Do you vape?

A common solution for smoking, and a hobby for some. How many of you use electronic cigarettes?

The PICs from tobacco combustion aren't there anymore, but not all the nicotine and other atomized organic compounds are absorbed by the user. The user off gases compounds that I'd rather not breath, so I'm all for confining vapers (not sure what the PC word is) to a ventilated containment area that exhausts outside the building envelope.

In principle it sounds good, but many smokers I've encountered seem to continue to smoke and just us e-cigs to augment their habit when in a no smoking area or someplace that is inconvenient/rude to light up.

Why do you feel the need to politicize this by using the word libtard? It's a simple topic needing simple responses

When someone throws tard on the end of a word it's no different than a racial slur. He's lucky I'm in a good mood.

If I need a nicotine fix I'll throw in a rig of Copenhagen long cut.

I tried the original e-cigs to transition and quit smoking. They tasted so bad, it helped me quit entirely. That was 6 years ago

Some of those camping products look high tech but I have no urge to tryout at this point

I vaped with about a half a year. I honestly feel is a better alternative to smoking. Doesn't smell you can do it indoors, and i didn't get the shortness of breath when working out as i did when i smoked. I say for got it if your considering it.

Ok, there seems to be a lot of ignorance based opinions on vaping, such as it causes this and that, it pollutes the environment(lol) ecigs explode in pockets.....see what I'm talking about?Most of these opinions are baseless.
Miss use of batteries and atomizers,that are not designed for each other may cause battery thermal runaway.....I digress.

Vape on.....simple enough answer?

Maybe I missed those opinions posted here.

Political posts are prohibited so I'm at a loss as to why you'd indiscriminately post a comment like that when its responding to nobody in particular other than to incite a political argument...and I'm not even a liberal
