I once peed on an electric fence one night in Germany, and immediately shouted 'Verdammt noch mal'. I couldn't speak German at the time and concluded ...... on electric fences is highly educational.

Try ...... on the third rail in a subway. It’s considered a contact sport here, so to speak. Then again, we also have competitive subway surfing. Which given that the trains run through tunnels makes for a high turnover in contestants.

    She's definitely never had to pee while infected with gonorrhea then.

    My mom said it too.

    Sometimes you just have to pee on the electric fence.

    Good luck. :)

    oops, i didn't post that thread here.
    i started getting severe shortness of breath because i love vaping.
    i'd wake up gasping for breath.
    probably because i tend to chain vape n inhale deeply.
    it's better now because i stopped inhaling.
    that sucked tho.
    turns out, i can do mtl.
    sub ohm is more fun, but is really bad for me.

    so, like it or not, vaping can be harmful for some people.

    i still urge smokers to try vaping, but risks do exist.

    I'm no doctor, but that sure sounds like sleep apnea to me (not a vaping issue). You should see a pulmonary specialist about that... odds are they will do a sleep test (you may be able to do the test at home with a portable device) and if it is sleep apnea they will give you a cpap machine. If it is sleep apnea it is something serious that needs to be addressed, not put off.

    thanks, big, but it happens while i'm awake too.
    i think it's under control.
    vaping less makes it better.
    if i could stop vaping entirely for a few weeks, i'd be fine,
    but i can't.
    I have sleep apnea, and even in the daytime I would sometimes gasp from time to time... like a "catch-up" breath.

    I wish more people would understand that there are limits. If I was a bettin' man, I'd bet we will start seeing some major problems down the line with people who inhale large amount of vapor on a frequent basis.

    Cloud chasing went mainstream because young folks started to control the market, they also largely run the vape shops. So they started telling people they needed massive clouds in order for vaping to successfully replace smoking. And that's when china ran with it and started putting out sub-ohm clearomizers and 30W mods. The sub-ohm cloud-chaser craze officially went mainstream.

    This was supposed to be a smokers' market. But now it has been turned into a lie and a sport.

    If you want to partake in the extreme, you suffer the consequences eventually. But what pisses me off the most is that it spoils things for the rest of us.

    BTW: I'm not telling you what to do, but you don't have to inhale deeply or inhale massive amounts of vapor to vape DL. I vape restricted DL most of the time (for better flavor), but I'm a tootle puffer, as some people call it.

    Hi everyone, I’ve been vaping for almost 6 years. It wasn’t this way in the beginning, but if I lay on my back now, even with a few pillows, it hurts to vape lying down. I use Apollo products based out of California and vape at around 80W most of the time. It’s starting to worry me. Has anyone else experienced this?
    Try laying down and breathing deeply or breathing however you usually would when you vape but without vaping. Then you'll know if it's deep breathing is causing this pain or if it's something related to what or how you're vaping and then take that information to your doctor. It's fine to get other people's opinions and find out if anyone else has had this situation but you don't want to end it there if you're worried about something you really do need to see a doctor they're going to be able to pinpoint what's going on much better than anyone here. Hope everything turns out okay

    The issue is not one of proportion or suitability. Some of us love every kind of vape. There's a time and a place for everything. There's also a place for tolerance of others preferences as well as their sensibilities.

    Good luck. :)

    If you really think vaping is that bad for you quit, but 99.9% of people vaping don't have health related problems and the 0.1% should be scheduling appointments with their doctor instead of posting speculation on forums.

    I also think it's rather ridiculous to be making claims like DL vaping is going to kill you sooner than MTL vaping without any evidence of that being the case.

    My Dad's a DL vaper who was diagnosed with COPD right before he switched to e-cigs almost 8 years ago, he now beats my super athletic mother in breath tests and the doctors have forgotten he ever had COPD.
