ecig liquid is also gnarly stuff. Get a drop of that on anything and it will smell for days. It's also extremely sticky.

they're not good as in they don't hit well or feel good like smoke and you look like a douche. that's just my opinion after trying it. I thought looking like a douche would be acceptable. But vapor is not satisfying.

also time for my psuedo science but I really think they make your addiction to nicotine much worse. There are some stupid idiots can't stop puffing on them because they don't go out so you can intake more nicotine that way. then there are liquids have have higher concentrations of nicotine. For me it was like trying to get a good satisfying hit over and over, never really getting one. Yet I can feel the effects of the increased nicotine throughout the day and it makes me jittery and crazed. And then I was just like gently caress this sucks I'm going to get a pack

I'm trying to quit tho :negative:

All that regarding most people revert to smoking both or smoking waaaay more nicotine than they otherwise would be smoking is fair.

Is nicotine by itself all that bad for you though? Yeah it's probably not good for you but afaik nicotine by itself is kind of whatever and it's all the other poo poo in cigarettes that makes them so unhealthy. Like maybe you smoke more but at least you're not getting formaldehyde and poo poo.

Just went to a restaurant and it said 'No Smoking' on the window outside and under that a new addition: "No Ecigarettes either."

Like the ecig assholes always get all 'it's not smoke bro it's vapor' that they had to change the sign especially for them. That's how douchey and pedantic they are.

nicotine is somewhat like caffiene in that its mostly harmless; like it does raise your blood pressure and heart rate to worse levels that would be obviously healthier if you just didn't take take the chemical, but by far its most dangerous quality is that its one of the most addictive substances and the more you take, the more you need it and will turn into a loving rear end in a top hat if you go without it or even go without your normal levels of intake

as someone who used to smoke and hated anti-smoking bullshit and everyone associated with it: I am happy that there is now a way to go inside and produce clouds of medically inert (yet foul smelling) vapor and annoy anti-smoking types. anti-smoking was always about the smell, no one gave a real poo poo about second hand smoke, it was just a convenient way to shove regulation down every ones throats

as it loving should be since these asshats insist on blowing huge clouds instead of using it as a discreet way to get a nic fix. i see people doing it all the time when there's kids around and poo poo i dont care if it's harmful or not it should be banned on principle.

Be more considerate of him to stop breathing, actually. Thin out the gene pool.

Yeah I could understand if it was a quick hit here and there but it's the giant, rear end in a top hat vapor clouds every 5 minutes that gets me.

However it's funny seeing these people disassemble their "rigs" or mods or whatever the gently caress when it stops working and they're all drunk and poo poo. Good luck finding that all important washer on the floor of the bar, douche!

the reason you think that is because there are other additives in cigarettes like MAOIs that cause a rush in serotonin and gives you a buzz you cant get from nicotine alone. thats why poo poo like gums and patches are so lovely at getting people to quit smoking cigarettes.

ive never looked into that but id think its probably mostly marketing. dont they use the whole "organic" thing?

e: oh ok turns out there are maois that occur naturally in cigarette smoke even without anything added to them. so same reason for nicotine by itself not being as fulfilling i guess.

I really have no idea why smoke is so much more satisfying but they do say 100 percent additive free.. and there are in fact separate to that, organic packs you can buy. I think that has to do with the Tabacco being grown without pesticides or nongmo or something. Idk. If i smoke camels, then I can reaallly feel the additives.

I use my vape at work because it's weed oil and smell dissipates instantly.

At my desk in my office hitting my weed vape. My boss and my coworker asked what it was (they saw it sitting on my desk) and I told them it was an ecig.
