
scrambling for your hospital insurance. But if you insist . . .
TBN - man, how goofy is this guy??!!

That's the point troll-boy. The numbers, the decisions, the choices

especially when you seldom have your thoughts in order.
Silly doofus.
