    I think I have a problem.

    Altsmoke has a pretty big web presence. I have bought from them several times, and the service was great. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again. Their prices online aren't the lowest, but are fair, IMO. If they had a B and M near me, I would go. Congrats on your decision to start...

    First Halo Experience

    Halo is a great vendor. I felt exactly the same way as you with the Tribeca. The first juice I ever had was a relabelled Dekang juice called Turkish,and later I got some Aroma juice called Sahara. All three tasted very similar, but I prefer Aromas juice better (for obvious reasons). I really...

    My parents are smoking again..

    I agree with the above. While I'm not "old" yet, I think my 21 year old step daughter thinks I am. :D I was a "crochety old lady" when I was in my 30's, so age really has nothing to do with it. Although as we get older, we do tend to stick to what we know works. I love the "idea" of vaping...

    Any TJ/Jeep owners vaping.

    This is the only pic I have of mine--I have one of me in front of it so you can see it much better, but I don't have it on my computer. 2003 Liberty Renegade 4X4. Nobody laugh, it was actually a pretty mean looking little truck. I wanted to have a vanity license plate that said "TONKA" cuz...

    I Give Up On E-Cigs For Now

    Well since we are/were both smokers for 30+ years, I (and I'm sure he) never got buzzed from cigarettes. I did get buzzed when I switched to ecigs though, and I didn't like it. :tongue: That went away after a couple of weeks. So to answer your question about why he hates it, there's a...

    I think you can't generalize on that...all my friends and I (who smoked ) came from non-smoking households. I was the only one in my family who smoked, excluding 1 aunt.

    Here you go: Trends in Adolescent Tobacco Use - The Office of Adolescent Health Can't post the graph pic, but it's there. That as well as observation--I see far fewer kids smoking than I remember when I was in high school.

    Quite honestly, despite that the makers PSAs think they will help people quit smoking by those, I think they are more effective at keeping kids from starting, or getting them to stop before they have really gotten addicted (regardless of what you think "addiction" means). Why else the stigma...

    Don't have much time, will read more closely later. However, Nope. Actually, when I was 16, I did quit. And even though I'd been smoking for about 3 years (I was a kid so not regularly at home or at school but still smoked), I did quit. Easy-peasy. For about a month, and had no issue. I...

    I Give Up On E-Cigs For Now

    My SO hates it too...quite honestly I believe it when he says it makes him feel bad, but I also think alot of it is created in his mind. Good Luck to you.

    Rough news today

    Just to defend my little (and perhaps irrelevant) post... I agree that trying to scare someone into quitting doesn't work. I grew up in a non-smoking household, and I remember as a small child, when my aunt would visit (who was a smoker) I would beg her to quit smoking. I ended up starting to...

    Any TJ/Jeep owners vaping.

    Does "former Jeep owner" count??? I seriously wanted an FJ after the Jeep killed the 2nd tranny, but it wasn't in the cards... I still miss my Jeep!

    i cant taste most juices.

    I smoked for 30...if you're a new vaper, I think two things happen with juice flavors, primarily. 1) Smoking deadens your taste buds, and it takes a while for them to come back to life. 2) E-juice has a very distinctive flavor, and the flavorings often don't completely overcome the base...

    i cant taste most juices.

    ...and how long have you been vaping? I usually need pretty strong flavors even after a year. For me, it's just me--I like really rich food, and I like really rich vape. But I will say that the flavor really came around the 2 month mark. Prior to that, flavors were difficult to taste. That...

    I disagree to a point...no, they didn't work for me in general. But some are more poignant than others. If it's meant to scare, so is seeing a car that got wrapped around a tree in a teen drunk driving accident, where all the kids died. Depending on how it's presented, it's actually very...

    I saw this after I started vaping...maybe it's because I'm officially "old", but it did more to me than even seeing some of those PSA's on TV. Show him this: http://whyquit.com/whyquit/BryanLeeCurtis.html I started smoking at 13, was a die hard, never-quit smoker by the time I was 18. Quit...

    Halo Midnight Apple - Terrible, long-lasting aftertaste...

    I put some in a cartotank after steeping for 3 weeks. That nasty chemical apple taste contaminated the carto so badly that even after dumping it and vaping two tanks worth of other tobacco juice, it didn't go away. Unfortunately I haven't been able to afford to buy any more cartos (juices and...

    How does Vaping Effect Dogs?

    To clear up any misconception on the whole cats and vaping thing: . This is a specific type of anemia that occurs also if cats ingest onions and garlic. The red blood cells can't stay cohesive, burst, and the cat's body cannot produce enough RBC to replace the dead ones. This being said, I...
