    Why I don't miss smoking...

    My home office smells like a bakery instead of an overflowing ashtray. I don't have to douse myself with perfume, hand lotion, mouthwash, and hair spray to cover the smell of smoke anymore. As someone who has had four major surgeries, one of which was an emergency surgery, I don't have to worry...

    JOYETECH ERoll

    I was smoking those tiny little Virginia Slim Super Slims--you know the ones that came in the tiny square box--but I didn't have any trouble adjusting to the eRoll. It still feels like a cig to me, too.

    why exactly is the fda trying to ban electronic cigarettes?

    I think a lot of it is about control, too. I follow politics pretty closely and there are some people who just feel it is their duty or role in life to decide how the rest of us should live. Sometimes, they make laws and regulations with the best intentions or to please a certain special...

    JOYETECH ERoll

    I find the flavor to be a little muted. Not as bad as it was with the eGo-C tanks I used to use, but muted. I usually drip a couple of drops of juice directly on the atty before putting the tank on and I find that helps a lot. The flavor is much stronger then.

    "DUH!" The days you can't help saying it...

    Are you talking about on here or in life outside this forum? If it's on here, I find that not everyone holds the same common knowledge and some questions whose answers seem obvious to me or you aren't to others. If you are talking about outside here, I sympathize and hope your day gets better. :)

    Opinion of new regulations.

    Can you also fix the spelling in the thread title? I'm not a spelling zealot or anything, but every time I refresh the page I think it says onion or something to do with poppies. :)

    Encourage or Discourage eCigs?

    If you'll read through my posts, you'll see that I asked you what your motivation was for starting this thread, but never mind. I try to respond to threads on here because I like to help anyone who is new or curious about other members' experiences. I also like to just chat with other...

    Encourage or Discourage eCigs?

    Smokers are already addicted to nic and are using a delivery system that is known to cause cancer. Switching to vaping changes the delivery system and while still addicted to nic, eliminates the cancer. Some vapers do taper their nic levels until they can quit vaping. Others don't, but you are...

    Encourage or Discourage eCigs?

    Yes. I know what nicotine addiction feels like. I know what it's like to not be able to relax and have fun with friends and family because I'm too focused on when I'll be able to slip away and find someplace to smoke. Granted, that need isn't nearly as bad with vaping, but it's still there when...

    Encourage or Discourage eCigs?

    A person is still your child even if they are over 18. Would you want someone to get your 18+ year old son or daughter started vaping if they had never smoked? I have four daughters over 18 and I wouldn't.

    Vaping is making me Nauseous – please help

    I don't know if this relates to you or not, but do you have juice from different vendors, because there is one vendor who puts something in all their juice that makes it all have the same base smell and I can't stand it. I used to use their juice and love it, but after about two months, I...

    Encourage or Discourage eCigs?

    I can see why a significant other who sees a vaper enjoying the flavors and the hobby aspect and sighing in satisfaction might want to try it with zero nic, but I wouldn't encourage it. I wouldn't encourage my husband to start it as a hobby just to have something to do together. That's how I...

    Over four months down and found yet another pack of smokes!

    When I smoked, my husband used to buy packs and hide them around the house. He didn't like me driving to the convenience store late at night when I ran out, so he would always offer to go instead. Since he didn't want to have to go, he would hide packs that he could grab when I would complain I...

    Days like today make me really happy I vape instead of smoke

    I remember going to hockey games and they decided to ban smoking in the stadium, so they created a pen outside one of the exits using barriers. As soon as the horn sounded to end the period, all the smokers would bolt toward that area and for some of them, it was halfway around the stadium. Once...
