Non-Douche Vape Megathread

Oh guys, are you vaping now? I see that more more people say bad things about vaping. What do you think?

i don't do tobacco products any more, and i've never been able to get weed vapes to work well for me. i choke. it's probably not much less dangerous than smoking.

I totally get where you're coming from. I used to smoke cigarettes too and made the switch to vaping not too long ago. Honestly, I do feel better using a vape. I might even be more hooked on it than I was on cigarettes, but at least I'm not dealing with smoke, ash, and that constant cough anymore. It's a weird trade-off, but feeling healthier and not smelling like an ashtray all the time makes it seem worth it.

For anyone looking to explore more about vaping or find something that suits them without going into the whole competition scene, I found a lot of useful info and options at https://nexussmoke.com/. They've got a wide range of products that can help you find what works best for your needs without the extra fluff.

I keep seeing these tough guy bearded construction worker types with their cute little pastel devices and treacly exhalation and it's funny every time.

I don't like talking about it much because I loathe vape culture.

A few times over the years I've had to go into a physical vape shop rather than ordering online, and it's some of the cringiest experiences I've had. They're just...so into it. Like a passion or hobby. Pretty weird stuff.

I interacted with someone in a clinical setting who lost his whole social life and sense of purpose when NY state outlawed flavored nicotine products, which essentially eradicated many vape shops. He was so invested in vape culture that all his friends were vape shop dudes, and his only hobbies were modding gasblasters and spewing vapor from his face. MF completely crumbled when that scene evaporated.
