Carnivore Chris Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Cannabis, yes but vaping nicotine makes me feel sick as fuck. I've tried it to stop smoking, but it just doesn't do it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUFC Posted December 24, 2018 Author Share Posted December 24, 2018 What mg of nicotine did you use? Also the settings, and type of mod, might be a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluewolf Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Just the same as smoking in my opinion, just swapping one habit for another and they claim it's better for you but I don't believe that sucking down an oil based product could be any better long term for your lungs than nicotine is.. The long term effects will not come to light until years later just like smoking normal fags.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People consume addictive substances everyday from sugar all the way to nicotine itself. It's just a stimulant even though a very highly addictive one. The main problem with cigarettes is the carbon monoxide which causes cancer amongst dozens of other diseases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted December 24, 2018 Administrator Share Posted December 24, 2018 I don't know the intricacies of the safety of it all but I can tolerate vaping more than actual cigarette smoke. I don't do either myself but I don't mind being around people who vape (yes it's a lot of smoke but it disappears after a few seconds). The smells don't seem to linger anywhere near as much as cigarette smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berserker Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 2 hours ago, Danny said: Do it in private, walking anywhere near a Vaper is like walking through the Undertakers smoke machine It's not toxic (for the non-smokers) so you shouldn't worry about it. As for me, i tried with two different devices and i didn't like none of them, it doesn't feel like smoking at all, you don't get no throat hit at all, and i've tried both 6mg and 12mg i think, none of them feel like a proper cigarette. I want to try the IQOS but the heets are stupidly overpriced here, each box costs more than 4x a normal 20 cigs pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted December 24, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 24, 2018 Dabbled with it a long time ago and as @Berserker said its probably not going to give you that hit from a cigarette that you want. It does, however, deceptively makes you take in far more nicotine than normal (depending on how you set it up). The flavours are also all weird and remind me of something they do in the middle east where they pass the fumes through water and back out for inhalation. I think the only way it gets more popular is through price reduction so that it kills the cigarette business but that industry is so so powerful and has the kind of reach that puts mafia lords to shame.

Azeem Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 What was the real goal of vaping ? helping smoker's quit or stopping people from picking up smoking. It doesn't do either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted December 24, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 24, 2018 At least vaping stops people flinging or flicking cigarette buts all over the place but I have never tried them, as I mentioned in the Do you Smoke thread I stopped smoking over a year ago due to a collapsed lung and have not touched a cigarette since and the smell of tobacco nowadays makes me cough.

Harry Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I've actually contemplated taking up smoking lately. Just as an occasional thing to have a pack in the car to light up after work as a once a day thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Main motivator would probably be to rebel against some of the current hyper paranoias of society. People these days are curtailing too many things due to conventional wisdom and living in fear of germs and radiation and fumes and every other thing... its the opposite of hardening up of society.... more people should just do what they want to do.

The rebel part sounds a bit weird to me unless you're 16, but if you really want to smoke 'occasionally' then at least go for pure tobacco products (cigar, pipe tobacco) instead of cigarettes which are just junk leftover tobacco with a shitload of additives rolled in bleached paper.

Instead of smoking start eating food wrapped in newspaper and go to road side food stalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
