    Anybody NOT cough after quitting?

    I did frequently have shortness of breath...and I'd get this scary "no oxygen" thing where my head would pound and I'd be dizzy...very, very, very scary. I definitely breathe better with vaping v. smoking...there just is no comparison!

    Halloween Horror Nights 23 Orlando 2013

    Well, yes and no. They have full control of their own fog machines, and liability all set up for any weird circumstances extenuating from that...yours, not so much. :)

    so Marlboro sent me an ashtray...

    Maybe it's because Marlboro doesn't expect its analog users to HAVE a next birthday. :D You might have just taken them by surprise!

    Halloween Horror Nights 23 Orlando 2013

    Go Mommy!!! Right on, Mom! As for the why, I'd say it's because it's so hard to police who's actually smoking v. who's vaping since they look the same, and with all the crowd control involved in keeping a sometimes rowdy, very bored group under control, it's easier just to give it an...

    Why so many members take issue with the FDA

    Exactly. "Just vote people out" or "just put in your vote" isn't such an easy answer.

    Why so many members take issue with the FDA

    We can try (and I'm quite sure most of us do), but don't forget, each of us adds up to only one vote. That can add up to a lot, but then again it can add up to a lot on the opposing side of a given issue/given candidate. Sometimes, you're just overruled, period. It frustrates me sometimes when...

    so Marlboro sent me an ashtray...

    Ha ha! I'd probably just use it to hold jewelry or bobby pins in.

    Anybody NOT cough after quitting?

    Weirdly, although I did cough *while* smoking, I swear I never coughed while quitting. I was quit for 5+ years before taking up vaping so I know for sure it never happened. ;) I remember waiting and waiting for "all the black stuff" to come up like I'd been reading about on quitting forums...

    Parents dont let me vape, help.

    I'm 99% certain HauntedMyst was just being funny, but if my child actually did say something like that to me I definitely would pull all financial (current and future) resources I'd up til that point had divvied up for him and sock it into a retirement fund for myself and my husband instead...

    Ha ha, same here, but I'm pretty sure HauntedMyst was just being funny.

    Parents dont let me vape, help.

    I'm not so sure about this. He is still a kid, after all (sorry, OP). He wasn't trying to be blatantly disrespectful, he was just trying to get away with something...which all kids do, usually many times over. He didn't get away with it. I think he's approaching this in quite a mature manner...

    Parents dont let me vape, help.

    This is an entirely different situation from the OP's. When he begins to pay half of the household expenses, I imagine he should then have a say in whether or not he vapes in their house. But obviously, that time has not come so this is not the issue at all.

    Parents dont let me vape, help.

    Huh? It's THEIR house. Yes, they can stop him. That said, it sounds like the OP is being very respectful in his approach, which is great. If the answer is still no, then it's no, but he did go about it respectfully...as it is his parents' house and not his.

    Can E-Roll Battery Be Used w/Other 510 carts?

    Okay, thanks, both of you. :) I don't think I'll be buying this one.

    Oh, my god...I've lost my mind...

    The first step is admitting you have a problem...the second step is getting away from enablers like all of us...but we like you so much that we don't want you to do that, so maybe I just shouldn't be telling you about that second step...

    For all the wheeze- and cough-prone vaers, seeking juice recommendations.

    LOL, well, it doesn't taste like what I'd imagine goat juice to taste like, eew. Goat is actually the brand name...the flavor is Mint.

    Columbus Day - The Hatred of VapeMail

    I didn't even realize this was a federal holiday...I mean obviously it must have been so every year until this point but somehow this year it went right over my head...just waiting on some new tips and some carts.

    Indeed! ;)

    Can E-Roll Battery Be Used w/Other 510 carts?

    Question speaks for itself. :) Can the E-Roll batt be used with non-E-Roll 510 cartridges? Also can it be charged on a non-E-Roll 510 charger?

    Parents dont let me vape, help.

    My parents smoked like chimneys and I didn't smoke in front of them until I was well into adulthood and until they told me it was okay to smoke in their house. Yes, I know it stinks but that's the fact of being a child in one's parents' home. There are a lot of things they probably don't let you...
