Okay, there is no excuse not to quit smoking-- now we have
"the patch" it gives you the drug you crave. But, any smoker
will tell you "I miss the *act* of smoking, the *ritual*"
Well, here's a ritual for you: nicotine injections that look
almost like heroin! Not only will it give you a better
rush
(instead of a steady stream of nicotine like the patch), but
it
will preserve your badass image while keeping your lungs
free
of tar. Imagine the looks on the faces of people at work
when
you pull out the needles! Then you can say:
"Oh, it's no big deal .. I'm quitting."
heh heh heh
Coming soon: snortable nicotine that looks like coke

Sounds good, but it doesn't replicate the *act* of smoking, which act is perhaps the hardest thing to give up (aside from the drug itself, I guess). |

toothpicks aren't badass. |

While I cannot find anything to support this, recently, sometime in, say, the last month, I read a news article citing a new report linking nicotine itself to lung cancer. |

So bad I have to vote for it! |

The pure extract of one cig, crystaline nicotine could kill a horse if injected into a vein, let alone a person. |

Concentrated nicotine is a deadly poison, it causes arythmia, caridiac arrest, and is neurotoxic. concenrtrated Nicotine is used as an insecticide |

I think I speak for the medical community when I say that smoking nicotine (or heroin) is probably better for you than injecting it. The biggest worry (medically speaking) with heroin is the chance of disease involved with sharing dirty needles. Also, think of how many times a day you smoke. 20? 30? That many intravenous injections would a) ruin your veins - all of them, b) expose you to infection so many times that it's almost inevitable that you would develop serious, life threatening bacterial sepsis or a communicable disease from needle sharing. So please smoke it, chew it, patch it, inhale it, or stick it up your butt, just don't inject it!
P.S. Nicotine constricts your blood vessels and makes your penis smaller. -True fact.
P.P.S. Hemlock is converted into nicotine in the digestive tract. Anyone know why someone would eat hemlock? Think Socrates. |

//Anyone know why someone would eat hemlock? //There is that movie "Excaliber" which does present some positive uses of hemlock in moderation if I am not misremembering. (The side effects of nicotine use are probably those) Penis smaller?, Bah ha ha ha ha ha! Why don't you stick to the facts jack? I am not really that old and now must regularly see a cardiologist due mostly to (in my take) modern day stress, but also the damages imparted upon me by my friends that end in "ine" (caffiene, nicotine, <effedrine which I used a long time ago> evil boss is mine, etc.). It seems to me that nicotine has actually prolonged the act of you know what and if the constriction of blood vessels makes that big of a difference that's hard for me to believe. |
