Sounds like something out of a trendy Northern California wine spa resort. Hmmm...

Why yes, I would love the 2007 Cab Sav cleanse.

I spent years trying to quit until I eventually was able to make it stick. I haven't had a cigarette in over 8 years at this point. I can't even begin to imagine doing something that might put me back where I started after I spent so much time and effort getting away from that nasty habit. But I am curious about wine enemas. Are there suggested pairings? For example, would you use a white if you ate seafood the night before?

I would think beer would be easier to do. Start out with a nutty brown ale.

And shake well before using.

Ah, the "Rocket Enema". I've heard that that's the new cool thing to do.

Never heard of this and did a quick Google......WOW!

I really do live a simple life compared to others. I need to get out of my comfort zone a bit more I guess.

I don't think shooting liquor up your butt is within anyone's comfort zone.

Yeah, skip the beer and wine and just start with coffee.

You misspelled "intestines".

I should probably add that I am, of course, excluding Germany from my assertion.

No thank you. Hot coffee up the keester sounds painful.

If you were trying to quit smoking maybe vaping would make sense. Otherwise it is a stupid idea.

CNN

A Juul representative repeatedly told a ninth-grade classroom that the company's e-cigarette was "totally safe" before showing underage students the device, according to two teenagers who testified under oath to Congress on Wednesday.
...
One of the teens who testified on Wednesday, 17-year-old Caleb Mintz, said a Juul representative spoke to his class as part a "mental health [and] addiction seminar" where teachers were asked to leave the room.

The representative mentioned his connection to Juul, Mintz said, and the comments on e-cigarette safety were met with a "sigh of relief" among his classmates who were already vaping.

In a statement, Juul said the presentation was part of a "short-lived Education and Youth Prevention Program which was ended in September 2018 after its purpose -- to educate youth on the dangers of nicotine addiction -- was clearly misconstrued."

Seems legit.

MOU (PDF) wherein Juul pays $10K to a school to get to program students.

It's a disturbing read.

Cold brew is the way to go. Work your way up a frappuccino.

Jeff V · Post by **Jeff V** » Fri Jul 26, 2019 12:49 pm

Cold coffee is just nasty.

Daehawk · Post by **Daehawk** » Fri Jul 26, 2019 1:22 pm

cold and sweet is the only way i can drink coffee unless its free and I have nothing else and its early morning. Then it has to be some coffee with my milk and sugar.

Daehawk wrote: ↑Sun Oct 23, 2016 6:02 amI dont need a new habit but if I got it it would be without the nicotine and simply for the wonderful smells you can get and to just have the little habit of something to do at the pc and such with my hands.

Being a movie fan, I've read a bit on the filmmaking process. In acting I think they refer to it as 'business', what an actor does with their hands while they are acting out the scene. You ever notice actors usually aren't just standing there, but instead are preoccupied with something as they say their lines? In The Godfather, Marlon Brando is holding and petting a cat in one scene, that's 'business'.

So I get where you're coming from on that. I'm a coffee guy, so my business is my coffee cup. Drinking coffee isn't everyone's cup of tea though, so maybe vaping is a better choice. I'd be leery about smoking anything, if health is a concern, but vaping doesn't seem as bad as cigarettes to me. One thing I know about vaping, if you use proper components you should have no problems. The explosions during vaping always seem to happen to people who've modded their vaping equipment and did it wrong or used cheap components.

And it took years for normal cigarettes to start showing ill effects.

Im not supporting vaping but 8 teens in one spot sounds more likely something else or some bad vape juice. Otherwise the country would be overflowing with others like them.

This is a state where, when the rest of the country was banning smoking from restaurants and bars, had signs posted in every restaurant and bar stating "Smoking Allowed".

I remember after I quit smoking and then eating in joints that still had smoking sections. Even across the room I couldn't stand it. Hated the smell. Could barely eat. Once me, my wife, and my in laws all went to a steak house and they packed us into the smoking section. Good Lord that was a bad experience.

Given your financial situation, do you really need a habit that costs money? You need every dollar you have just to get by it seems to me.

The original question is several years old. He already made the smart decision.

Daehawk nmy opinion is that you could kill yourself vaping. In addition to being long term deadly, nicotine is a vasoconstrictor (sp?) This is just a fancy way of saying it narrows the blood vessels and increases blood pressure. I know you have a self destructive streak right now and this may sound good but a stroke or heart attack probabally wont kill you right away. You could just wind up totally paralyzed, blind, locked inside your own head waiting to die. Or hospitalized for a long time totally miserable.

Dude. I'm going to be direct. You need help like right away. You need to stop wallowing in your misery and get help. People here love you but when you post shit like this it's an obvious cry for help and when you refuse said help. It is very frustrating. We dont want you to stop posting, we ALL want you to get help. As someone who ignored my fellow OO'ers for years, wallowed in an ant pile of my own misery you may think others don't know your situation, but we do ALL know you need help.

So for the love of baby jesus in heaven and all of his celestial host... GET HELP.

Oops... I just read above. My bad. My advice is still good tho so I leave it.

Hi Draz. Im glad you're thinking of me and all but you do realize I posted this originally 3 years ago....back when everything was still ok

Do yourself a favor. Edit the original post and change the title to 'Vaping talk'.

Or 'Vaping... talk.' Whatever suits you.

Also, cold coffee is fantastic, but only if you have the right coffee. Cold Foldgers/Maxwell House, etc is disgusting. An iced Americano? My favorite cold caffeine drink.

I didn't even notice that. It feels weird knowing I responded to something that was resolved long ago. Sometimes I check the date of the original post first, but of course this time that I didn't happens to be a years old thread.

I nap nearly every day from 5-6 pm. It's my main concession to being old. You have my blessing.

I nap when I dont plan to nap...like during the news. Good thing theres this thing called a dvr with a rewind button. Ive had to use it multiple times in one newscast.

On days off I'll take a brief morning nap to get myself ready for the hard work of clearing space for my afternoon nap.
