The old stapler trick

Fags1 profile image
4 Replies

In order to take my mind off cravings, I take a regular stapler and pop a staple through one of my cheeks whenever I feel an urge.There is some swelling and discoloration,a reasonable expected amount of discomfort and pain, early signs of septicemia and gangrene, it hurts when I laugh, yodel or honk and my face involuntarily points to magnetic north at all times. However, day 15 and no fags. I must be doing something right.

Fags :D
