Lobotomy.
You know the old saying: "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy!"

Death, though not recommended, is pretty far up there in the permanence department.

Go to an OTB chess tournament! Your desire to play chess will disappear for a few weeks usually (make sure it's like 7 rounds long).

I have one good suggestion. Play a top chess hustler. Double the bet in the next game every time.

actually most quitters do in fact quit that is why scholastics are such a failure

Goes to show quitting is easier when you start young. 10,000 hours of practice in quitting works quite well according to experts.

If being exposed to chess at a young age ultimately leads people to discover and follow through on the virtue of quitting, that speaks to the resounding success of scholastic programs.
Edit: Basically what the bunny above me said.

Much like chess itself, hours plugged into the practice of quitting also yield much better results than the same amount of time and effort dedicated later in life.

I quit chess twice. I can't afford to do that again, what with all the books and stuff to buy.
You just need a glass of wine.

Pfff ... wine does nothing. Now the same amount of vodka, that's another story. Nothing like a worse addiction to kill the current one.

it can be done. first become a penitent man. ask forgiveness for all the ill gotten gains of the past. then the holy kitteh will appear to you and cleanse your soul.
