No, I promise. I'm not going to any more.
You can test me. Go ahead, you'll be bored! Honest, I'm giving it up right now. Yes, it's true, I did it before, but it was an empty experience. There was nothing there. So I've given it up completely. You'll see! You can absolutely trust me on this, even when you are not around, I won't sneak out and do it, nosireee!
OK, so maybe I said I'd quit before, and then I didn't, but this time it's REAL. I've grown up, and I'm ready to move on. Definitely quitting, right now, no bones about it.
I'm a new man, turning over a new leaf. Not gonna ever do it again.

BUMP
I don't believe it for a second, Roger. I think you'll stop for a while, maybe even a long while, long enough that everyone's forgotten what it was you stopped and what it was like when you were still doing it. And then it'll just happen. You'll wake up and it'll need to be done, not because you miss it or because it's needed, but because that's what you do.
It's a byproduct of your existence. You are there and so it is as well. It hangs over you; you exude it, and it marks you a mile away to any normal person. Birds scatter, coyotes defecate, ostrich kick wildly, lizards camoflage and, mysteriously, hares are drawn to it.
So you'll do it. Oh, yes. You will.
This is just like saying that booze will man up and stop alcoholism.
Or getting Kennedy to switch to dogs.

No. I keep a bunch in a big sack right over the TV, to test my will. I will NOT open that sack. One is too many, and two is never enough, so they say. Every time the bag wiggles too much, I just beat it against the wall a few times until it stops growling.
I will not relapse. That time of my life is over.
Here's a test. Get rid of the sack. :P

No. You can't make me give that up.
Can't you see? IT'S ALL I HAVE LEFT!
I think you're doing it again right this second, Mister!

Don't look. Just leave us alone.
Do you have a minute so I can tell you about JEBUS(TM)? He's the ONLY way you can stop.
