Stroszek

People only really smoke for one reason. It releases tension and stress. That's the upside - if that's what you were wondering - and it is very effective in that respect. Nicotine seems to help me think more clearly as well but that's probably just because my brain can't function without it anymore. And of course it also decreases appetite. This sounds horrible but anyone who's been a smoker for a couple years or more has, at least once in their life, smoked an extra two or three or twelve cigarettes in place of a meal. I started smoking fairly late in comparison to most. I was 18 and things weren't going so well for me. At that point it was either become an alcoholic or start smoking. I went with smoking and it honestly helped out quite a bit. Thanks to cigarettes I can now interact with other people on a nearly competent level. I can't really say that I regret smoking. It would be like regretting that you don't exercise enough or don't have the best diet or that you never learned how to pole-dance. (maybe not that last one) Though the downside is a little more obvious with smoking. It's just one of those things that you keep on doing even though you know you probably shouldn't simply becuase you like doing it. Like pole-dancing. Hope some of that information was something like what you were looking for.

Hello everyone. Seemed like now was as good a time as any to start typing things at people. Stroszek from Wisconsin. (If you've seen the movie, you've got a pretty good idea. That's what it's like here.) There are lot's of things that could be said about me, none of which are interesting in any way whatsoever. But while personally, I'm am a very dull individual, my brain does not work at all they way it should. This may result in some degree of confusing and or silly behavior on my part and I apologize in advance to all of you that I will likely confuse or disturb in the near future. Think of Vladimir in "Waiting For Godot" - if that means anything to you. That's not too far off from the way my mind works. And don't ask if I have any carrots. I've only got turnips....and one black radish. Legitimate Addendum: Who is the girl in the little BZ banner/logo thing at the top left of the forum?
