The most ridiculous side-effect of Vaping...

beckdg is no troll, lol.
I'm not quite as goofy with the nicotine as he is, but many vapers (especially newer ones) scoff at me when they find out I sub-ohm 24mg on .5Ω-.6Ω single coils and .3Ω-.4Ω dual coils.
I've found that a few nice and dense direct lung hits that deliver the goods to be much better and less irritating than constantly chain puffing away on an e-cig setup that's more "anemic" in comparison. (carto-tank etc)
I don't think the strength and way I vape is the norm though, however much like beckdg, vaping this way eliminated the one side-effect I would get: and that's throat/sinus irritation from the pressure of sucking and puffing on a e-cig chronically all day long.
I work as a chef in a very old kitchen. Equipment from the thirties, and forties. At times the pilot lights on our range tops and ovens go out, and it would seem, I never have a lighter anymore.
On another note, I tend to vape a lot, if I am awake, I am vaping. If I don't make myself put the PV down iIll end up with nicotine headaches from time to time.

The nasal drip is kind of odd, at first I was getting to just nic and had that buzzed feeling for weeks till I cut the nic back. And my sinuses are open for the first time in many many years and my allergies have returned. My friends and fiancée haven't ever heard me sneeze this much.
I occasionally get into a sneezing fit with 100% PG that makes me look like this:
Also, now that I have my big shiny Mutant 26650 mod to carry around, I feel about 30% tougher.

I found out I can sing... I play guitar and one day a few weeks ago I was playing some Billy Joel and just started belting it out and I had control over my voice like I never did while smoking. Not perfect since I lack experience but it was like night and day the difference.
Funny you should mention that. My voice has risen, a lot. Back when I would chain smoke a couple packs of Luckies a day, I could hit really low notes. I've had hotties tell me they could feel it from the dance floor all the easy up to their... Well a direct quote isn't really suitable for polite conversation, but I think you get the point. I was a pretty solid baritone that could sing bass on demand and stretch up in to the tenor range. Now, forget about it, I'm a solid tenor. I can still hit anything in the baritone range, and I can get in to the lower end contralto notes now, but bass range is flat out gone.
I have actually gained overall range. But I think more in the low register. I can hit D3 no problems now and a C3 if I stop and work on it. I used to struggle to hit the E3 (lowest note on a guitar)
[EDIT]Actually I'm not sure now about the numbers... I may be confusing guitar and piano notation. I just remembered that on a guitar score, middle C appears as the note on the third fret of the A string. The lowest C you can play in standard tuning. But I think in piano middle C might actually correspond tonally to the B string first fret...
Anyway, I can go one step lower than the guitar's low E string now. Whatever that actually is scientifically speaking.

I'd say my range improved,it just shifted up the scale. I can still hit some bass notes, but they lack authority for sure compared to what I used to do. I can go higher than my comfort range much more naturally though.
The return of my Geddy Lee-esque singing voice and .....how do I put this delicately.....a little more lead in the pencil, so to speak.
(Which is ridiculous according to my wife

I agree with the increase in vocal range (probably much to the dismay of those that have to listen). As far as more lead in the pencil, I can't attest although I've heard several more mention that as well.
Heh... no pencil here to have more or less 'lead' in, but I made a thread about that particular side effect... http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...93-started-vaping-quit-smoking-sex-drive.html
I don't think it's so much a side effect of vaping as an effect of quitting smoking, though. Definitely the weirdest.

Was that just an Elaine Benes/Seinfeld reference I detected?

Sadly it wasn't.
I now wish it had been, though... let's pretend it was? 
Yes, this! I sometimes feel bad for my friends and family who don't vape because I won't shut up about it!!!
Oddly enough, my beloved cigars now taste like crap!

One time I was vaping while sitting on the steps outside of my house and began to see gorillas in the bushes and a liquid red sky and 3D pentagrams coming out of the sewer holes in the street. But i'm pretty sure that wasn't from vaping.
