    With NY resolutions in mind, my cousin, who is always 'cutting down' on smoking [so much so that he should produce new formed cigarettes from his mouth, ie, smoking in reverse], told me on New Years day that he'd given up smoking for good. Yesterday he proudly informed me over the phone that he'd only had 3 cigarettes that day. It was 9.30am.

    There's doing it and there's bullshitting oneself. Later, after I'd met up with him, I overheard him telling the story to a mutual friend of how much he'll save over the year [about £1200 he reckons] This estimated total is £100 up on the total he told me he'd save when he last gave up smoking two years ago for a whole week.

    And there was I thinking about olive oil fried bread, poached eggs, and curried beans. And a coffee.

    Maybe your brilliant bacon sandwich edges it, but I'm not certain.

    That is just wrong. I often crave green veg, particularly green beans or green cabbage, but never tomatoes.

    I started doing them at uni because the detox boosts brain power and it worked for me so I did them before exams etc.

    weight loss is a glorious side effect :cheesy:

    Isn't "detox" what your liver does all the time regardless of what you eat?

    yeah but by not wasting time checking out the food you are eating it can concentrate on the stuff already in there.

    12 now dead. 5 more people critical, when they drove away they drove into random people on the street :(. They even had a RPG.

    RIP the poor people. Killed over satire pieces in a newspaper. So ****ing sad.

    Why do swear words get masked when you quote some one?

    This type of terrorist activity will only add to the popularity of the anti muslim movement that is building rapidly in Germany with huge rallies taking place in a number of big cities.
    The Muslim's should be wary as we all know how the Germans can react. Hope they are not stupid enough to carry out a terror attack over there

    Unfortunately, I think you're stuck in a normal, non-violent person's way of thinking. A true radical would see your comments as a reason in favour of an attack, not a reason to avoid it. It's in the nutters' interests for things to become difficult for mainstream Muslims as it'll drive people towards the extremists.
