I smoked for 20 years, then quit, but an uptick in my social life has led to more drinking/going out, and I've been smoking when I drink. This has been bothering me a lot (health concerns mainly) so I got vape thingy and I like it! I was concerned that I would still want 'the real thing' on nights out, but I dont! The vape hits the spot.

I got a Moto Plus, very well reviewed and cheap @ $55. Ultra compact too. I don't think this model is widely available however.

I'm totally unselfconscioss about, probably bc I'm too old to give a f-

My main concern is that vaping will, beyond just replacing my occasional social smoking, get me really hooked on nicotine again. But hey, it's good by cigarettes and that's awesome.

Goodbye cigarettes, silly phone

One of my local bars banned vaping because there are too many 'sick clouds bro' assholes annoying the rest of the customers.

i had a conversation with a dad outside my preschool yesterday and two minutes in i realized he was vaping, but he was such a ninja with it that i didn't even notice right away.

Tried this again to wean off nicotine, discovered that most are sub-ohm resistance and designed for giant clouds of vapor. Got one with higher resistance and it actually feels like smoking a light cigarette rather than just a harsh irritation in my throat.

Still not willing to do this in public.

I'd consider this if it juice didn't come in such stupid flavors. I also feel like shopping around for a decent widget is impossible without ending up at sites that are basically the 2016 edition of spinning 3D fire skulls and blink tags

It's amazing the number of people who refuse to switch to ecigs because of image (association with fedora dudes/neckbeards etc). I still vape but can't help but feel selfconscious about it!

rip van wanko, Friday, 10 February 2017 21:10 (seven years ago) link

I can't do it in public because of the association but it's cut me back from a pack a day to one pack a week (and then only if I go to a bar one night).

Kiarostami bag (milo z), Friday, 10 February 2017 21:22 (seven years ago) link

i've switched to a small pellet that drops from a plastic tube fixed to a hat that i wear at all times. the hat dings to alert me that the pellet's coming, then i open my mouth and the pellet drops right in there.

They know their demo.

Still haven't figured out the demo of guys like me importing Swedish snus. Hopefully its less embarrassing than the modern snuff enthusiast.

I don't smoke or vape, but I've been getting into watching ytpc (youtube pipe community) videos recently

xp it's just as embarrassing but I will admit to having done the same once

“I’m always surprised when I see an adult with a Juul,” she said. “It’s sort of like seeing my grandma with an Alexa.”

everything we do is like Tide Pods. Everyone in this generation is semi-ironically, like, We’re ready to die.

I’m gonna start juuling

it’s going to be as awkward as when I opened my friend’s front door to greet trick-or-treaters and a large group of middle school students were there and I exclaimed “wow you’ve got a whole squad out here”

and they giggled and went “haha squad”

mh, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 00:20 (five years ago) link

geezers be juulin for a minute, no shame bae

Incredible that the Reefer Madness approach is still being taken in 2018

“We are seeing the vaping and the ‘Juuling’ across the board,” a substance-abuse counsellor in Arlington, Virginia, told a local radio station, surmising that vapes might contain “cocaine liquid.” (It is possible, though difficult, to crack open a Juul pod and fill it with your own liquid. This would be a complicated and perhaps unprecedented way to do cocaine.) An assistant principal in North Dakota warned the Grand Forks Herald about the dangers of e-cigarette liquid, which he had inadvertently touched after confiscating a bottle that he found in a student’s backpack. Soon afterward, he began to feel nauseated and “real emotional,” he said.

You know what will get teenagers to not Juul? Telling them it's a pipeline to exciting hard drugs and getting super high.

Found a juul. Wtf am I supposed to do with this shirt

i love the juul but I'm seemingly allergic and can only vape the mango and, to a lesser extent, mint flavours without coughing up a lung. as in with the tobacco flavoured one i cannot even get enough into my lungs to exhale any visible vapour without having a coughing fit like i just greened out smoking a gravity bong. oh well i would've gotten way more addicted than I've ever been to cigarettes, which I've hardly been smoking lately as I've cut down on booze massively

i've used conventional vapes in the past on many occasions and never had the same issue 乁₍ッ₎ㄏ

Huge owner of the local pizza place has a vape the size of a brick

I've long argued that vapitos need to get over their self-consciousness, but not if you're vape is much larger than your phone. Then u a dork

I dgaf about vape life, but I've had a Juul now for three weeks and haven't had or even wanted an actual cigarette in that whole time. I smoked all day every day for 26 years, so this thing has changed my life.

Hopefully I can wean myself off it by working down to 0% nicotine pods, but I'm setting that goal for six months out.

Anyway, yeah, Juul is rad if you're trying to kick cigarettes.

Johnny Fever, Sunday, 16 December 2018 04:13 (five years ago) link

Also, the cucumber flavor suuuucks, but now I'm stuck with three more pods of it.

Johnny Fever, Sunday, 16 December 2018 04:15 (five years ago) link

I think a neighbour downstairs vapes and it wafts through the floor somehow and is utterly revolting. Ban this filth.

Can someone recommend a device that doesn't crap out within 3-4 months? The advantages of vaping as a way to maintain and not smoke are diminished by what is probably planned obsolesce but it'd be nice to not have to buy so many vessels until I can taper off of nicotine forever

Groove(box) Denied (Raymond Cummings), Tuesday, 8 January 2019 15:23 (five years ago) link

I use an atlantis evo tank + eleaf istick. They've both held up for a couple of years w/ the usual minor maintenance.

woof, Tuesday, 8 January 2019 15:42 (five years ago) link

im on that juul shit for the time being and since you end up throwing so much of it in the garbage all the time it's probably fairly fail-proof? idk it's been 2 weeks

suggest boban (Will M.), Tuesday, 8 January 2019 15:54 (five years ago) link

slightly less wasteful way of using the juul: after they're finished you can pop open the pods and fill them with nicotine salts vape juice. can use a pod like maybe 3 or 4 times that way (also nic salts are cheaper than pods per volume). obviously fucking around with those things is probably not hugely advisable but seems fine

i got a lightly used pax (think it's the original pax not 2 or 3) from my gf's lil bro's partner because they stopped smoking weed a couple years ago and it was just lying around their apartment. it's great, and according to the receipt would've cost me > $200 canadian to be new so I'm pretty stoked

findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 15 May 2019 19:20 (four years ago) link

i also stopped vaping nicotine because i became a much bigger nicotine fiend than i ever was. back on the "few cigarettes when out drinking" bandwagon and feeling better for it tbh.

Another death in Illinois, the fourth. It's very unclear by the way it's been reported, but listening to the two-part "Daily" podcast a couple of weeks ago, this is apparently by no means limited to bootleg THC carts or vitamin E oil or whatever. There's seemingly something else going on here.
