    Default No more fags...

    I've been talking about quitting smoking for ages now, and I've decided that the 1st of January IS IT this time. No more excuses. At all!

    Anyone else?

    Yeah I thought of that, but thought it might prove 'interesting'.

    I can change the title if need be...

    No, just worry about it so much that you have to reach for the sticks of death to calm yourself down.

    I can change the tittle if need be...
    Yeah, you could change the "tittle", but i don't see why you can be expected to make allowance for every bit of slang language on the planet.

    Well I smoked for 14 years... roll-ups mostly. Gave up 3½ years ago. Don't miss it at all. None of the 'cures' or patches work. You just grit your teeth and go cold turkey. And you have to do it for yourself and no-one else. Good luck Mike! You can definitely do it if I could

    It's a filthy and disgusting habit, Mike, so give it up.

    There are no plus sides to smoking whatsoever and society is becoming more and more intolerant of it (a very good thing!). It'd ban it outright if I had my way. You'll be healthier and wealthier, too: a win-win scenario in anyone's book.

    Spend the money you save on something really nice instead and you'll never look back

    A tittle is a small distinguishing mark, such as a diacritic or the dot on a lowercase i or j. The tittle is an integral part of the glyph of i and j, but diacritic dots can appear over other letters in various languages. The tittle of i or j is omitted when a diacritic is placed in the tittle's usual position (as í or ĵ), but not when the diacritic is elsewhere (as į, ɉ), and traditionally not in Vietnamese.
