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

[IrishUpstart]

Being too lazy to walk the 2 blocks from the pub to the corner store and opting to pay "bar prices" for a pack of smokes. Like they weren't expensive enough.

Co-workers complaining about smoke breaks.

Before our boss completely stopped all smoke breaks, he'd let the non-smokers who weren't busy come outside with the smokers because, well, they could and they wanted to. Social interaction, getting outside, relieved a lot of stress.

Now that 90% of us vape, we're no longer allowed to vape anywhere in back of the house (it's a restaurant). We can only vape in the back near the garbage compactor. It's freezing back there. But come 9:45, 10:00 p.m., there's a bunch of us back there vaping away.

EDIT: A lot of juice tasting happens during this time. Few have found their ADV, so it's interesting to see who got vapemail, and from where, and how it tastes. 90% of the conversation while we're vaping is about vaping!

That yellow stain on my fingers, especially when I started rolling and the natural flax papers were so THIN.
Lips sticking to the filter, and pulling the skin off trying to get it loose. Don't remember ever burning my fingers like the others, though.
Having to roll down the car window just enough to stick your hand out in the rain, and getting everything soaked.
Having to pause whatever we're watching because I need a smoke break and refuse to smoke in the house.
Running out of smokes and having to bum a menthol 'cause its all the nearby folks smoke. Newports BLECH.
Getting ash on my pristine black pants having that nerve-calming smoke right before a job interview.

that you now probably won't get for the sole reason that you smell like a cig
