    Chantix or vape? It's a no brainer

    Years ago, I tried Zyban (precursor to Chantrix) to quit. It had similar side effects. I quit for 11 months. The only side effects I had were some whacked-out dreams. I'm talking wake-up-with-a-startle-sitting-upright-quick type dreams. For those few seconds after waking, you thought your dream...

    They really screw ya if you don't DIY juice.

    "screwed" ?? Nah. I buy prefilled cartos because I have no desire to turn my kitchen into a science experiment. I have no desire to have several tupperware containers filled with all the necessary gizmos and whatnots to mix my own. I have no desire to create that which has not been...

    Smoking on a Cruise

    No worries, we'll be on the Magic, a two year old ship. Not that that really means anything, but the troubled ships of late were much, much older. Oh, I'm taking 7 batteries, 3 charging systems....

    Why are so many people against non-smokers vaping?

    Rocketpunk- That Long Bottom Tooth reference was hilarious !! Only those that watch Family Guy will get the humor.

    Smoking on a Cruise

    Actually, we always get extended balcony room because I was a smoker. So chances are I'll be on the balcony as usual, we spend a lot of time on the balcony eating (free room service), reading, playing dominoes if we aren't at an onboard show. I just don't like being TOLD I have to hang with...

    Smoking on a Cruise

    Trying to think ahead, I know I won't be a jerk on the ship if I get harassed, but I have a plan to write a strongly worded letter to the Powers That Be if I am. Something along the lines of this: Dear _____, I recently completed a cruise to the Eastern Caribbean and completely enjoyed myself...

    Why are so many people against non-smokers vaping?

    I strongly believe in freedom of choice, freedom of speech, etc., and when asked for my opinion, I will offer it. I would never give my blessing for any addiction to another, whether or not I have said addiction. Yes, vaping for me has been a life changer. I'm extremely glad I've discovered...

    Lost My Ecig in a parking lot :(

    My loving, supportive wife was in the passenger seat, eyes straight forward and in a quiet low voice she says: dumba$$ :laugh: Gotta love her

    Lost My Ecig in a parking lot :(

    I almost threw my cig-a-like out the car window while driving because I was "done". THAT would've been a costly "oops" !! At the last second as it passed in front of my face I went WAIT !! :)

    Can't stop the roller-coaster!!! Anyone with similar experiences?

    You need more supportive friends; looks like they get some perverse joy in seeing you "fall off the wagon". When you ask to bum one, they should be good friends and refuse to give you one. I have a friend that smokes and last time we went out he said he was going to the restroom. He came...

    If I vape with nic can I say I am smoke free ?

    A couple years back, my wife and I got some additional life insurance. The agent asked if I was a smoker, I sheepishly said, "yeah..." He asked if I thought I could not have a single cigarette for 2 solid weeks. I asked why. He said he'd take the mouth swab on my wife, but put in his report...

    exhale through nose?

    I never exhaled through my nose when I smoked. Oh, I tried, because it's so "manly", but whenever I did, my eyes would tear up sumptin' fierce !! :tongue: I smoked for 24 years and the only time I exhaled through my nose was after I took a drag and someone made me laugh or snort. Too many...

    Who vapes at work?

    I do, and my boss is seriously considering paying for my cartomizers under a wellness program and increased productivity as I no longer take smoke breaks and I no longer have "that cough".

    Do you hear " IT's STILL SMOKING" ???????

    Ironically, I did !! His response ? "Nice try. You breathe in highly diluted "fog" for maybe two hours at a concert or nightclub. You're breathing in that crap full strength constantly all day long. Drink one shot of whisky, no problem. Drink the whole bottle, you die." BTW, he lives for...

    Things I don't miss about smoking...which have nothing to do with health...

    Running late for work, grabbing your pack off the table and 10 miles down the road realizing you grabbed an empty pack. Quick stop at the store to buy one over-priced pack, back on the road and realize your lighter is empty. Naturally, your full lighter is on top of your full pack at...

    Do you hear " IT's STILL SMOKING" ???????

    Yep, I've heard, "So, when are you gonna quit those ?" "You're just switching from one addiction to another" "They have chemicals in them too, y'know." When I say that the chemicals are food grade safe, one non-smoker just laughed and said "That means NOTHING. You're INHALING it, not eating...

    Did You "Reward" Yourself For Quitting ?

    I decided to give my car a good cleaning; get rid of the last remnants of my analog days. To make it even more rewarding, I didn't even do it myself. I dropped my car off at a detail shop and told them to clean everything, saddle soap the leather seats, the whole nine yards. I drive a smart...

    Vape Spending: Going overboard or not?

    As of right now, I am WAY over spending; and I have no problem with it. I use a Green Smoke cig-a-like set up, by far not the most economical way to go. Right now I have 50 prefilled cartos in different flavors in zip-lock bags, another 20 on the way. I'm saving all used cartos in case I get...
